Laffyš³ āThe #Virginia teacher who was shot by a 6-year-old student repeatedly asked administrators for help with the boy but officials downplayed educatorsā warnings about his behavior, including dismissing his threat to light a teacher on fire and watch her die, according to messages from teachers obtained by The Washington Post.ā #shooting #news

OMG. This story only gets worse as we learn more. This teacher will not only live with the trauma of being shot, but also with the trauma of asking for help and being denied it. She and the 6yo (and the whole school community!) have now suffered even more harm because she was not believed.
When people say they are not safe - believe them.
@RuthZ And I do. Believe them I mean.
