Texas mother claims son is in a vampire cult

The mother reports him to the authorities, saying the vampire cult planned to kill and bathe in the victim's blood. The Brownsville (Tex.) Herald has the story:

The 16-year-old boy provided a statement to school officials Thursday about an alleged drug purchase at Rivera High School and told them of his involvement with a group of local students who drink each other’s blood and were plotting to sacrifice a victim. In his statement, the Rivera High School junior said he “had to obey” the cult’s leader and that the group planned to kill a person and bathe in their blood. snip The boy’s mother, who asked not to be identified Tuesday, said her son told her that he and his girlfriend would cut themselves in the teachers’ parking lot of the school and taste each other’s blood. The boy’s mother said her son claims the group has members in other local high schools. Letters addressed to the boy and provided to The Herald by his mother, contain details of alleged acts of vampirism as well as logos and symbols from popular punk bands. “Sorry if my blood isn’t yummy,” one letter states. “I hope you don’t feel bad about cutting me. I liked it a lot. It doesn’t hurt.”

This must be an example of those blood red state values.
