I saw a teevee interview with the kid and honestly he seemed like the
super nerdy kid (like myself) who would disassemble stuff and
reassemble it to make it better or "more cool". He really did not
seem provocative or anything. He was super excited to show off his
"invention". Granted to us "expert" adults his invention seems like
just a repackaging but give the kid a break, he's 14 and has probably
just learned about electronics and such. That was my take on the
revere engineering article and the news interview.

Hmmm indeed.
When I saw that (maybe 2 seconds of viewing time) on the evening
news, I came away with two things. One, where's the alleged
explosive? and Two, that's not even a MacGiver'ed clock, it's
merely a commercial "clock" that's been partially disassembled.
My conclusion? The teacher and the police are idiots.
