It seems like the father set all this up...and not the first time!
No, there is no proof of anything but the exact opposite.
The kid took apart a digital table clock, (radio shack) and then placed the still connected components in one of those little store bought makeup boxes. He then claimed he had built a clock.
He even plugged the damn thing in to trigger the alarm.
As a kid I took stuff like this apart, but I sure never brought it to school in order to get attention for whatever reason. The father is a real piece of work from the Sudan. Apparently they foster a great deal of dislike for the fear Americans have and the actions Americans take, regarding young Muslim men and they wanted to test the system for reasons one can only imagine.
Then they got all indignant.
I think if it looks like a duck, and quacks, it likely is a duck.
