NEW YORK, June 20 (UPI) -- Police in New York say they arrested a mother for sending threatening letters to a Little League coach after her son didn't make the team.
Investigators said Janet Chiauzzi, 44, of Long Island sent a series of letters to the coach threatening his wife and 14-year-old daughter with violence, the New York Daily News reported Sunday.
Chiauzzi allegedly also sent letters to officials with the East Meadow Little League demanding the coach be fired, police said.
Investigators said a letter also was sent to the principal of the school attended by the coach's children, alleging that he was molesting them, the newspaper reported.
Nassau County Protective Services determined the allegations were false.
Chiauzzi was arrested Saturday and charged with stalking, falsely reporting an incident, endangering the welfare of a child and aggravated harassment.
