An 18 year old high school kid has been arrested for writing a zombie story set at a school.  If we had this kind of mentality over here in the 80s I'd probably still be inside for some of the stuff I wrote at that age.

And a triple-edged legal complication: when he turned 18 he bacame an adult, which lumbers him with both the full insane weight of US law, and all the supposed protections of the constitution.

And the story reports that it was his grandparents who turned the story in to the police. There's something odd happening there, I think.
