I don't think it applies to this school but when this was happening at the High Schools in Wicomico County the students knew who was doing it.

Has a bomb ever been found or exploded when someone calls in a bomb threat???
Just wondering, I have never heard of a terrorist giving a warning, seem like it defeats the purpose.
