BY JENNIFER CABRERA

GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Tiffany Denise Perry, 33, was arrested late last night and charged with sending a written threat to injure or kill.

The victim reportedly told a Gainesville Police Department officer that Perry had been sending her threatening messages on Snapchat for about four months; the victim said she thought Perry was sending her the messages because Perry thought she wanted to steal her boyfriend, but the victim said she had no intention of doing that.

The victim reportedly provided screenshots of messages to the officer that showed Perry saying she would shoot or kill the victim, along with a message saying Perry would be getting a pistol.

Post Miranda, Perry reportedly admitted that she and the victim had been in disputes over Snapchat and admitted that she had sent messages saying she would kill the victim if the victim came to her house.

Perry has one misdemeanor conviction and a juvenile history. She will be released on her own recognizance with a GPS monitor or held on $10,000 bail, depending on whether she is approved for the GPS monitor.
