US authorities arrested and charged a woman in Hawaii last week for allegedly threatening to kill President Barack Obama's wife, Michelle, days before the Obamas were due to arrive in the state for the Christmas holiday. Kristy Lee Roshia was arrested on Dec. 19 in Kaneohe, Hawaii, by the US Secret Service after determining she had made the threat and had information about where the Obama family would be staying during their visit, according to court documents filed this week. She was charged with making the threat against the first lady and assaulting a Secret Service agent after she was arrested. A federal judge Wednesday postponed a detention hearing for Roshia until a mental competency exam is conducted and she will remain in custody until then, according to court records. The threat was originally made on Nov. 10 during a telephone call to the Secret Service office in Boston and she also threatened to kill a Secret Service agent and Marines during the conversation, the documents said. Agents determined that Roshia was living near a Marine Corps base in Hawaii based on correspondence she had sent to the Boston office that arrived the previous day.
