It's far, far fetched. A horrible tragedy and these kids are scaired (as they should be) and are trying to save face.blc wrote: "Jostled a backpack with a 9mm semi-automatic pistol inside" ?! Is it just me, or does this seem rather far-fetched?
I suppose the pistol could have been a Glock or one of its clones, in a backpack with a pencil through the trigger guard and it got jostled in just the right way and bang. But I doubt it.
The crime was not teaching those kids gun safety.
