Pomona Superior Court Judge Charles Horan further slapped down psychology professor Kerri Dunn because she "turned the rest of the students into suspects, adding that her actions could have sparked major racial violence," NBC Channel 4 reported in Los Angeles.

"He likened her actions to calling in a fake bomb threat, saying it had the effect of terrorizing people."

Deputy District Attorney Martin Bean agreed. "From what I saw in the press, I think the judge accurately characterized the way things occurred on campus."

Defense attorney Gary Lincenberg chimed in: "The court made a point, in the court's view, it's had a large disruptive effect on campus and had a significant effect. I don't think he was trying to call her a terrorist."

Miss Dunn's parents unsuccessfully asked the judge if they could bring the shrink back home to New Jersey to get her mental help.
