VOLUSIA COUNTY, FL - Authorities have arrested a pre-teen boy after he allegedly bragged about his massive cache of weapons and plans to execute a "kill list" at two different schools.
According to reports, the Volusia County Sheriff's Office (VCSO) seized a huge pile of airsoft guns, knives, and swords after 11-year-old Carlo "Kingston" Dorelli showed a video of his armory to classmates and threatened violence. In a Facebook post, Sheriff Mike Chitwood shared a photo of the weapons and a video of officers leading the boy into the jail with handcuffs and leg irons on. Chitwood said, "He had written a list of names and targets. He says it was all a joke."
Chitwood and his office are not treating it like a joke. In fact, they have charged Dorelli with a felony charge for a written threat of a mass shooting. In the post, they also put up a photo of the kid's mugshot. The photo of the arsenal of weapons had them displayed out like officers do after a large drug bust.
The dramatic display came days after Chitwood vowed to "perp-walk" kids who make prank threats amid a flood of wild tips that came in the wake of the deadly school shooting at Apalachee High School in Georgia that left four dead. In a press conference, Chitwood said, "Since parents, you don't want to raise your kids, I'm gonna start raising them. Every time we make an arrest, your kid's photo is going to be put out there and if I can do it, I'm gonna perp-walk your kid so that everybody can see what your kid's up to ... We're gonna come and get you. We're going to put you out for public embarrassment."
Authorities said that the 11-year-old was a student at Creekside Middle School and that he allegedly threatened to commit a school shooting. The boy is accused of showing off "several weapons" during a video chat with friends and threatening to commit the shooting at Creekside or Silver Sands Middle School. Detectives were alerted through Fortify Florida, which allows people to make anonymous reports of suspicious activity to law enforcement and school officials.
Chitwood said this after Florida authorities had received 54 phony tips of impending school shootings in one single night. Chitwood said this is no laughing matter. He said, "Go talk to the families who have lost a loved one in a school shooting. These little knuckleheads think its funny. Go talk to those parents and see how funny this is. It's not."
In response to the over 50 phony tips, Chitwood said that law enforcement have been running around the clock to investigate these tips, which are all turning out to be false. He said that the situation is "absolutely out of control" and that it is costing investigators thousands of dollars. He added, "We're gonna have a post out. I'm gonna show you every kid that's been arrested and where they go to school and from there on out, we're going to publicly shame them and their parents. So parents, do your job. Don't let Sheriff Chitwood raise our kids. This is absolutely ridiculous."
Volusia County Schools said that "safety is the number one priority" and that every possible threat is thoroughly investigated. The statement read, "Any students or individuals found responsible for making threats or spreading false information will face serious consequences. This includes disciplinary actions at the school level, such as suspension or expulsion, as well as potential legal action, including arrest. We need the continued support of our parents and community members to reinforce the seriousness of these offenses to your children."
Florida isn't the only state getting peppered with fake threats to shoot up schools. On Friday, September 13th, police in Foley, Alabama, arrested two teens for "making a terrorist threat" on social media, just days after a school in that town was placed on lockdown when a teacher overheard a student talking about having a weapon.
On that same day, WYFI Indianapolis reported that a 12-year-old and a 15-year-old were arrested in Indianapolis in two different cases of threats against their school district. Two 12-year-olds were arrested in Texas where police have booked at least 10 young kids for threats of school violence in this school year alone.
Sheriff Chitwood said he has had enough, adding, "For the little (expletive) out there who think this is funny, ha ha ha, you want to get on social media: You ain't that smart ... You're going to get caught."
