Alexandria Justine Greene, 17, of 40 Cemetery Lane in Ringgold, was arrested on Monday at 11:57 p.m. Ms. Greene was incarcerated at the Catoosa County Jail and charged with false report of a crime.
The Catoosa County Sheriff’s Office was made aware of a threat involving a Ringgold High School student that was posted on social media on Monday. The Sheriff’s Office conducted a complete investigation into the matter.
During the investigation, it was found that Ms. Greene, “victim of the threat,” had actually made a fake account on social media. She then made a post making it appear that she was being threatened to be killed at school the next day, and sent the post to herself. Ms. Greene then began sharing the post with a number of other students, causing great concern. The Sheriff’s Office was then made aware of the post and an investigation began.
