U.S.: A decade after Columbine, survivors move on but don’t forget

  • I feel almost pulled there to see how everyone is doing and where everyone is. A lot of people
    have made their peace with it,
    but it doesn’t mean they’re forgetting it.
  • Kristi Mohrbacher • A 26-year-old former student at Columbine High School, on the legacy the shooting has left the community around the Denver-area school. Among other things, the shootings by Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold killed 12, wounded 23, led to a rash of copycat crimes and inspired a soon-to-be-released film.
