Florida Woman Charged With “Delay, Deny” Threat

Tampa’s NBC affiliate reports:

A Lakeland woman was charged Tuesday after police said she ended a call to an insurance company with the words, “Delay, Deny, Depose.” In an arrest affidavit, the Lakeland Police Department said officers were contacted by the FBI on Tuesday, Dec. 10 regarding an alleged threat made over the phone. Briana Boston, 42, had reportedly placed a call to BlueCross BlueShield regarding recent medical insurance claims she was denied.

Near the end of the call, investigators said Boston could be heard stating, “Delay, Deny, Depose.

Boston was charged with threats to conduct a mass shooting or an act of terrorism, according to the affidavit.
