Tough Fight Against Cartoon Advertisers in Terror Scare

Prosecutors are attempting to cover for the fact that the city of Boston feel victim to over blown fears of terrorism.  They are now trying to save face by prosecuting the two men that placed the advertising boxes that according to attorneys look like toys all over Boston in several dozen locations.  The devices were placed several weeks before they were found and prompted a scare in Boston, when no other city in the country had much of an issue with them.

Now prosecutors will have to prove that the men that placed these devices intended to cause fear and not the more expected smirk as people saw a cartoon waving the finger back at them.

That's going to be a pretty tough case against two twenty somethings that were working for a multi national media conglomerate that owns CNN and many other TV stations.  Prosecutors will be better off settling and hoping that their scare tactics are forgotten.
