Rural Frazee woman charged with felony threats of violence

Detroit Lakes, Minn. (KDLM) – A rural Frazee woman was charged with felony threats of violence and misdemeanor disorderly conduct stemming from an August incident with a domestic partner where she allegedly told the man that she was going to shoot him.

On Aug. 25, emergency dispatchers received a report from a man who said 58-year-old Cheri Lee Mayberry of rural Frazee, with whom he had been living with for the past three years, threatened to shoot him while they were speaking by phone.

The man reportedly told Mayberry that she needed to find other living arrangements and she responded by saying, quote, “I’m going to shoot you between the … eyes,” before hanging up.

The man believed Mayberry had access to multiple firearms, thought the threat was credible and called law enforcement.

Mayberry was arrested and was released without bail under court ordered conditions on Aug. 28.

Her next court appearance is Oct. 16.
