Cortez Youth Threatens Librarian: Story Doesn't Check Out

Resolution in the case of a Montezuma County teenager who used e-mail to threaten a local librarian is scheduled for next month.

The youth sent an e-mail from a Cortez Public Library computer to a staff member at the library on Oct. 15, 2009. The e-mail explained his plan to murder the library's director, Joanie Howland, during the Nov. 7, 2009, Library Libations event held at the Cortez Journal.
