"The Harvard student accused of emailing a bogus bomb threat to dodge a final exam has been released on a $100,000 bond and must stay away from the campus, a federal judge ordered Wednesday.
Eldo Kim, 20, can stay with a family member who lives in the area and is not allowed to leave Massachusetts, said Judge Judith G. Dein.
The shackled university sophomore was a somber figure in U.S. District Court in South Boston, wearing a gray T-shirt and Harvard sweatpants. Monday's stunt forced an evacuation of four buildings at the Cambridge campus.
Prosecutors say Kim sent hoax emails claiming bombs were planted around the school in order to get out of a test.
He faces up to five years in prison, three years supervised release and a $250,000 fine if convicted.

This kid has pretty much lost it all. He worked his butt off his whole life to get to where he is now and everything is all gone….
He has criminal charges and is definitely gonna be kicked out of school. I can't help but feel sorry for him. He should have just dropped the class if he knew he was gonna fail…. :(
