9th grader gets arrested for building a clock | The Compost Bin | Forums

I know this is going to come off as racist, etc., but I really wonder if there's more to this story than we're hearing?  The school resource officer says "Yep, it's who I thought it was"?

Another reason I say this.  Remember a year or two ago, a boy was suspended for eating a poptart into the shape of a gun at school?  Well that school is in the same district that my wife works in.  My wife knew one of the teachers there, who knew the boy well.  She said it was totally warranted.  On the surface these stories sound sensational, but when you dig a little deeper, there's usually more to it.  Just like the infamous McDonald's Coffee suit.  When you read the headline (which is what most people seem to do), it sounds ludicrous that a woman would be awarded so much money for spilling hot coffee on her self.  But the facts were that she had 3rd degree burns from it that required numerous skin grafts.  That the serving temp of the coffee was in the 200 degree range, and that McDonald's had been warned about it and had similar issues on numerous occasions.
