1988 - Laurie Dann - school shooter. So many chances to put her in jail prior to the shooting. Threats, assault, false police reports, false rape accusations, stalking, harassment, theft..."the charges were dropped due to lack of evidence."

There's no greater crime than holding a woman responsible for her actions

>He accused Laurie of the crime, although he had not actually seen his attacker.

>Charges were dropped due to the lack of evidence.

Well, yeah.

I haven't read it, but if there is 'lack of evidence', then well, that's that. What more can they do?

If they've ignored evidence then that's a different story.

I went to this elementary school for two years! Hubbard Woods. I totally forgot about this. It was probably 1994, maybe 93 when I was there. I remember there was a hole in the glass at the entrance to the school that all the kids claimed was a bullet hole from the shooting.

The story the kids told was quite a bit different. It was before the internet so it was like a game of telephone, it just kept getting crazier and crazier (even though it started out crazy enough). I remember I was there for second grade, just like the kids who she shot. I remember one part of the story the kids told was that she had previously wrapped herself in saran wrap naked and rode an elevator in an office building up and down until the cops were called. For some reason that image always stuck with me.

And Nick Corwin park was right across the street, maybe five blocks from my house. We would always walk over there and play soccer or baseball. It was a really great park in a really great neighborhood. Like the ideal place to grow up. So sad what happened.

I talked to my aunt in Glencoe a while ago about crazy girls. Apparently Laurie Dann used to babysit for some of her friends' children and she told me how crazy she was with stealing and lying. I cant believe i didnt look up the whole story till now. How the fuck do you really know who is watching your kids?
