What month will Sixteen-year-old Ashton Lundeby be release from juvenile facility in South Bend?

Background: Mom says Patriot Act stripped son of due process
Oxford, N.C. — Sixteen-year-old Ashton Lundeby's bedroom in his mother's Granville County home is nothing, if not patriotic. Images of American flags are everywhere - on the bed, on the floor, on the wall.

But according to the United States government, the tenth-grade home-schooler is being held on a criminal complaint that he made a bomb threat from his home on the night of Feb. 15.The family was at a church function that night, his mother, Annette Lundeby, said.

"Undoubtedly, they were given false information, or they would not have had 12 agents in my house with a widow and two children and three cats," Lundeby said.

Around 10 p.m. on March 5, Lundeby said, armed FBI agents along with three local law enforcement officers stormed her home looking for her son. They handcuffed him and presented her with a search warrant.

"I was terrified," Lundeby's mother said. "There were guns, and I don't allow guns around my children. I don't believe in guns."

Lundeby told the officers that someone had hacked into her son's IP address and was using it to make crank calls connected through the Internet, making it look like the calls had originated from her home when they did not.

Her argument was ignored, she said. Agents seized a computer, a cell phone, gaming console, routers, bank statements and school records, according to federal search warrants.

"There were no bomb-making materials, not even a blasting cap, not even a wire," Lundeby said.

Ashton now sits in a juvenile facility in South Bend, Ind. His mother has had little access to him since his arrest. She has gone to her state representatives as well as attorneys, seeking assistance, but, she said, there is nothing she can do.http://www.wral.com/news/local/story/5049867/

\\nAshton has a sound alibi and it is reported that bomb threats were made 9:00 central time to Purdue University. Well someone needs to go back to school because Purdue is in EASTERN time. Ashton was with many people in church during 9:00 EASTERN time. \\r

Well I have news for fingers_of_fury...\\r
\\nI didn\'t mention anything about the Patriot Act but since YOU did here goes,\\r
\\nAshton was formally charged on a repealed law: The Title 18 law that Ashton was \"formally\" charged under is a repealed law it isn\'t LEGIT according to lawyers with the ruleoflawradio.com \\r
\\nSo he is being held under what then?...smells like the Patriot Act to me. And to take a child out of state like they did? That is really illegal...check out your interstate commerce laws...do your friggen homework before you start linking to the \"unrelated the the Patriot Act\" card, are you a fed or the REAL \"Tyrone\"?
