Charles “Andy” Williams was 15 years old when he used a revolver to shoot more than a dozen people at Santana High School in March 2001.
Charles “Andy” Williams hangs his head in court Thursday as he listens to testimony from the families of the victims of his shooting spree at Santana High last year. Like bookends of despair, his lawyers Ron Bobo, left, and Randy Mize, also hang their heads. The teen who opened fire at Santana High School in 2001, killing two students and wounding 13 others, is up for parole, and the District Attorney’s Office said victims in the case can participate in the hearing.
Former employee faces felony charges for threat to kill workers at site of Half Moon Bay mass shooting In 2018, Williams tried to go before a parole board by asking former Gov. Jerry Brown to commute his sentence. The request, which the District Attorney’s Office opposed, was denied. “Having victim voices at hearings like this are an extremely important part of the process,” said District Attorney Summer Stephan in a statement. “This particular crime has hundreds of victims associated with it and it’s important to us that victims are aware of their rights under the law to participate in the parole hearing if they wish to do so.”
