What does the Patriot Act have to do with this guy’s arrest?

The kid is accused of making a bomb threat. The mom claims that he has been detained for over two months without formal charges being made against him, because he is being considered an enemy combatant under the patriod act.

The Federal judge issued a gag order because of the kid's age, so we only have the Mom's side.

Two months? That's nothing. Cavalry Arms had most of their inventory seized over a YEAR ago and haven't heard word one about what they are being charged with...

Sounds fishy.

I’m well aware of the mother’s claims. I’d like to know which provision of the Patriot Act she thinks her son is being detained under. If Alex Jones is hyping this, her credibility is pretty much close to zero. I guess I missed it in the article, so how about a link to the specific section of the Act involved here?

Well, there's a big red flag as to the trustworthiness of the "facts" of this case.
