Kentucky parents concerned after teen who compiled 'kill list' was allowed to return to school

Parents in a suburban Kentucky school district have sent a clear message to administrators: They don’t want a teenager who is alleged to have created a “kill list” of students back in the classroom with their children.

The worried parents spoke out last week after they learned that the Boone County Board of Education had allowed the 14-year-old to return to school despite having been charged with second-degree terroristic threats.

“Whatever help he has gotten, he is still a threat,” worried parent Deanne Corbin said at a school board meeting in Boone County, which is just across the Ohio River from Cincinnati, according to NBC affiliate WLWT.

The child needs an education yes but what about the safety of their classmates? I know I would not want a student like this in a school attended by my own children or grandchildren.

Because he was charged as a juvenile, terroristic threats are lessee?
That makes zero. It's still a crime, it's still a threat, and 14 years, not 14 months old.
There reason for bringing him back so soon is premature, or there has been some breakthrough by a psych doctor that we don't know about.
