BOSTON (CBS) — A Harvard student has been charged in connection with Monday’s bomb threats which shut down four Harvard buildings and canceled finals for many students.
The U.S. Attorney’s office says Eldo Kim, 20, of Cambridge, emailed several bomb threats to offices associated with Harvard University, including the Harvard University Police Department and the Harvard Crimson, the student-run daily newspaper.
Kim will be in US District Court Wednesday.
According to the complaint, two officials of Harvard University, and the president of the Harvard Crimson, received identical anonymous email messages bearing a “subject” line that read “bombs placed around campus.”
The complaint alleges that the bomb threats specified four buildings on the Harvard campus – the Science Center, Sever Hall, Emerson Hall, and Thayer Hall.
In the email, Kim allegedly wrote: “shrapnel bombs placed in science center, sever hall, emerson hall, thayer hall, 2/4. guess correctly. be quick for they will go off soon.”
Kim was scheduled to take a final exam at 9 a.m. in Emerson Hall. According to investigators, when he heard the alarms go off, “he knew his plan had worked.”
The threats drew authorities from the FBI; Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives; the United States Secret Service; the Harvard University Police Department; the Cambridge Police Department; the Boston Police Department; and the Massachusetts State Police.
Authorities found no evidence of bombs in any of Harvard’s buildings.
The maximum penalties under the bomb hoax statute, are five years in prison, three years of supervised release, and a $250,000 fine.

Mommy and Daddy ain’t gonn’a be too pleased with tickle me eldo
I wonder if he was there on a schlorship?
Eldo Kim?
American citizen?
Financial aid?
Will his student status, whatever it might be, be affected? Or, will he just get some therapy?
The guy didn’t realize that emails can be traced. If he’s that stupid, how did he get into Harvard?
Oh, wait. Obama got in.
Never mind.
Eldo must not have studied enough for his exam.
I bet he wanted abother day or two to study for the exam.
Eldo Kim’s biography, for the curious:
Eldo Kim
Undergraduate, Department of Psychology, Harvard University
Eldo Kim is a freshman intending to concentrate in Psychology and pursue a secondary in Japanese. He is currently a research assistant for Professor Gary King in analyzing partisan taunting. On campus, Eldo writes for the Harvard International Review and dances as a member of the Harvard Breakers. In his free time, he enjoys playing pool, trying new restaurants, watching terrible cult films, and playing with his Mini Schnauzer puppy.
Yes, this seems absurd. This guy has some major issues. Sending threats via e-mail, which is so easily traceable? Did he want to get caught? He’s got issues, that’s for sure.
This guy sounds like Saudi Arabia’s latest ‘Obama’ with discount foreign-exchange-student tuition.
They can also be forged or someone could have hacked his account or got access to his computer.
