WASHINGTON, Pa. — A Western Pennsylvania college student charged with making threats against his school on social media is heading to trial.
Trevor Howard faces charges after allegedly posting a question on the YikYak app back in February, asking how many people he could kill if he opened fire on the Washington & Jefferson College campus.
The Washington County District Attorney said Howard declined a five-year probationary plea deal.
If the case goes to trial and Howard is convicted, he could face a sentence of up to seven years.
