Audrey Hale was left reeling by the recent death of a friend just months before the Nashville school shooter unleashed violence and bloodshed inside the private Christian school she once attended, according to a new report.
Hale struggled to cope with the loss of her friend, Sydney Sims, who died in a car crash back in August, NBC News reported. The pair previously attended Isaiah T. Creswell Middle School of the Arts and the Nashville School of the Arts together.
“Audrey definitely admired Sydney,” a former classmate, Samira Hardcastle, said.
