Lakeland, Florida - Some household products, a small plastic bottle, and a mistake at school. Kiera Wilmot's life will never be the same.

"There are people teasing me, calling me a terrorist," the tiny teen said during a news conference with her family and lawyer in Lakeland.

The 16-year-old says she brought the items to school to have her science teacher okay an experiment, but Kiera says her only mistake was when she let other kids talk her into actually trying the experiment and mixing substances.

About a third of them are finding new homes.
