The student who survived the deadly school shooting at Lamar High School testified Friday morning in a certification hearing for the teen murder suspect.
Judge Alex Kim said the victims’ family had expressed retaliation fears if the boy was released from detention. While the judge said he saw no evidence of that, he is keeping the teen in juvenile.She was actually not a student at Lamar and was sitting on a bench waiting to be transferred to another school when she was hit.
"At first, I didn’t know I had been shot. I had felt like, in the panic, somebody had accidentally elbowed me in the face," she recalled. "So I had went to, like, touch my face to, like, relieve the pain, and I brought my hand down and there was blood on my hand. So I was like, oh my goodness, I was shot in the face."Investigators have not identified him.
