Harvard Student Accused of Bomb Hoax Expected in Court

Extreme way to get out of a final

|

A Harvard University student prosecutors say made bomb threats to try to get out of a final exam is making an initial appearance in federal court.

The U.S. Attorney's office in Boston filed a criminal complaint Tuesday against Eldo Kim, alleging he sent hoax emails saying bombs were in four buildings on the Cambridge, Mass., campus. The emails came minutes before he was to take a final exam in one of the buildings.
