Phil said in email the classroom won’t be used for any purpose for the upcoming academic year. I noticed they had papered over the glass walls.

Has there been any explanation for the shooter’s motivation for this heinous act? Any comments from his father on this? Did nobody notice him running of the rails?

emf · May 30, 2019, 3:49pm

His grandfather said he was autistic, FWIW. I imagine we won’t learn more until trial.

Nugget · May 30, 2019, 3:56pm

If there is a trial. I would not be surprised if there is a plea bargain that avoids it.

There’s a great interview of Drew Pescaro on Spectrum’s Channel 14 News. Drew is wearing a Charlotte Basketball tee shirt in the interview.

Not only is Drew returning to the school in the Fall, his brother will be enrolling.

I like how local media has removed the shooter’s identity.

Shooter may have videotaped aftermath. Responding officer was unsure if he was victim at first.

EDIT: more details

Just saw that the bonfire shirts above made their donation…

Niner_National · June 8, 2019, 7:00pm

Which shirts were those?

I bought 2 of the 704 shop shirts, but I guess I missed those.

Nugget · June 9, 2019, 2:05pm

The Nuggets got two of the 704 shirts, and saw a lady in Matthews wearing one yesterday. I hope they raised a good bit of money.

tasheets · June 9, 2019, 2:07pm

We received our 4 yesterday. I love the green 704 sticker they added in.

Niner_National · June 9, 2019, 2:22pm

Damn i didnt get a sticker. Maybe it was just for people that ordered more than me.

Byrdmobthedk · June 9, 2019, 9:18pm

We ordered 2 from each place and both came in this week. Happy to see the donation and good looks on the sticker. Still had the package laying here and didn’t look inside it
