That’s a great offer, but if that is his girlfriend he is WAY too close according to Liberty standards, isn’t he?

Johnston County Superintendent Ed Croom reviewed the case, Wood said, and agreed to forgo the recommended 365-day suspension and to allow Withrow to finish out his high school career, beginning May 13, at an alternative school.....
Withrow’s even received scholarship offers from Harding University in Searcy, Ark., and Liberty University in Lynchburg, Va.
“We think he is a victim of a system that is a little bit, maybe, too overly sensitive to certain things,” Liberty Chancellor Jerry Falwell Jr. said. “There has to be room for honest mistakes, and right now, I don’t think the law does that.”

This was nice of Liberty but posted yesterday here.
I was at the laundromat today, and they had Fox News on the TV. Megyn Kelly was talking about this. The kid pulled into the school parking lot, realized he’d left his skeet rifle in the vehicle, went to the office and called his mother to have her come to retrieve it. The Principal or Vice Principal overheard him, called the cops, and the rest is history. She also mentioned that two teachers have done the same thing, but they were only suspended for 3 days and not charged with any crime. It figures. The teachers belong to a union and are given preferential treatment, and a pass. The kid has the book thrown at him. Hope they sue.
Interesting that the Vice Principal was caught with a gun on campus and nothing happened to him. Vice Principals usually deal with all discipline issues, so it’s likely that he was alerted to this incident even before the cops were called. How interesting would that be...
