N.J. Teen Rearrested, Allegedly Made More Threats In Livingston: Police

LIVINGSTON, NJ - A New Jersey teen has been arrested for allegedly making a threat against a Livingston resident, less than a week after he was charged as a suspect in a series of reputed threats to Livingston High School, authorities say.

Police rearrested John Coulouris, 18, of Hackensack, on Friday night in connection with a "threat against a Livingston resident," according to a joint statement from the Essex County Prosecutor's Office and Livingston Police Chief Craig Handschuch.

Friday's charge comes less than a week after police arrested Coulouris on Sept. 19 in connection with multiple social media threats that referenced Livingston High School.

In the earlier incident, Coulouris was charged with endangering the welfare of a child by distributing child pornography, invasion of privacy and two counts of cyber harassment. Coulouris posted bail on the earlier charges and was released from the Essex County Correctional Facility on Sept. 21, authorities stated.

"While continuing the investigation of the earlier charges, detectives from the prosecutor's office developed information about this different threat, which had been posted on a social media platform," authorities stated in the joint news release.

An investigation is ongoing, authorities added.

Bail on the new charge has been set at $100,000, with no 10 percent option. Coulouris will be lodged in the Essex County Correctional Facility in lieu of posting bail, prosecutors said.
