Dillard Teacher Cleared, Will Return To Class:

The teacher from Dillard High who was thought to have prior knowledge of the gun used to kill Amanda Collette has been cleared by police and has returned to work.

It was thought that a student told the teacher about the gun Teah Wimberly used before she shot Amanda.

Dillard Teacher May Have Known About Gun:

A teacher at Dillard high school may have had prior knowledge of Teah Wimberly having a gun has been placed on administrative leave.

There are several theories on whether or not the teacher knew before the fatal shooting of Amanda Collette. One says that a student received a text message about shooting from Wimberly and told the teacher. Another says the teacher wasn’t told until after the incident. And the last one says that the student and the teacher don’t speak the same language. There is also a fourth theory that says the student is full of it.

Personally, I can’t think of any shooting that’s taken place in a school where a teacher had prior knowledge of a gun and didn’t do something about it.

According to the article, it’s looking more like the teacher will be cleared according to sources.

Student may have told Dillard High officials about gun:

Police on Florida are investigating whether or not Teah Wimberly showed her gun to another student prior to her shooting Amanda Collette and whether or not that student told a school faculty member.

Some students are also saying that Wimberly had romantic feelings for Amanda and that’s what led to the shooting.

If that is the case Uncle Trench has to remind the kids again. Listen kids, again I’ll tell you, your romantic lives don’t end with whomever you fall in love with in high school. And no person out there is worth ending yours and somebody else’s life over. I know it doesn’t feel like that now but trust me. Once you get out of high school you’ll realize how unimportant it was in the grand scheme of things.

Updates in the shooting death of Dillard High Student Amanda Collette.

The suspect has been named and she is 15-year-old Teah Wimberly. She has been charged with first-degree murder.

After the shooting Wimberly walked across the street to a restaurant and told police she had just shot her friend. Also, a witness stated he saw the pair arguing when Wimberly pulled out a gun and shot Amanda.

Wimberly is being held for 21 days to undergo a psych eval.

Most of the reports say that prosecutors are leaning towards charging Wimberly as an adult.

The motive behind the attack may have been a falling out between the two. Wimberly allegedly brought the gun to school so Amanda would know what it’s like “to feel pain”.
