Star Pupil?
From the New York Daily News:
A sophomore at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology was surrounded by troopers carrying submachine guns and arrested after showing up at Boston's Logan Airport wearing a phony bomb, made partly from Play-Doh, strapped to her chest. [snip] Star Simpson, a nineteen-year-old from Hawaii, cobbled together a computer circuit board, wires, and the Play-Doh into a contraption that she wore in plain view over a black hooded sweatshirt, [State Police Maj. Scott] Pare said.
Play-Doh? I have visited a far-out gadget lab on the MIT campus. I don't recall seeing any of that, but it's been a few years back.
Like the article says, this young lady ought to be really glad she isn't full of bulletholes.
