Lawyer: Warnings boy had gun ignored before he shot teacher

“The administrator downplayed the report from the teacher and the possibility of a gun, saying — and I quote — ‘Well, he has little pockets,’ " Toscano said. Shortly after 1 p.m., another teacher told an administrator that a different student who was “crying and fearful” said the boy showed him the gun during recess and threatened to shoot him if he told anyone. When another employee who had heard the boy might have a gun asked an administrator to search the boy, he was turned down, Toscano said. Parker's departure had been expected since a school board agenda was posted Tuesday showing that the panel was set to vote on his separation package. Police have said that school officials did not tell them about that tip before the shooting, which happened hours later.

Lawyer: Admins were warned 3 times the day boy shot teacher

“On that day, over the course of a few hours, three different times — three times — school administration was warned by concerned teachers and employees that the boy had a gun on him at the school and was threatening people. She said that around 12:30 p.m., one teacher told administrators that she had taken it upon herself to search the boy’s bookbag but warned that she thought he had the gun in his pocket. Toscano said that after 1 p.m., another boy told his teacher that the student had shown him the gun and threatened to shoot him, and that the teacher reported that to administrators. Another employee later asked for permission to search the boy after hearing about the gun but “was told to wait the situation out because the school day was almost over,” Toscano said. Zwerner had also told school administrators at around 11:15 a.m. that day that the boy had threatened to beat up another child.

Justice Dept. sues Google over digital advertising dominance

WASHINGTON — (AP) — The Justice Department and several states sued Google on Tuesday, alleging that its dominance in digital advertising harms competition. The DOJ's suit accuses Google of unlawfully monopolizing the way ads are served online by excluding competitors. This is the latest legal action taken against Google by either the Justice Department or local state governments. In October 2020, for instance, the Trump administration and eleven state attorneys general sued Google for violating antitrust laws, alleging anticompetitive practices in the search and search advertising markets. The lawsuit in essence aligns the Biden administration and new states with the 35 states and District of Colombia that sued Google in December 2020 over the exact same issues.

Lawyer: 6-year-old who shot teacher has 'acute disability'

NORFOLK, Va. — (AP) — The family of a 6-year-old boy who shot and wounded his teacher in Virginia said Thursday that the child suffered from "an acute disability" and that one of his parents usually accompanied him in class but did not the week the shooting occurred. Also on Thursday, the hospital that had been treating the teacher said that she was released earlier this week and is continuing outpatient care. An accommodation for students with behavioral disabilities could mean seating them close to the teacher.

Jan. 6 defendant convicted on separate weapons charges

ALEXANDRIA, Va. — (AP) — A jury has convicted a Navy reservist from Virginia accused of storming the Capitol on Jan. 6 on separate charges that he illegally possessed silencers disguised to look like innocuous cleaning supplies. The case against Speed in Virginia hinged on three devices he bought in March 2021 that the government argued were unregistered silencers. Speed contended the devices are “solvent traps” to collect excess liquid that spills out when a gun is cleaned. The devices bought by Speed are made of titanium and contain baffles that would be found on silencers. Speed's lawyers, though, contended that the devices were indeed solvent traps, not silencers.

Lawyer: Gun used by child who shot teacher was 'secured'

“Our family has always been committed to responsible gun ownership and keeping firearms out of the reach of children,” the statement said. The shooting occurred Jan. 6 as teacher Abigail Zwerner taught her first grade class at Richneck Elementary in Newport News. The 25-year-old teacher hustled her students out of the classroom before being rushed to the hospital.
