A Virginia man facing an animal cruelty charge is now accused of threatening children.
A woman told police Charles Woodson, 41, of Front Royal, made a throat-slashing gesture toward her three children last week.
Woodson is already charged with animal cruelty. He skinned a guinea pig to make a Davy Crockett style hat, police said.
Woodson told the Northern Virginia Daily he killed the animal humanely and at worst he’s guilty of a hunting violation.
On Tuesday, a hearing was held to determine whether his $2,500 bond should be revoked because of the latest accusation.
A judge ordered a mental evaluation, and Woodson was due back in court Wednesday for another hearing on this latest charge.
His hearing on the animal cruelty charge is scheduled for May 18.
