The family of 14-year-old Muslim student Ahmed Mohamed is planning to take legal action against the school for calling police after a teacher discovered a “homemade clock” that looked eerily similar to an explosive device, while questions continue to be raised about whether the incident was a “purposeful hoax.”
Amid comments from electronics experts who say it appears that Mohamed simply took apart a 1970s era alarm clock and reassembled it in a pencil box, Judge Andrew Napolitano said the family may face charges if the incident is proven to be a publicity stunt.
If this was part of a purposeful stunt and if the parents were involved in this and if everybody from Mark Zuckerberg to President Obama fell for this, this is not good, Napolitano said in an appearance Monday on “The Kelly File.”
After being arrested, Mohamed was invited by Obama to bring his clock to the White House, and Zuckerberg, the founder and CEO of Facebook, invited the student to his headquarters.
As a result of the media uproar over the incident, legal and scholarship funds were set up for Mohamed, resulting in thousands of dollars being donated — which Napolitano said could bring more troubles for the family.
If the parents were involved in the hoax, now you now have a fraud going on because money has been collected on false pretenses, he said.
The Fox News senior judicial analyst said all the attention over the case is because the student is Muslim.
“This is people overreacting because of his last name, or his skin color, or the atmosphere of fear, he told host Megyn Kelly.
We saw a clock, we assume its dangerous,” Napolitano added. “The kid who made the clock, or brought it in, has a Muslim ancestry. I wish race could be out of this, but all of that goes aside if this was some sort of a purposeful stunt.
Of course it was a hoax.
It was assembled and packaged purposely to create a reaction so the father could sue.
Mohamed’s sister, Eyman, said she was suspended from school in a bomb scare that took place in 2009.
The family has a history.

The fraud’s sister also threatened to bomb the school.
The ‘apple’ does not fall far
from the Islamic terrorist tree.
I believe there are a whole lot of #blacklivesmatter people paying attention to this for a new way to get attention and freebies.
“I wish race could be out of this,...”
What race are Muslims?
You'd think the judge would be aware of this.
Race?
What race?
Is Texan a race?
No more than muslim is a race.
Even Judge Napolitano, who knows better, mistakenly helps support the narrative that muslims are a race and subject to racial discrimination.
The scariest part of this whole incident is how Obama jumped on an opportunity to further his agenda without first finding out the truth behind the story. If this does not illustrate his immaturity and poor Judgement I don’t know what does. I’m sure Soros will take him to the woodshed for acting on his own.
I think people make mistakes when they speak too fast.
He probably meant: “I wish religion could be out of this”
OTrauma knew the truth, count on that. He went ahead in full foreknowledge.
RE: The scariest part of this whole incident is how Obama jumped on an opportunity to further his agenda without first finding out the truth behind the story.
Heck, the kid got invited to the United Nations. He wants to make this an international incident.

My dream is to raise consciousness against racism and discrimination, he said at a New York press event with Turkeys Islamist Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu, according to an article in the Turkish newspaper, HurriyetDailyNews.com.
“Mohameds sister, Eyman, said she was suspended from school in a bomb scare that took place in 2009”
She was only suspended? Not prosecuted?
The whole family should attend a “ Why you should not take apart a clock and put the parts in a small box that look like a bomb and take it to school management class”.
“Even Judge Napolitano, who knows better, mistakenly helps support the narrative that muslims are a race and subject to racial discrimination.”
His PC chip kicked in at the end of the article.
Publicity stunt and a manufactured crisis.
Confrontations like this may become a daily occurrence if steps are not taken to do away with Political Correctness, which has to do with meting out different levels and scopes of punishment for differing ethnic groups.
A six-year-old takes bites out of a Pop-Tart, so it resembles a semi-automatic pistol, immediate and purposeful suspension.
A 14-year-old Muslim boy takes a device that looks suspiciously like an explosive timer to school, well, ha-ha, funny joke.
Not so funny when a similar-looking device that actually is hooked up to C-4 explosive is carried into a crowded shopping mall.
