I know I'm responding SUPER late. but this day and age, don't you think it's okay to actually prepare our future for active threats (such as school 🔫)? it only makes sense to do so. I know, it's taboo and absolutely terrifying (mother of middle school, high school, and college junior) but God damnit its real. our babies need to know! if they're in a bathroom and hear something alarming (shots fired) they need to know what to do, just as they would if it was a fire alarm. I'm in a town of 800...

it's insane that these people don't think that they deserve to be in jail forever for doing this horrific crime. know that you're a piece of shit and take your punishment which is the rest of your life in prison or death. You raped a child and shot him to death. people that do that deserve to die the second thing it caught. In my opinion

I'm glad the case was resolved, and this episode gave 40 minutes of congratulations and honoring everyone involved, but the actual crime was not discussed. we know how wonderful everyone is........ but what was the crime? what was the investigation? results? court trial or plea? I'm sorry to say this was the longest kissing a** I've listened to by you without ANY details. Maybe you should listen to a little bit before it's posted. The only thing missing in this case..... is the case.
