A Kentucky high school student who wrote a story about Zombies invading a high school has been arrested and jailed.
Winchester police say William Poole, 18, was taken into custody Tuesday morning. Investigators say they discovered materials at Poole’s home that outline possible acts of violence aimed at students, teachers, and police.
Poole told LEX 18 that the whole incident is a big misunderstanding. He claims that what his grandparents found in his journal and turned into police was a short story he wrote for English class.
“My story is based on fiction,” said Poole, who faces a second-degree felony terrorist threatening charge. “It’s a fake story. I made it up. I’ve been working on one of my short stories, (and) the short story they found was about zombies. Yes, it did say a high school. It was about a high school over ran by zombies.”
Some reports say that he didn’t mention “zombies” in the story that his grandparents unearthed from his journal.
Thanks to the tenor of the times established by the Bushites (who perpetrated the WMD PR fiasco)and the pressures of their fear-inspiring Patriot Act, some Americans no longer can distinguish between fact and fiction, between creative writing and terrorism.
Grandparents turning in grandchildren! Don’t they talk to each other??!! Oh wait, it’s Kentucky — a really RED state, where they blindly follow the country’s blind leader and don’t hesitate to Rush to judgment
I guess none of the adults in Kentucky have every watched Buffy.
