I think I get it. The city was worried about a real possibility of shooting. So they searched his house and found nothing. They realized he wasn't a real threat. Just a jerk. But they also wanted to send a message, loud and clear, to society: if you make jokes like this, you will suffer the consequences. So they left him in jail. They set an illegally high bond. They manipulated this gullible boy into giving them a reason to move him to a worse jail, where they knew he would be raped. When it happened, they feigned surprise. Sure, there were good intentions. They wanted to discourage the kind of joking that puts people into a state of panic. But they went about it extremely unethically, immorally, and most likely illegally. I've gone to jail, I've been through the US court system, they're very manipulative and this is how they work. It's not right.
