Death threats
Sophia Louise Lamas, 23, a transient, was arrested by Hollister police around 12:25pm on Tuesday for issuing death threats, a felony, after she became upset that a San Benito County Superior Court judge awarded guardianship of her 2-year-old daughter to the child’s paternal grandparents, police said. At the courthouse Lamas said she would kill her daughter before she let anyone else have her, and was then arrested at her mother’s home in the 900 block of Del Rio.
