RHINELANDER, WI (WSAU) — Bond has been set at $50,000 cash for the man suspected of threatening two Oneida County schools this week.
Adam Bauman appeared in court on Friday where Judge Michael Bloom ordered him held on $50,000 cash with several conditions- including no access to the internet and no contact with any Onedia County school. He also may not leave Oneida County without permission.
Bauman is accused of making threats against the Northland Pines and Three Lakes schools on Tuesday.
According to investigators Bauman a picture of himself holding a rifle with a caption that suggested he needed to find a former employee of Lakeland Union High School, leading officials at both schools to cancel activities and lock down their campuses for the day. He was also expelled from the school in 2019 for walking down the hallways and pretending to shoot into classrooms.
Investigators say the 18-year-old had made other “dark comments” about the gun to a friend.
He claimed he bought the gun this week for home protection and to hunt coyotes. Bauman returns to court on Monday for an adjourned initial apperance.
