A woman accused of telling the Secret Service she would "blow away" Michelle Obama was in federal custody yesterday as the Obama family planned to travel to Hawaii.
Kristy Lee Roshia, 35, was charged with threatening a family member of the President and assaulting a federal agent after being arrested on Sunday less than 2km from the Kailua home where the Obama family planned to stay during a holiday visit.
Roshia called the Secret Service's Boston office last month and told a receptionist, "I will kill Michelle Obama" and "I will kill Marines," according to a Secret Service affidavit.
