Teenager accused of text message bomb hoax
An Australian gap year student accused of triggering the bomb scare with a mobile phone text because she was running late for a plane to Dublin told a jury that her message was a “stupid joke”.
Angela Sceats, aged 19, of Sydney, Australia, sent a text telling her best friend and flatmate, Angela Forster, to “call the police and say there is a bomb on board” while she was on a train from London to Stansted Airport in November.
