Active School Shooting

From what I understand, it has been confirmed the teacher never actually made any contact with the student, and the self inflicted GSW was not "accidental".

You are correct. She was moving towards him when he ate his muzzle.

Source?

When I Google her name, several pages of news links tell the same story of her intervening and him shooting himself in the neck.

That's because people read a story like this and parrot it w/o confirming kind of like was done here until it becomes 'fact' on the internet because in most settings it's rarely questioned. Of all the shortcomings of Facebook this probably bothers me the most. Regularly little gems like this just start being shared and re-posted and before you know it everyone is buying it because not everyone has a friend like me that takes a few seconds to question these sort of things. I know most of you old curmudgeons don't like Facebook but it's what you make of it and is a great way to help get our message out to social media which is where we're taking a bath currently in the court of public opinion because few of us are on it to speak the truth. I digress. These stories usually start with something like 'Not sure why this isn't being talked about more' or 'Facebook won't let this story get out' or 'most of my friends won't share this story' so they're pretty easy to spot.

I have an open mind - no dog in the fight - just have not heard otherwise.
Just looking for a source that I can read myself.
