A Maryland middle school teacher was recently placed on leave after local police informed his school that he was the author of a novel where a school massacre was depicted. Patrick McLaw, a teacher at Mace's Lane Middle School allegedly wrote two books under the pen name, "Dr. K.S. Voltaer."

He is currently being held in police custody without any formal charges filed against him for what was contained in one of those books.

The book in question, titled The Insurrectionist, includes a school massacre that is described as the biggest in history.

The synopsis for the book reads, "On 18 March 2902, a massacre transpired on the campus of Ocean Park High School, claiming the lives of nine hundred forty-seven individuals - the largest school massacre in the nation's history. And the entire country now begins to ask two daunting questions: How? and Why? After the federal government becomes involved, and after examining the bouquet of black roses that lies in front of the school's sign, it becomes evident that the hysteria is far from over."

How police discovered that McLaw was the author of these books is still unknown.

"The information we received caused us to return to Dorchester County and immediately take the following steps," Dorchester Sheriff James Phillips told WBOC.

"While on administrative leave, he is not allowed to come onto school property or participate in school events. Mr. McLaw's teaching duties have been assigned to qualified personnel to insure the smooth transition of students into the fall semester," the Dorchester County superintendent of schools said in a statement.

"A K-9 sweep was conducted at the Mace's Lane School looking for explosive devices and other weapons. A secondary search was performed by police and school officials looking for suspicious packages or other items. Both of these searches were negative," Phillips said.

When McLaw was put on leave, he was also taken to a mental facility by police, and the entire school and the teacher's home was searched for guns and bombs. Both searches came up empty, but he is still being held against his will and the police have refused to disclose his location.

By these insane standards of fictional violence resulting in extraordinary rendition, most of Hollywood should be locked in a cage as well. This is by far one of the most ominous indicators of 1984 becoming an actual reality.
