A middle-schooler in my dad's school district was arrested this last week for having a "death list." I guess the local news media jumped on it so hard that one station sent out their helicopter.
Personally, I think a lot of the ideas for this sort of thing comes from overexposure to a sensationalist media--as illustrated by Seattle media's response to the "death list." We really don't need to be exposing kids to these kinds of things--we're encouraging copycat behavior.
