MEMORANDUM OF DECISION.

The Defendant, Joan Martin, appeals from her conviction of terrorizing, 17-A M.R.S.A. § 210 (1983), following a jury trial in Superior Court, Androscoggin County. The Defendant challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to prove: (1) that the Defendant communicated threats dangerous to human life; and (2) that the alleged threats had the probable consequence of causing reasonable apprehension that the crime threatened would be committed. Upon reviewing the evidence in a light most favorable to the State, we conclude that the fact finders could have rationally found beyond a reasonable doubt that the Defendant was guilty of terrorizing. See State v. Ann Marie C., 407 A.3d 715, 725 (Me.1979); State v. Porter, 384 A.2d 429" date_filed="1978-03-28" court="Me." case_name="State v. Porter">384 A.2d 429, 434 (Me.1978).

Finding no merit in the Defendant’s other contention that an improper motive prompted the filing of criminal charges in this case, the entry is:

Judgment affirmed.

All concurring.
