Strange Twist In Foiled Montco 'Plot-To-Kill'

A Montgomery County student, who was honored by President Bush for exposing a peer's Columbine-style attack plan, has admitted to taking part in a series of break-ins at the home of the teenage plotter.

The student and two other teens admitted to numerous break-ins at the Plymouth Township home of 46-year-old Michelle Cossey.

Cossey's 14-year-old son is currently in a juvenile treatment center after admitting to planning an attack at Plymouth Whitemarsh High School.

One of the three students accused in the break-ins was hailed a hero in October after he tipped off authorities to his friend's 'plot-to-kill.'

During a search of the Cosseys' Plymouth Township home, police confiscated dozens of weapons, including a 9mm rifle, various knives and air-powered guns along with books on how to construct bombs and videos of the 1999 Columbine attack.

The hero teen told police his friend tried to recruit him for the attack. In juvenile court Friday, the hero teen admitted to breaking into his friend's house.

Sources said the Cosseys' home was broken into numerous times between January and February with video games and money allegedly taken from inside the home.

The three teen suspects turned themselves into police on Thursday. All are expected to be sentenced at a later date.
