Teen wounds Midland girl, kills himself:
Jessica Forsyth was shot four times outside of H.H. Dow High School by her former boyfriend, 17-year-old David Benjamin Turner. She had recently transferred to get away from Turner. Turner tried gaining access to the school but was denied since he wasn’t a student. Forsyth was not attending classes that day. Turner called her and asked to meet her at Dow so he could return her stuff. Her mother took her to the school where Forsyth had a brief conversation with Turner until he took out a handgun and shot her four times before shooting himself in the head.
At last report Jessica was hospitalized and listed in serious but stable condition. She did not require surgery but may in the future.
Take it from Uncle Trench kids. Your high school girlfriend is not worth killing yourself or anybody over. The odds are you probably even won’t be together after graduation. Life really doesn’t even start until after high school.

H H Dow High School is my high school. I was there and it was terrifying!!! And by the way… Dow isn’t a Detroit high school…we are about 100 miles from Detroit…we are all praying for Jessica in her recovery and my school and community is very emotional and shook up by the incident…i know people who saw it actually happen and they are extremely tramatized.
Fixed.
How is Jessica doing these days? I talked to her online awhile before the shooting I hope she is doing better she is still in my prayers.
