That's a prediction.

It is by no means illegal to predict the likelihood of a copycat with the same motives as the original.

And unless you can conclusively prove her intent to commit harm, you can only investigate. You can't arrest or charge her without violating her right to free speech.

Her prediction is entirely plausible. The general public is completely pissed at the entire industry over this kind of behavior.
