DENVER — The mother of a student wounded in the Columbine High School massacre walked into a suburban pawn shop Friday, asked to see a handgun, loaded it and killed herself with a shot to the head.
Cara Jung Hochalter's suicide occurred about six months after her 17-year-old daughter, Anne Marie, was critically wounded in the April 20 tragedy and left partially paralyzed.
Hochalter, 48, entered the Alpha Pawn Shop in Englewood Friday morning and asked to see a handgun.
When a clerk turned around to fill out paperwork, Hochhalter loaded the weapon with bullets that she brought, then fired one round that hit the wall and a second round into her head, Englewood police spokeswoman Leticia Castillo said.
The suicide was the latest shock for students and families in the Columbine area.
A student was arrested this week in allegedly threatening to finish the job begun by two student gunmen at Columbine.
In addition, CBS-TV was criticized for broadcasting a snippet of the security camera videotape that was taken in the school cafeteria as the massacre unfolded.
Falwell meets with gays for anti-violence forum
LYNCHBURG, Va. — The Rev. Jerry Failwell, who has denounced homosexuals for years, held an unprecedented meeting with gay Christians on Saturday in an attempt to reduce violent acts against raws and Christians.
Both sides said the gathering was productive.
Dozens of anti-homosexual protesters demonstrated outside, yelling at gay supporters as they entered the church parking lot. The Rev. Fred Phelps of Topeka, whose congregation also taunted gays at the funeral of slain gay college student Matthew Shepard, said Falwell was a hypocrite for meeting with the Rev. Mel White, a gay minister, and his followers.
Falwell, who has long believed that homosexuality is a sin, insists he will not change his views but has agreed to tone down his anti-gay language.
Four hundred delegates attended the forum Saturday afternoon.
