Sharifa Nicole Henderson, 34, was arrested in Kansas City Sept. 11, two days after a federal grand jury in the Eastern District of Texas indicted her on three counts of interstate threatening communications.

Anthony’s trial concluded June 9, and prosecutors allege Henderson made three separate death threats against the Metcalf family in the days that followed.

On June 10, Henderson sent a message through Facebook Messenger to one of the Metcalf family members saying she would kill them and put them in a body bag before stating, “now this is a threat take me to court [expletive],” according to the indictment.

Again on June 10, Henderson called the Collin County government, which prosecuted the case against Anthony, and said she would “demolish” the Metcalf family and “strangle” one of them, according to the indictment.

And on June 11, prosecutors say, Henderson sent another threatening message on Facebook Messenger to a family member.

“Don’t worry I’ll kill you next,” she allegedly wrote, according to the indictment. “I will hunt you forever until I kill you…I will be there. You will always have to look over your [expletive] shoulder.”

If convicted, Henderson faces up to five years in prison for each charge.
