Minnesota woman arrested for threatening to eat neighbor's children

Minnesota police say a 38-year-old woman was arrested and has admitted sending anonymous threats to a family that said she wanted to taste and lick their children.
(...)
The first anonymous threat arrived Sept. 27 by mail. The two short sentences said, “The children look delicious. May I have a taste?” The family lives in a Champlin neighborhood and they have two elementary school students.

Then, the family began to received magazine subscriptions.

“Instead of a name on the address label it said things like ‘tasty children’ along those lines,” Champlin Deputy Police Chief Ty Schmidt said.

Champlin police traced the magazines and last Friday arrested Carrie Pernula.

Pernula, when confronted by investigators, admitted to sending notes and magazines because the children at that house were “always putting stuff on her porch.”
