She faces no charges in connection with the call.  Authorities added, "While her call was meant to be threatening, it wasn't credible and the woman was never going to carry out the act.

Whew!  The lucky congressman will be able to breathe...if not turn his head and cough,  a little easier.   Read the full story, here.
