LOS ANGELES—A South Bay woman was sentenced on June 27 to two years behind bars for throwing a Molotov cocktail inside a Torrance bank after a dispute with the branch manager.
Gardena resident Teranee Millet, 35, pleaded guilty in March to one federal count of unlawful possession of a firearm and destructive device.
According to her plea agreement, Millet entered a Bank of America branch in Torrance on Sept. 20, 2021. After speaking to the bank manager and demanding to be helped by another teller because she believed she had been waiting in line for too long, she became angry.
When the bank manager informed her that no other tellers were available and she would have to continue waiting, Millet used profane language and yelled, “I’m going to blow this bitch up!” according to her plea agreement filed in Los Angeles federal court….
