Claim in court "In court, the public defender said Alston Jr. has a solid family support system." Solidly anti-social it would seem from their actions and antics.

What's the middle initial for searching?

His “friend” should also be arrested and charged

The father may have a record in DC in addition to MD.

I wonder if the gun was concealed and somehow fell when he moved. I don’t think it was out in plain sight the entire time.

There are over 150,000 students in mcps. The new building moratorium was lifted recently and that number will continue to grow. But the system has no measures to weed out violent students.

I was shocked at the tragedy of errors that happened at Magruder. One thing after another failed starting with getting a violent 17 year old out before anything happened to students going back to class without a word to the time it took for any police to arrive to the principals miscommunication/lies about student safety to the lack of arrests for the student who helped him build the gun the failure of the first officer to recognize a shooter was running around inside of the school, 2 hours to find him and keeping the students all in class past the superintendent that arrived late.

I didn't send my kids to private school and they are almost aged out of mcps now. But unless there is a drastic change in the way things are handled here I would definitely pay for grandchildren to go to private if they are raised here.

Why was 911 not called immediately after discovering the poor victim. A call was made 4 mins later…That was the first flaw.,

All that needed to happen was a mass alert to staff "where is alston?"

One of the articles said that was how he was found -- texts were sent to the teachers of his picture with a question about whether he was in their classroom. I'd imagine the teacher who got the text and thought "Oh, crap, that was one of the kids I pulled in out of the hallway when the lockdown was called" was pretty shaken.

I'm also wondering why the kids who saw him throw the gun under a chair didn't say something but maybe they were too scared to have Alston see them alert the teacher. That is, I think, different than not calling for help when there's a kid bleeding out on the floor. Or maybe they really didn't see if he was sneaky enough about sliding it under someone else's stuff.

There are a lot of unanswered questions here, including why it took 2 hours to find him.

The gun was visible, there was a photo at the press conference that was posted earlier in this thread.

The delay in getting the victim to a trauma center is another unanswered question.

Why, given repeated recent threats at that very school, was the response so poor on so many levels? Talking @ the adults, not the kids.

Alston Jr. sure seems to have had a lot of power over the actions of others, including the teacher in the room he wandered into for lockdown, not his class. Why might that be? Was it a regular teacher or a sub not familiar with the students? Were some kind of prison gang dynamics operating?

Fear can be a powerful motivator.

This could have been so much worse with mass casualties.

The victim could have gotten to the hospital much sooner, would that have changed the outcome? No siren vs. medivac for example.

Why in a school that had repeated threats as recently as December was the response so inept?

I was thinking about that . Maybe a numbered code for each student ?

They do. Someone earlier said his photo was sent to all the teachers asking if he was in their room.

I could not bring myself to follow this story because it was so triggering for me. Can anyone attempt a recap of what’s happened since the day of the shooting?
