What happens when you report someone for threats on facebook?

Not really sure, but that is probably something they have to report to the police. You could probably technically go to the police with that information yourself rather than reporting it to facebook. She's breaking the law threatening you like that.

Well, your situation is a little different from mine, so I agree that you should contact the police because this is obviously an ongoing thing for you. However, I can tell you that when I was being full on being bullied harassed back in Feb this year, and I reported it to Facebook.... absolutely sweet eff all happened.
A girl (originally met her on Y!A, in fact!) and I were Facebook buddies and for whatever reason, we had a disagreement that turned really nasty. We both were saying something pretty horrible things back and forth (on a status update) before I thought this is ridiculous, and blocked her.
But then I started receiving emails from all these made up accounts, saying seriously, unbelievably, wouldn't say to your worst enemy sort of stuff, and every time I got one, I'd just click on the report harassment button, which automatically blocks that person from contacting you. The final straw came when my _MUM_ received an email via Facebook from this girl, (she obviously 'stalked' my Mum by seeing a middle aged woman with the same surname in my friend list!!) and was saying unspeakable things about my brother (my mum's son, obviously!) who had recently passed away.
All I could do was click that report abuse button, and I even sent Facebook an email saying this type of thing is not acceptable blah blah blah. I never even got a personal reply.
So to prevent people from finding you, and to prevent YOU from being able to look at their page, you need to block them.
Then you need to only allow 'friends' to send you email. You can make it so that your name does not appear in any search - and that means 'all' searches. You can also hide your friend list so that only yourself, or your confirmed friends, can see who you are friends with.
