All the police has said so far is that they won't be charging him with the "hoax bomb" crap. http://www.theverge.com/2015/9/16/9338113/ahmed-mohamed-clock-no-c

  Why would they charge him with creating a hoax? The teachers that cried bomb threats should be penalized, not the student. Am I missing something here? It's starting to look like he is the victim of a conspiracy where the administration and local PD trumped up the charges, I wouldn't be surprised if the state attorney general would've loved to have sunk his teeth in too. This whole situation is as much about blatant racism and fear mongering as it is about the viciousness of state-backed prosecutorial adventurism.

    He hasn't been charged; police attended and arrested then pretty swiftly released him. Teachers & school deserve opprobrium; not sure the police do in this instance.

  A source I read earlier said that he also would not be charged with "intent to cause alarm". Although the clock did have an alarm function (it beeped in class and the teacher that reported him commented on it). You can't make this stuff up.
