Teen accused of bomb attack on San Mateo school competent for trial:

It’s been a while since we posted anything about Alex Youshock. He’s the then 17-year-old who attacked Hillsdale High School in San Mateo, California with pipe bombs, a sword, and a chainsaw that he carried in a guitar case. Luckily no one was injured in the attack and he was stopped by a teacher.

Just this past week Youshock was ruled competent to stand trial which is scheduled to start January 31st, 2011.

Youshock’s primary target was a chemistry teacher who gave him bad grades. Like I said previously just another loser who blames others for his own failures.

Youshock has been charged as an adult and is facing a possible life sentence after being charged with premeditated attempted murder.
