I would look and see if it said something like this:
The zombie horde stumbled through the hallways. "Brains... BRAAAAINS!!"
Or instead something like this:
John the Zombie took out his .357 that he'd gotten from his father's closet and began shooting all the students in the face, starting with Stephen, that fucking bully...
If the kid WERE planning to shoot up the school, and found himself being questioned by police because of his vivid written descriptions of it, the first thing that would pop out of his mouth is, "Uh, yeah, that's just fiction, I was just making some stuff up."
It could be a gross misuse of the court system, or it could be that the kid's a liar. Until I get to read the stuff he wrote, I'm not going to declare one way or the other the pendulum's position in its arc.
