The six-year-old student who shot his teacher in the US earlier this year, boasted about the incident saying “I shot [her] dead”, unsealed court documents show.
While being restrained after the shooting at a Virginia school, the boy is said to have admitted “I did it”, adding “I got my mom’s gun last night”.
His teacher, Abigail “Abby” Zwerner - who survived - filed a $40m (£31.4m) lawsuit earlier this year.
The boy has not been charged.
The boy’s mother, however, Deja Taylor, has been charged with felony child neglect and misdemeanour recklessly leaving a loaded firearm as to endanger a child.
In Ms Zwerner’s lawsuit, filed in April, she accuses school officials of gross negligence for ignoring warning signs and argues the defendants knew the child "had a history of random violence
The documents also mention another incident with the same student while he was in kindergarten. A retired teacher told police he started “choking her to the point she could not breathe”.
Next Kyle Rittinghouse just watch.

He wasn’t legally allowed to be in possession of the gun…
Let alone running around a riot with it after curfew
You’re suggesting the six year old child is going to lawfully defend himself against 3 adult males, including a pedophile? I’m not understanding your comparison.
Let’s not pretend that the technical legality of Rittenhouse’s actions make him any less a piece of shit. And he certainly wasn’t trying to rid the world of a pedo, as he had no way of knowing that. So acting like it somehow makes things better is quite disingenuous.
He went looking to use his rifle, and got himself in deep enough to create a scenario where he could get away with doing so. Nothing more admirable than that.
You forgot to mention the part where he obtained the rifle through an admitted straw purchase and still shouldn’t have been in possession of it or out past curfew.
He was breaking multiple laws before anyone tried to disarm him.
No argument here, I just know folks who jump up to defend Rittenhouse don’t even slightly care about those details.
Remember, if you jaywalk it voids your right to self defense.
It boggles my mind how you can get away with a self-defense defense even when you entirely created the situation
Zimmerman is a great example to me… He brought the gun, he stalked an unarmed kid minding his own business, and he confronted him up close and personal. If Treyvon Martin had gotten the gun and shot Zimmerman instead, he’d have a way stronger self-defense case (in principle at least)
Like I could understand avoiding a murder charge, but shouldn’t it be manslaughter at least? At best according to the one side of the story we have, Zimmerman was negligent to the point someone died. If he didn’t bring the gun, it’s doubtful anyone would have died. If he left it to the police, no one would have died. If he kept his distance or tailed him in a car, no one would even have been at risk.
Our laws are seriously wonky in this country…
He ran away from the assailants each time and didn’t shoot the one guy until he pointed the pistol at him again. His actions show you’re completely full of shit. Those guys would be fine if they didn’t choose to attack an armed kid.
Do explain how Rittenhouse knew he was shooting a pedophile. Did he see the man’s criminal record before opening fire?
Dont worry there will be plenty of school shooting stories in the future for you to come in and praise guns.
As far as I know, he’s just a murderer, not a pedophile.
I think he is trying to conflate the 6 year old bragging about shooting people with Kyle Rittenhouse “bragging” about overcoming an attempted character assassination, criminal charges, and successfully defending himself from those who intended to cause death or great bodily harm.
I belive he thinks Kyle Rittenhouse “bragging” about shooting (lawful self-defense) people is the same as the 6 year old bragging about shooting (attempted murder) his teacher.
I saw Rittenhouse crying when he was in court like a little bitch.
Then 3 weeks later saw him in an advertisement for some shitty video game where he cracked tongue in cheek jokes about the whole shooting thing.
He lacks what most Republicans lack; a backbone, empathy,moral righteousness, AND the self awareness about any of those shortcomings.
Unfortunately the courts wouldn’t let them show jurors the video like a week or two before the shooting where he physically attacked a preteen girl, and when a couple Black teens yelled at him to stop he curled I to the fetal position and bawled his eyes out that he was being attacked…
They didn’t even touch him. Just psychopath crocodile tears.
Or the video he filmed between that and the shooting where he sat outside a CVS and fantasized about if paying customers were looting so he could kill them.
He went out there with a gun so he could feel like a big strong man and kill someone.
Those videos would have helped establish his frame of mind when the shootings took place.
