According to arrest records, investigators found the man in question, who said he had known Lamarre since high school and never made any threatening posts.
Broward Sheriff's Office officials said they were notified of the threat on Monday and responded to MSD to investigate.
The school was placed on secure status as a precaution, officials said. The all clear was later given and school operations returned to normal.

"You have to take every threat seriously," said school board member Debbie Hixon, whose husband was killed in the 2018 mass shooting. "I live in a world where they didn’t take the threat seriously, and I live without my husband every day."
Lamarre was booked into jail and later she interrupted a Broward judge during a bond court appearance.
"Sir, I'm sorry that this happened, I was diagnosed with psychosis," Lamarre said before the judge implored her to stop talking.
Lamarre was granted a $650 bond and told not to use social media. She also must undergo a mental health evaluation.
"I didn't make any threats," Lamarre said after the judge stated her release conditions.
