Oregon Teen Charged With Plotting High School Massacre by VOA News A judge in Oregon has set bail at $2 million for a teenager who allegedly threatened a massacre at his high school. Seventeen-year-old Grant Acord appeared in a courtroom via closed circuit television from a juvenile detention center. He said little and did not enter a plea. Acord is charged with attempted murder and possessing a destructive device. Prosecutors accuse him of hiding bombs in his bedroom along with detailed plans of his high school. They say he was plotting a massacre patterned after the 1999 massacre at Columbine High School in Colorado. Two students gunned down 12 students and teachers at Columbine before killing themselves. __________________________________________________________________ [1]http://www.voanews.com/content/oregon-teen-charged-with-plotting-hig h-school-massacre/1670250.html References 1. http://www.voanews.com/content/oregon-teen-charged-with-plotting-high-school-massacre/1670250.html
