Prosecutor says S.C. student to face WMD charge
CHESTERFIELD, S.C. (AP) - April 22, 2008 Prosecutor Kevin McDonald says 18-year-old Ryan Schallenberger
(SHAL'-en-burger) also will face two lesser federal charges
stemming from his scheme to detonate explosives in a suicide attack
on his high school in Chesterfield, a town in northeastern South
Carolina.
The news came less than an hour before Schallenberger
(SHAL'-en-burger) was to appear in court for a bond hearing.
Schallenberger (SHAL'-en-burger) was arrested Saturday after his
parents called police because he had ordered 10 pounds of ammonium
nitrate.
Police say they also discovered a hate-filled journal lauding
the Columbine killers.
