A former assistant principal at a Virginia elementary school is facing charges of felony child neglect following a tragic incident where a 6-year-old student brought a gun to school and shot his teacher. The grand jury report released detailed the lack of response and missed opportunities that could have prevented the shooting.
The report highlighted that the child was not searched, removed from class, or reported to the police despite multiple warnings about the gun. The former assistant principal, Ebony Parker, was charged with eight counts of felony child neglect, one for each bullet that endangered the students in the classroom.
