Student Suspended For CS Map - TechAmok
Student Suspended For CS Map - [crime-law] 06:14 PM EDT - May,02 2007 - post a comment The
case involving the student that was suspended after making a Counter-Strike map
resembling his school is still dragging on. A special meeting of the school
board was delayed after four board members refused to attend:
Simpson said that on April 17, the day after the Virginia Tech massacre that left 33 dead, Clements High School officials learned a student had been playing Counterstrike, an Internet-based shooting game. The locale of the shootings depicted on this student's game were the hallways of Clements High School.
School district police investigated the report and questioned the student at school and then visited his home. The student's parents gave police permission to search the 12th-grader's room and computer. Simpson said police determined no criminal charges were warranted but that disciplinary action was.
Simpson said because of the violent nature of the game and because the actions had taken place in a computer-generated rendition of the high school, official consider the matter to be very serious. "This was nothing to kid around about," she said.
Simpson said the student was transferred to an alternative school for the remainder of the school term. The teen's parents appealed the decision. The school district has a four-step appeal process at the end of which a student can make a final appeal directly to the board of trustees.
