He's had different occupations and abilities to make contact with other children.
The victim said he was very scared and embarrassed by the situation.
It was all talk. They just wanted to disrupt the school.
They described the victim's body as having significant trauma to her.
His concern was for the child and the female and their welfare and safety.
I think what the detectives are looking to do is just basically enhance the chain of custody of that gun for evidentiary purposes.
The relationship at some levels appears to be consensual. However, because the victim was 15 years old, consent is not an issue.
The investigation is still open. Interviews are being conducted, and detectives are working with the state attorney for a resolution.
The kids told the deputy that they were in fact planning to plant some of these bombs at the school. They were planning to disrupt school activities at the end of the year. They were not targeting an individual.
We will review the incident, but at this point we believe the deputies' actions were appropriate.
