The story spread like wildfire from Yahoo News! to FOX News, originating with the Odessa American’s original report on the budding fourth grade magician who was accused of “terrorizing” his classmates because he said that he would make them “disappear” with his Hobbit prop.

The spell must have miss fired ‘cause the only thing I see disappearing is the intelligence of the school officials.
Are they suspending the kids dumb enough to believe him?
Can we suspend the “adult” responsible for this stupidity?
