I haven't been following this, but could someone tell me
What difference does it make if the cock was made from another clock or not? Would he still have been wrongly accused and arrested? that is what happened right? I truly don't want to go thru the bull crud articles, how about a synopsis?
And why is everyone on the right lambasting this kid? Is that ethical? Is it moral to do such to an underage teen?
He took apart an old alarm clock, and then installed the components inside a pencil case. He then took it to school and claimed he "invented" a clock.
The school overreacted, or acted in error, believing that it could have been a bomb.
Why did he do this? Innocent mistake, or something else? That's where the question is.
