The District Attorney office did not respond, per Savannah Guthrie. The family made a statement, they were please the child was not charged and hoped for a recovery, so something like that.

Nope, don't think we will see charges from DA.

WOW !!!

Newport Newport Police Dept FB is hosting the weekly chat with COP today.

The COP will be on at noon and six. First time in months.

Come join me it you can or let me know what questions you would like.

I will be asking about the investigation.

Moo
 
Per COP FB...para phrase

Said everything turned over to the DA. It takes awhile to review. We will hear if anyone is charged or not. The DA is aware of the law. [hum]

Someone ask about, bullying. Responded his officers do paperwork in the parking lot, encouraged to report to school or LE if at home.

A substitute teacher, concerns about safety. Again, officers do ride bys at all schools.

Ask would parents be charged? COP stated, he had interviewed many multiple times, and turned over all evidence over to DA. It takes time, and they will review and make decision. He has great relationship with DS office.

Lots of stuff about community events COP participates in. He's a great guy in my opinion.

The attorney said she was watching the DA's office.

I assumed the interview was very recent and the 2 week time frame would be from airing? Do you think that's not the case??

ETA: I don't remember hearing AZ nor her attorney saying they were pleased the child was not charged... I'm rewatching as it's possible I missed that. Maybe you can direct me??

It was yesterday. She was on assignment yesterday from the show.

Also, want to mention NNPC said, he had not seen but the dept recorded and he would be watching. He knew about the interview, when he called her yesterday to see how she was doing.

So very recent, good!

And, did you find where they said they were pleased about the child not being charged? I watched twice (at the link below) but still didn't hear it. (Is there a part that's missing?)

It was in the live interview. Twitter only has clips. They flashed a statement on the screen, in the first interview.

I don't know if Today will post the entire interview.transaction. It was two part, second was in the third hour and they had an open discussion.

That's the same link that was in my post.

The only statement I saw flashed on the screen was from the attorney of the child's mother.

Totally different than coming from AZ or anyone in her camp!

It wasn't a statement attributed to AZ and family. Just the Today's show comments, with the flashing of the 'statement' made by attorney Ellenson. A little mega announcement if you will....from the MSM. Subtle tones of...' the family has not been charged'.....(yet). MOO

Yes, it's the attorney statement from the family. Sorry, I wasnt clear. I thought it was a statement from the attorney from the child's family
 
Since we all know the child had direct access to mom's gun (like in virtually every other case ever, of a kid getting ahold of the parent's gun and then the parent being criminally charged), I'm guessing the real reason for no charges, is some sort of social/political issue, and not any sort of lack of evidence a crime took place.

But I have to confess, I'm even more surprised the identity of the parents hasn't already been leaked.

A brave young woman and much courage and love she shows. Has set an example for us all, imo.

My favorite part about that article was the phrase " and to hold accountable those who failed to prevent this tragedy".
There are many of those, IMO.

These lawyers for AZ are thankfully lining up and surrounding AZ like lions protecting a cub. And, they will take no prisoners.
Game On !!
 
Hope it is ok to put this here but I could not find a thread and this is another student shooting 2 teachers. He was required to be patted down daily.

Student who was patted down each day allegedly shoots 2 staffers at Denver high school

A student who was under a "certain agreement to be patted down each day" at school allegedly shot and wounded two school administrators at East High School in Denver, authorities said. The suspect, Austin Lyle, 17, fled the school on Wednesday morning after the shooting, Denver police said.
