And probably a good thing, too

Jake Wark, spokesman for Suffolk District Attorney Daniel F. Conley, yesterday said prosecutors will "follow the evidence and apply the law" in the case of Star Anna Simpson, who was charged after she walked up to an information booth wearing a piece of "art" authorities feared might be a bomb.

"Like it or not, we live in a world in which a person might target an airport," Wark said. "There's a reason why police patrol that area with canines and machine guns. This wasn't a cartoon character she was wearing."


Cartoon characters they tend to blow up, in Boston, like they did to the Cartoon Network promo signs - well, some of them, anyway. Simpson, the guess is, will get by with something less, possibly a little community servce - not too soon, says retired Superior Court Judge Robert A. Baron, who is possibly the only guy interested enough in this to talk about it.
