Why did the mother text the kid after the shooting "don't do it"? Was she hoping authorities wouldn't notice the time and think she tried to stop him?
Probably meant suicide

So much of this is awful, but I agree the kid shouldn't have been able to stay in school at that point, although I'm sure it's not that simple.
Don't Principals or Assistant Principals have pretty wide latitude to send kids home?
That's always been my understanding, but I think most of the time it's a request that reasonable parents accept. I'm pretty sure in the end you can't "deny" a student of an education.
Do they not have ROs in MI? They can sometimes convince parents to take a student off the premises.

Apprehended. And still alive! Isn’t that something? They were making a break for the border. Giving your kid an assault rifle and him shooting up a school and then Leaving your kid sit in a cell and going on the run, I just can’t wait to see how they get outta this. And they probably will.

They probably didn’t resist arrest. Avoid getting shot by the police with this one weird trick!
Lol at you confusing a 9mm pistol with a rifle. Assault pistol!

A pretty weak defense after the complete abdication of that duty for 18 months in some parts of the country. The admin was worried about a vague threat of litigation at some point in the future? They're public officials, they have QI. They were too lazy to push the issue.
That said, its the smallest failure here, just happened to be the last possible offramp.

I going to ignore the "abdication" jab there.
That's why I'm curious about officers in the building. A cop could have pushed the issue as a legal matter (you're neglecting your kid by not getting him help) that would have gone beyond the school's recommendation that the kid needed to be hospitalized for a psych eval.
Nothing can explain why the kid wasn't kept in isolation with an adult at his hip if he wasn't leaving the building. How do you go from "I think you should leave and we strongly recommend getting help" to "okay, well I guess you can go back to class." Whoever made that call should re-sign and will probably face a civil suit from the 4 dead and the 7 wounded. Just awfulness everywhere I look with this one. A+ for the teacher that took the photo of his note though, really quick thinking.
