CASHTON, Wis. (WKBT) — A former Cashton educator charged in connection to a hit list has agreed to a plea deal.
As News 8 Now first reported in July, investigators say Michelle Herricks wrote a list of teacher’s names and the phrases “shoot em, stab em, blow em up” and made it appear like two students wrote it.
A security camera caught Herricks dropping the note in a school hallway. She told police her son had problems with one of the students at the top of the list, but she denied any involvement.
Herricks and prosecutors reached a diversion agreement. She agreed to plead guilty or no contest and complete a two-year program that includes therapy, community service, and paying court fees. In return, Herricks will not serve a sentence.
