She's lying, I heard the recording of that girl's mother mentioning the gun, bullet didn't come from his gun anyway

I never saw him have a gun the claim in his front pocket but all I saw was a water bottle in his front pocket why won’t anyone straight up answer yes or no if he did have one I also saw where one officer said they saw it in his hand and another said it fell to the ground what’s the truth in this!!

911 call & interview prior to cops going to school said this kid has a gun. Cops knew he possibly had a gun. Cops could have handled differently. Caveman style is all they know. One of their own got shot due to their handling this situation this way. Turned out bad for all involved.
