áGâ þárotherhood of Gíds and âetardsþ present "Student Linked To Disks Showing Explosive Devices" By Tony Borelli Opinions by Jungle Jimmy A high school junior was indentified yesterday as the source of computer disks, sold to numerous students, that instruct users how to make explosive devices or how to break into a bank cash machine. The junior, who has been suspended from school fro three days, copied disks containing the "Jolly Roger Cookbook" from a computer Bulletin Board and gave one or two freshman about two weeks ago, vice pricipal DiColo said. The freshman then sold copies of the disks for $5 to $20 to at least five other students, DiColo said, though he suspects it was more. He said most buyers purchased the disks out of curiosity but that the incident shows parnts must watch their children's activities. A tip from a parent Oct. 4 led to the exposure of the disk sales, he said. One buyer's parent told him they were curios why their son was using the computer but never pressed the issue, DiColo said. Although possession and sale books describing criminal technology is not a crime, DiColo said the students were punished under a "Catch-All" provisionin the school's regulationsthat bars "inappropiate behavior." "This was inappropiate, dangerous material,"Dicolo said. He said the descisions about suspensions were also based on the students apparent intentions. "The kids that were buying it, I think they did it more out of curiosity," DiColo said. "But the kids who were selling it, I have to believe they knew they were doing something wrong." DiColo said the junior apparently did not kow that the freshman planned to sell the disk and "Just liked to play around with computers" Though none of the stunts described on the disk have been reprted at the school, principal Joan Tucker said no one know"what it would have led to if undiscovered." Dicolo said that two or three years ago at onother morris county school, which he would not name, he seized a book called the "Terrorist Handbook" and found that students had already begun trying to pick locks and cheat vending machines. How can these kids get suspended for this. They can not show one thing that is illegal baout it. The stupid pirnciple even said that it was legal. The only thing that they ahd to worry about getting in trouble about was if anything that they d/l and sold was copyrighted. But they didn't even check. It is not illegal to sell things that don't have copyrights, so why shouuld they be suspended. This just shows us how dush bags in this world can get around the laws. "It was inappropiate and Dangerous Material" ya well so is the shit that you learn in chemistry but that is in school. It is Dangerous material but they didn't even find the kids trying to do anything with this material except for sell it and make some money. The thing that this dumb vice principal does not also realize, by having this artical in the paper more kids are going to start to do this stuff. They are going to think that it is a great idea. Try to do this in your school. If you do it just watch who you sell it to. You can't get in that much trouble. Oh you might be suspended for a few days but that is no biggy. So if you want to make some big bucks go and try this.
