ST. JOSEPH COUNTY, Ind. --A 28-year-old woman who was upset with the birthday gifts her mother gave her, threatened to kill her mother and the police conducting the investigation, according to court documents.

On February 5, St. Joseph County Police were called to the 12000 block of Kern Road to investigate a threat Elizabeth Gerber made against her mother, according to reports.

When officers arrived, the victim told police her daughter, Gerber, was upset about the birthday gifts she received the day before and had been texting her threats all day, according to reports.

Gerber wanted her mother to give her cash, reports said.

Officers examined the victim's phone and saw a text that read, "I'm coming to get my [expletive deleted] money n if u don't give it to me I swear on everything I love I will kill u," according to the probable cause affidavit.

While at the victim's home, she received additional texts from her daughter. In one text, Gerber allegedly said she knew the police were there and if they continued the investigation, she would kill them, according to the probable cause affidavit.

Gerber then allegedly said she would wait until the police left and when they did, her mom would be "done," according to reports.

Gerber also allegedly threatened to drive her car through the victim's living room if police didn't leave.

While officers were at the victim's home, another officer located Gerber in the parking lot of Grissom Middle School. When the officer drove near Gerber, Gerber pulled out of the parking lot and traveled down Kern Road at a high rate of speed, reports said.

Once Gerber go to the victim's home on Kern Road, there were other officers waiting with their lights activated and she stopped, reports said.

Congratulations to the cops. They managed to resolve this wretched mess without killing any dogs (or people), or tasing anyone in the genitals.

Other police agencies should study their techniques, and learn from them.

“[Police] located Gerber in the parking lot of Grissom Middle School.”

On her way to school, no doubt.

For your info.

As per your analysis in situations like this, there is no way this person can fit into a normal family and society.

"Gerber was taken into custody on one count of resisting law enforcement, two counts of intimidation and one count of unlawful use of a police radio.

A no contact order has been issued in this case."


Wonder if she'll honor that "no contact order".

I am completely Pro-Life. Hardcore.
I oppose any designation of a human as a “useless eater”.
I oppose euthanasia by government or medical professionals.

But, honestly, I have no idea what we are supposed to do with 28-year olds like this. Mental institution, I guess. But those places would overflow if we actually put all of the hopeless people there. We just have so many hopeless people now.

The only good thing about that scary photo is that it draws attention away from the poorly written article. Where was the editor for this piece?

This might help keep things in perspective, for anyone who has ever had minor squabbles with their adult children. :)
