“Schoolboy, 15, accused of Islamist extremism shared instructions on how to make ‘Mother of Satan’ bomb and posted video titled ‘must fight them or move ahead’ in chat group, court hears,” by Chay Quinn, MailOnline, March 21, 2022:

I doubt that a 15-year-old was working alone.

When I was 15 years old, I was most interested in improving my batting average in Babe Ruth League baseball – and impressing the cute blonde girl in the stands.
