I had a really scarey student once. But, there wasnt' much I could do about it. The school was aware of him, but he was protected because he had emotional issues.

See, that's scary when you recognize a problem and are powerless to solve it.
This whole thing with these bizarre behaviors from kids is a direct result of the break down of the family unit and the "if it feels good do it" mentality. When these murders occur and we learn of the history it is the same story over and over again. These kids don't stand a snow balls chance in hell. They get to that middle school age and they take that turn and the trouble begins. Until the family unit is restored and morals return to society this will repeat itself over and over-sad but unfortunetly true.
