A woman who walked into Logan International Airport allegedly wearing a fake bomb strapped to chest was arrested at gunpoint Friday, officials said.
Star Simpson, 19, had a computer circuit board, wiring and a putty that later turned out to be Play-Doh in plain view over a black hooded sweatshirt she was wearing, said State Police Maj. Scott Pare, the commanding officer at the airport.
After a Massachusetts Port Authority official notified State Police about 8 a.m., troopers tracked Simpson down outside Terminal C, where they arrested her and later determined the device was a fake.

After a Massachusetts Port Authority official notified State Police about 8 a.m., troopers tracked Simpson down outside Terminal C, Why didn't the Port Authority official detain her before she needed to be "tracked down" by a cop?

I hope she gets to dream up more of her so-called “crazy ideas” for the next 20 in a Federal gray rock resort.

Failed suicide by cop or political statement?
She still needs 20+ years of hard labor to remind her how lucky she was that the cops showed more restraint than she deserved.

Yeah, I think you summed it up. The twit is lucky somebody didn’t take her seriously enough to shoot her on the spot.

She’s lucky someone didn’t shoot her first, before she could blow herself up.
She’s certainly too stupid to be in college.
