A 28-year-old Tennessee woman is facing multiple felony charges after Palm Beach County investigators say she flooded her former online life coach with more than a thousand phone calls and threatened to kill the woman, her 2-year-old daughter and other relatives. Felicia A. Eze, who resides in Jackson, Tennessee, was booked on Wednesday in Palm Beach County, Florida, on charges that include aggravated stalking, written threats to kill and misuse of a communications device.
Eze had been the victim's client for roughly four months, from April through August of this year, according to CBS12. After that coaching relationship ended sometime between April and August, investigators say Eze did not stop reaching out — she allegedly continued contacting the victim's family and associates even after the professional connection was severed.
The alleged harassment escalated dramatically over the following weeks. The victim reported receiving well over 1,000 phone calls over the span of several days in August, per the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office's account relayed by CBS12. Then, in mid-September, things reportedly got worse: the victim said she received thousands more calls and threatening text messages between Sept. 15 and Sept. 16.
Threats Targeted a Toddler and Other Relatives
According to an affidavit cited by the station, some of Eze's messages did not stop at threatening the victim herself. The messages allegedly threatened to kill the victim, her 2-year-old daughter, and other relatives. Investigators say Eze also sent the victim a photo of herself sitting in a car, claiming at the time that she was on her way to Florida.
Eze now faces a charge of aggravated stalking or cyberstalking with a credible threat, along with written or electronic threats to kill or cause bodily harm and unlawful use of a two-way communications device to facilitate a felony, the outlet reported. Florida law defines written or electronic threats to kill or cause bodily injury under a statute that also covers threats of mass shootings or acts of terrorism, according to The Florida Senate. Separate state statutes on stalking and the enforcement of stalking injunctions, outlined by The Florida Senate, address the broader legal framework for cases involving repeated unwanted contact and threats.
Booking Details and Bond
A booking listing shows Eze was arrested in Palm Beach County on Oct. 7, with a bond of $5,000 set on the two-way communications device charge, while the other two charges were listed with bonds of $0.00, according to a record posted by palmbeachfl.mugshots.zone.
The Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office investigated the alleged harassment and threats that led to Eze's arrest. Beyond the charges and the affidavit details already reported, there has been no confirmation of Eze's custody status, any response from her or her attorney, or how the case will ultimately be resolved.
