A Gaylesville woman was arrested Monday and charged with Inciting to Riot, after Centre Police launched an investigation regarding a social media post saying that someone “Should burn down the courthouse in Summerville, Georgia and Centre Police Department’.
The investigation began after a screenshot of the social media post by 22 year old Ivy Gober was sent to the Centre PD.
The charge of Inciting to Riot is a misdemeanor – apparently because she didn’t threaten to commit either of the acts herself, the offense did NOT rise to the level of Making a Terrorist Threat – a much more serious matter.
She was arrested and booked in at the Cherokee County Detention Center just after 8:00pm Monday, and was released around 10:00am Tuesday after posting bond of $300.
