The six-year-old student who shot his teacher in the US earlier this year, boasted about the incident saying “I shot [her] dead”, unsealed court documents show.
While being restrained after the shooting at a Virginia school, the boy is said to have admitted “I did it”, adding “I got my mom’s gun last night”.
His teacher, Abigail “Abby” Zwerner - who survived - filed a $40m (£31.4m) lawsuit earlier this year.
The boy has not been charged.
The boy’s mother, however, Deja Taylor, has been charged with felony child neglect and misdemeanour recklessly leaving a loaded firearm as to endanger a child.
In Ms Zwerner’s lawsuit, filed in April, she accuses school officials of gross negligence for ignoring warning signs and argues the defendants knew the child "had a history of random violence
The documents also mention another incident with the same student while he was in kindergarten. A retired teacher told police he started “choking her to the point she could not breathe”.
I saw Rittenhouse crying when he was in court like a little bitch.
Then 3 weeks later saw him in an advertisement for some shitty video game where he cracked tongue in cheek jokes about the whole shooting thing.
He lacks what most Republicans lack; a backbone, empathy,moral righteousness, AND the self awareness about any of those shortcomings.
Unfortunately the courts wouldn’t let them show jurors the video like a week or two before the shooting where he physically attacked a preteen girl, and when a couple Black teens yelled at him to stop he curled I to the fetal position and bawled his eyes out that he was being attacked…
They didn’t even touch him. Just psychopath crocodile tears.
Or the video he filmed between that and the shooting where he sat outside a CVS and fantasized about if paying customers were looting so he could kill them.
He went out there with a gun so he could feel like a big strong man and kill someone.
Those videos would have helped establish his frame of mind when the shootings took place.
