i live in maryland and im 13, i got caught prank calling my middle school and a staff member's home 3 days ago. i started pranking in november than stoped for a month than did it again than stoped again than did it again, and there was a pattern. so when i prank called the school i never did anything threatening, all i did was say eeehhhh for about 2 minutes, i did this twice. but for the staff member i called her son a homosexual, i pretended to be a parent and told her to tell her son to stop selling marijuana to my son, i also called the staff member a B*tch. the cop came to my house and asked me what happened and i told him the truth and i went down to the staff member's house and apologized, the cop said that i have to go to court and the judge will give me my punishment and he said that im being charged on misuse of the telephone. i live in gaithersburg maryland, what will my punishment most likely be? i used a cell phone and used star 67. please just answer the question.

You will probably get probation, have to make passing grades and visit the Juvie probation officer every month or so and prove you are passing all you classes. You will probably be banned from using the telephone for the length of your probation. You may also have a curfew or even be restricted to your home when not in school or with your parents. These are a few of the things I've heard of judges ordering.

Using an interstate telephone line to make terroristic threats is pretty serious these days. If it got to the point that the police actually went to your house = big trouble. A couple of girls somewhere on the east coast prank called some poor lady into a stroke.
Be sure and let us know how you like juvie. Oh yeah - no computer access there, and for sure no phone!

In all likelihood, nothing will be done that you will remember two years from now.
Pity.

I don't think anything will happen... I wouldn't worry... But I hope you've learned your lesson.
