Baldwin school board says Loxley woman has issued violent threats

Baldwin County school board officials claim a Loxley woman who refers to herself as a “prophetess” and “militant for God” has threatened them with violence.

Glynis Bethel, who is a defendant in a lawsuit with the Baldwin County Board of Education, said she applied for a pistol permit, has a baseball bat and bought a BB gun to protect herself from corrupt government officials trying to suppress her freedom of speech and detain her daughter for truancy.

Bethel sent copies of a concealed-weapon permit application to the principal of Central Baldwin Middle School and to Baldwin County Superintendent Faron Hollinger. Bethel said she sent the application to school officials to make them aware that she intends to use force to protect her property from trespassers. She said Christians are not allowed to murder, but added she would be willing to shoot someone in the foot.
