Family of East High shooting suspect breaks silence.

Loved ones of Austin Lyle, the 17-year-old East High School student who shot two administrators before turning the gun on himself, have spoken publicly for the first time. Lyle's mother is grieving the loss of her son and has given a close friend permission to discuss a little about her son. The friend and Lyle's mother wrote a letter describing Lyle's love for baseball, track, fishing, biking, and the outdoors, as well as his innate ability to excel in math and science. The letter also raises important questions about how students, particularly young Black men, are supported, valued, and cared for in the classroom.
