12 Year Old Killer of Michael Landsberry Identified
After a classmate gave an interview to a Spanish tv station and identified the 12 year old shooter, LE released the name of the student who fatally shot teacher Michael Landsberry (then himself) to the media and the public.
He was Jose Reyes and is described consistently as a kid who had a few friends, was kinda shy but usually smiling, was sometimes argumentative, didn't complain about being bullied, and liked to ride his bike and play video games like Call of Duty.
Motive still being investigated.
There's some talk that an anti-bully documentary, "Bully", which depicts a kid bringing a gun to school to shoot his tormentors and was reportedly shown to the students at Reyes's Sparks middle school, may have incited him - but that's just conjecture at this point.
