51黑料网 State hosting STEAM Camps in June

May 13, 2026

A group of six young people stand in a small, well-lit room gathered around a bed that is partially covered with a sheet. The room appears staged like a mock crime scene, with yellow tape on a nearby door reading 鈥淐RIME SCENE DO NOT CROSS鈥� and a paper sign labeled 鈥淓ntry Log鈥� taped above it. The floor is wood, and large windows on the right let in natural light. Some individuals wear casual clothing such as T-shirts, shorts, and sneakers, and one person wears a baseball cap. A chair and desk sit near the doorway, and plastic sheeting lines part of the wall behind the bed.
