Madison County Schools reported on Facebook:
Yesterday afternoon a student at Germantown High School reported a rumor of a potential threat of violence against others in the school community. Administrators immediately initiated an investigation in conjunction with local law enforcement. After a full investigation, it has been determined that the rumors were not credible. School is underway as usual today. The safety of our students is our top priority in Madison County Schools, and we take every report of potential threats very seriously. We will always investigate any and all reports to the fullest extent to ensure the safety of our students and school community.
What happened was a knucklehead told a friend last night that he was going to shoot up the school. The friend reported the threat. Law enforcement officers and the bomb squad showed up at Germantown High School this morning and cleared the school. The students were never in any danger. Said knucklehead was arrested but for smoking weed. He was smoking dope at his house when the police showed up to interview him. Truly a knucklehead.

What the school's announcement left out was this: "We appreciate and are thankful for the student coming forward to report this threat of planned violence. We respect all students' confidentiality and encourage all of our students and other customers/partners to remain alert and to report any comments or activities related to violence or the breaking of school rules."
As to the comment "...proved to not be credible", whose to say? The report itself was indeed credible as a student reported what he was told, first-hand. THAT is credible, regardless of the outcome.
I hope the policy makers and memo-writers at this school will change their take on this and in the future will celebrate those kids who are brave enough to come forward. Their memo is entirely self-serving in all respects.
11:29 AM - You are spot on. Saying that it wasn't "credible" translates to, "See, nothing happened on my watch."
"Credible Threat" means that there is probable cause that the person making the threat had the ability and intent to carry out the threat. In this case, it was a valid threat in that the threat was actually made and reported to the authorities. It seems that the authorities evaluated the threat and determined that while valid, it was not credible.
High School kid smoking weed in the home when the cops arrived? Where are the parents?
In my best Cheech and Chong voice: Wow, man!
Thug !!!! What a shame. Goes to show that the parents have truly failed this young man and the culture of his people is to blame. A high school student not in school, sitting home, smoking dope, threatening to shoot up a school. Shows a lack of discipline, respect and morals!!!!
This is truly a bad reflection on the Gluckstadt community. The Student should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and his single mother should be striped of her SNAP and WIC benefits!!!!!
dont taze me bra...
@ 1:48, there are no single mothers in Gluckstadt. And no one there receives SNAP or WIC. All of these perfect mothers (and fathers) were virgins until their wedding nights. I am sure this was a foster situation from another city and the poor child just needs more churching.
That's what they get when they started building starter homes in and around the schools. Pot head kids making dumb ass decisions. North Madison/Gluckstadt/South Canton has some neighborhoods that I would call a white ghetto. They may not can afford to cut the grass, but the got that Madison zip code.
@1:48 PM, how do you know that she is a "single mom?" From other news sources?
Regardless, he is likely a "latch-key kid" who is left home unsupervised. In this case parent/s went to work and he somehow stayed home. Tummy-ache? Just plain truant?
He is almost certainly looking for attention.
He's not a student there. He is a drop out!
Threats were made to other schools in Madison as well.
In other news did anyone read this story? WTF!
We finally got Mr. Spicoli.
That memo may be an example of why the new Superintendent was run out of Tennessee. What a self-serving bit of hogshit.
Just another loser Gluckite
But all those Lib-nut-tarians want to legalize weed. They are the enlightened ones. LOL
7:18pm....I am what one would consider to be hyper-conservative, and I am all for legalization. You must be a sanctimonious judgmental Baptist that loves to stick their nose in others' business, while sinning up a storm and not even realizing it. I believe in freedom and personal responsibility above all else. It's coming and there is not a damn thing you can do about it.
And another thing 7:18pm....you would be shocked to know who all around you smokes. I know doctors and builders of successful businesses and lawyers and pillars of the community who smoke daily. Not all of those vape pens you see contain nicotine. And it is far less destructive than alcohol....or as you know it....that thing you all do but keep under wraps like you don't....hypocrite.
@1:48, OMG, you just made me realize that I was a thug. When I was in high school, my friends and I drank beer and smoked marijuana. My parents had no idea. Oh, yeah, I was a thug of two college educated parents who had nice jobs and a pretty decent house. Now I'm a college educated thug who has a damn good job who can afford to buy better alcohol. I quit smoking marijuana years ago because of those pesky random drug tests. You know, thugs will be thugs.
10:22 - Your conclusion that 'it's far less destructive than alcohol' is an opinion. And one that could be argued til the cows come home and then til daylight the next day.
For those whose lives have been negatively impacted by either alcohol or weed, ask them which is worse - Being hit by a train or an 18 wheeler. So, please....just stop with your nonsensical conclusions that can neither be proved nor disproved.
Beautiful Gluckstadt is the The Garden of Eden. This is obviously the work of a Forest Hill dropout!! Probably played in the band.
The sad part is that the District Attorney will not let anything other that a misdemeanor charge be filed so hows that getting his attention. What if he follows up. There is no law to protect anyone
JJ release his name and photo so everyone knows who this piece of crap is
6:38am is indeed a moron who know absolutely nothing about substances and the way they affect the human body and the actions and feelings and degrees of intoxication different substances bring about. If you think pot is as dangerous as alcohol, you truly are a dolt.
This kid is very well know to law enforcement. He is the definition of thug and the definition of big trouble. He is a drop-out also. He has a record and it ain't good. He was born September of 2000. I will state his name if Kingfish okays it, and provide the mugshot link. My son knew him a little back around 8th grade, and quickly learned to stay clear as things went downhill.
Wonder if he got his hide tanned.
Don't punish the children where is the Jackson City council to help set this kid free
We can thank the pot dealers in Jackson for his downfall.
Nope don’t blame Jackson, blame the dam parents. He lives at home and has been arrested twice in a month for dope. I know what I would of done if he was mine but most of the parents nowadays especially in Madison are kinder gentler. Gve the kids a brand new car and a pocket full of money to go away
If this person is not a student (someone said he's not in school) and he's 18, why protect his identity?
Could this be another example of a "latch-key" kid, i.e. both parents work while chasing the almighty buck, leaving their kid/s home without supervision during the afternoon to get into mischief?
This kid is trouble. He has older brothers who are trouble. This is not a case of a rich, entitled kid smoking some dope and thinking he is above the law. This kid is an absolute criminal. He is the type who will carjack or kill someone. He is mean.
He is an adult, so give up his name and address, or are his parents connected?
