Teen Brags About Spreading Coronavirus At Walmart, Gets Promptly Arrested

Carrollton, Texas police have apprehended a teenager who posted a Snapchat story in which she bragged about spreading the Coronavirus at Walmart.

18-year-old Lorraine Maradiaga was reportedly taken into custody early Tuesday morning on charges of "terroristic threat" after posting a Snapchat saying, "I’m here at Walmart about to infest every motherf*cker because if I’m going down, all you motherf*ckers are going down." She also posted a Snapchat saying "If you want to get the coronavirus and f---ing die, call me. I'll meet you up and I will shorten your life."

Police say there is no indication Maradiaga tested positive for the virus. She is being held in Denton County Jail, and is ordered to quarantine for 21 days if she posts a $20,000 bond.

If this story sounds familiar, you might be remembering a story from Warrenton, Missouri last month, when police apprehended a young man who posted a TikTok in which he bragged about licking products at Walmart, potentially spreading the Coronavirus.
