this absolutely sickens me

i can see wanting to protect one child. i cannot see nor can i accept trying to cover up for a kid who (allegedly) calls in bomb threats, makes racist calls, takes money for making those calls.

that is unacceptable. no excuses. no trying to blame someone else. it's one thing to pull a little prank. it's another thing entirely to get police, fire fighters, bomb squads, fbi and goodness only knows who else, out on a false alarm. we're talking people's lives at stake here. this is NOT an innocent game or prank. it's sick and illegal and if someone does this, they should be locked up. anyone who knew about it should be tossed in the slammer too. they should get DOUBLE time if they're a parent

in church my big fat ass

at the very LEAST the bio-tch (mommy dearest) knew he made RACIST 'prank' calls. and the bio-tch is SUPPORTING THAT???????????? lock the bio-tch up just on princpal

Teenage Bomb Threat Suspect Was Internet Prank-Call Star

“I heard the prank phone calls he made,” says Annette Lundeby of Oxford. “They were really funny prank phone calls…. He made phone calls to, like, Walmart.” Lundeby confirmed that her son was known online as “Tyrone,” a celebrity in a prank-calling community that grew late last year out of the trouble-making “/b/” board on 4chan. Using the VOIP conferencing software Ventrilo, as many as 300 listeners would gather on a server run by Tyrone to listen to him and other amateur voice actors make often-crude and racist phone calls, some of which are archived on YouTube. The broadcasts were organized through websites like PartyVanPranks.com............

...............Lundeby admits that her son received donations for his prank phone calls, but denies that he made bomb threats. She says her son was with her, coming home from church, at the time of the February 15 phone call that summoned a bomb squad and evacuated the mechanical engineering building at Purdue University in Indiana..........
