A Rutherford High School student is behind bars tonight for allegedly plotting against some classmates. A school resource officer claims to have uncovered the plot inside the student’s notebooks.

A Rutherford student was arrested Wednesday on a charge of "written threats to kill or do bodily harm."

Authorities say, to the untrained eye, the student’s plot may have looked like nothing more than scribbling. But investigators say 14-year-old Dakota Gates was definitely planning to harm not only some of his classmates, but also some of the administrators at Rutherford.

School Resource Deputy Sgt. Myron Guilford uncovered the alleged plan, when he discovered a note gates had written Tuesday. At first glance it appeared to be meaningless hieroglyphics-type scribbles.

But on closer inspection, Guilford determined the scribblings were actually a detailed account of an attack Gates planned on classmates and school officials.

Guilford also claims to have found a list of students names Gates had targeted. During questioning Gates said the scribblings had no meaning.

Sgt. Guilford sent the note to the president of the Florida Gang Investigators Association who in turn sent it to the F-B-I. The F-B-I called Guilford Wednesday with a translation of the note, revealing a plot in meticulous detail.

Gates also allegedly wrote a "contract" and circulated it among the students stating if they signed his "contract" their lives would be spared when he began his killing spree.

Gates was booked into the Bay County Jail, then turned over to the Department of Juvenile Justice. He’s due in court Thursday for a bond hearing.
