Johnson Co. gamer investigated for threat By Jason Thomas Posted: July 14, 2009
A Johnson County man who told investigators that he was merely testing a theory could face federal charges after he told deputies he threatened to blow up a commercial airliner.
The 18-year-old, who lives in the 4000 block of Ridgemere Drive, Greenwood, told Johnson County deputies that he was playing a popular online role-playing game early Monday morning when he issued a threat that he "was going to board a plane at 7:30 to Chicago and that (he) was going to try and kill as many Americans as possible," according to an incident report from the sheriff's department.
A facilitator with an online gaming center alerted authorities after she noticed several messages from the man, who was playing "World of Warcraft," threatening to blow up an airliner.
The man, who originally told investigators that someone had hacked into his computer, admitted he jokingly made the threats, which did not name a specific airline, because he had heard that merely doing so would bring police to his house, "but I didn't really believe it," he said in a written statement.
A representative from Blizzard Entertainment, the online gaming site, would not disclose the exact content of the chat logs to investigators without a subpoena, but she said the logs seemed "very serious" and did not seem like jokes.
The man's computer was seized as evidence.
The Federal Bureau of Investigations, which took over the investigation, could file charges with the U.S. Attorney's Office, according to the affidavit.

looks like the jokes on him. If he doesn't have money for a good lawyer, he might be looking for 8/x10 concrete gaming center where the only game is who's the new boyfriend.
There are somethings you don't joke about & well...
