Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee and U.S. Rep. David Kustoff are praising security measures at a Memphis Jewish school where an ex-student with a gun was stopped from entering the building in July
Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee and U.S. Rep. David Kustoff on Monday praised security measures at a Memphis Jewish school where a former student with a gun was stopped from entering the building in July, declaring strong safety procedures have become even more critical in light of the Israel-Hamas war. Lee and Kustoff, both Republicans, spoke with students at Margolin Hebrew Academy-Feinstone Yeshiva of the South during a visit to the suburban school.
Bowman was hospitalized in critical condition and has since recovered. He is now in custody at the Shelby County Jail. A possible motive for the attempt to enter the school has not been disclosed. Bowman, who friends and lawyers say has mental health issues, has pleaded not guilty to charges including attempted second-degree murder. Margolin School leaders said safety measures installed over recent years were a deterrent to the incident in July.
