A Maryland teen accused of meticulously planning a violent attack at her high school has been sentenced to 20 years in prison after pleading guilty to possessing explosive material with the intent to create a destructive device, authorities say.
Nicole Cevario, 19, of Thurmont was sentenced after entering the guilty plea Tuesday.
Police learned of Cevario's plot after her father read her diary and called the school in March. Within hours of the father's phone call, the honor student was pulled out of a classroom and involuntarily taken to a hospital for a psychological evaluation.
Police believe the diary entries were not empty threats, Sheriff Charles A. Jenkins said at a news conference last year.

Bye bye fresh meat...
It makes me shake my head that the reporters continue to use “alleged” after a person confesses, is found guilty, and is sentenced to prison.

She’s 19, now, so she was likely 16-18 when this happened. How does a teenager become that violent? In my opinion, she should be studied while incarcerated, to try to figure out what the factors were that led her to think that killing people and then killing herself was a good option in life. It would be helpful, I think, in monitoring for this in the future.

If I as a Dad read something like that, I would confront my daughter, not call the school.
If my daughter is an honor student, I would expect a higher grade of intelligence and objective / subjective thinking (processes) than what is being reported.
Perhaps I might even question whoever tagged my daughter with the label "honor student" in the first place and look into what the parameters are to BE one in that school.
Too many questions for me to just say, "Well, bye"
(That's not to mean she isn't a potential murderer, but from what I've read, there is a lot left un answered)
Thank God the father stepped up.
Gadzooks! What a miserable looking duo. Their unpleasant faces reflect the darkness of their souls.
budding female sociopath ... caught and put away before wreaking havoc ... thank God ...
“How does a teenager become that violent?”
budding female sociopath ... this is about the age that sociopathy fully manifests itself ...
