SPOKANE -- Spokane Valley Police arrested an 18-year-old high school student Tuesday for threatening to stab a girl and her boyfriend.
East Valley High School student Nicholas Brinton, 18, was booked into the Spokane County Jail for Felony Harassment Threat to Kill.
Officers say over the weekend, Brinton attended a party also attended by the 15-year-old girl and her boyfriend. Marijuana belonging to the girl's boyfriend went missing, and he asked her to confront Brinton at school about the matter.
Officers say Brinton showed the girl a knife, telling her he would stab her, and told another student he would also stab her boyfriend.
Brinton was arrested at the Skills Center Tuesday and the knife, belonging to another East Valley High School student, was confiscated.

Where are the parents anyway??? A fifteen year old girl at a party discussing pot?? It sounds like the parents have lost control over these kids. All values start at home---no wonder there are so many kids in jail or juvenile custody.

I think we should go back to being able to punnish and spank our kids. The problem is that kids these days do not fear their parents because the parents fear the government when it comes to punnishing them. And what in the heck is a 15 year old girl doing out at a party when drugs are?!?!?! WATP????
