News Center 7 reported last month that Boom Swallen went to his father about a plan to shoot up Mariemont High School.

A 14-year-old classmate had told Boom that he had a kill list, access to a gun, and was going to pull the trigger at school.

Boom’s father said his son came forward despite being threatened.

Ohio Congressman Greg Landsman invited Boom to attend as his guest.

The 14-year-old has been charged with conspiracy to commit aggravated murder.
