@cbsnews: Abby Zwerner, a former Virginia teacher who was shot by a 6-year-old student in her classroom in January 2023, testified Thursday that she thought she had died in the shooting. "I thought I was dying, I thought I had died," Zwerner said. "I thought I was either on my way to heaven or in heaven, but then it all got black, and so I then thought I wasn't going there, and then I, my next memory is I see two coworkers around me, and I process that I'm hurt, and they're putting pressure on where I'm hurt." Zwerner was testifying in her $40 million lawsuit filed against a former assistant principal who is accused of ignoring multiple warnings that the student had a gun. #teacher #student #crime #virginia

The idea was from someone else. You CANNOT convince me that a parent didn't plant the idea into that child.
Criminal Negligence. Lock the parents up for life and give her every single cent she is owed. Period.

                                    We had a prank call a few years back, on Halloween. Someone said that a Pre-K student had a gun. Our school was locked down so fast!! Every backpack was checked. I’m so thankful for our Admin. I can’t even fathom returning to any school building EVER again!!
