Welcome to Arrest Stories. A fifty-one-year-old inmate at the Myrtle Beach Detention Center faces additional charges after allegedly threatening to kill multiple jail staff members while intoxicated. Here's what may have happened.
Anthony Clinton Wilson was already serving time at the Myrtle Beach Detention Center in South Carolina when the incident occurred on Thursday night. According to police reports, Wilson was intoxicated when he began making violent threats toward jail staff members.
Wilson allegedly pointed at each of five victims while making specific death threats. Police reports indicate he told staff members "I'm going to shoot you in the head" and "I'm going to shove a gun down your throat." The threats escalated when Wilson reportedly "stated that he will follow them home and kill them."
The situation became so volatile that responding police officers could not make direct contact with Wilson because he was being highly disorderly with staff members. The threatening behavior occurred while Wilson was already incarcerated, adding new charges to his existing legal troubles.
Wilson was formally charged on Thursday with threatening jail staff members. The incident highlights ongoing security challenges within detention facilities when inmates become combative with personnel.
The charges stem from Wilson's alleged verbal threats made while pointing at the five staff members. His intoxicated state at the time of the threats was noted in official police documentation. The specific nature of the death threats, including references to firearms and following victims to their homes, elevated the severity of the charges.
Wilson's bond has been set at ten thousand dollars for the new threatening charges. The case demonstrates how additional criminal charges can accumulate for individuals already within the correctional system when they engage in threatening behavior toward facility staff.
The Myrtle Beach Detention Center staff involved in the incident were identified as victims in the police report documenting Wilson's alleged threatening behavior.
