If only someone in that class would have been armed.
Check it out:
- Chris Harper-Mercer ‘shot a female student after promising to spare her’
- He also ‘ordered Christians to crawl to him to be shot’, a survivor recalls
- And he carried on shooting an army vet after he said ‘it’s my son’s birthday’
- Also shot a woman as she tried to reason with him about his motivation
- His only bizarre act of mercy was to spare a boy after giving him a parcel
- The parcel contains a lengthy manifesto, police officers have confirmed
The Oregon shooter who killed nine and
injured nine ordered a girl to beg for her life before shooting her
anyway, a survivor recalls.
Chris Harper-Mercer prefaced his
murderous rampage by handing an envelope to one boy, told him to stand
in the corner and said ‘you’re the lucky one’.
However, his mercy extended no further.
In a chilling account from 18-year-old
survivor Lacey Scroggins, Harper-Mercer turned to one girl and said he
would spare her if she begged for her life. As she pleaded, he shot
her.
The 26-year-old killer also ordered
his Christian classmates to crawl into the middle of the room to be shot
dead, Scroggins’ father, Pastor Randy Scroggins, revealed.
Each victim was asked their religion. If Christian, they were shot dead. If not, they were shot and injured.
Scroggins survived by lying under the dying body of her friend, Treven Anspach, her father revealed.
Randy Scroggins received a phone call from Anspach’s mother while speaking with The Associated Press.
‘He saved my girl. I will forever call
your son my hero,’ he said, adding that he would mention her son, who
turned 20 last month, during his Sunday church service and ask for
prayers.
‘I’m so sorry for your loss.’
It is not known what was in the
envelope Harper-Mercer handed over to the spared boy, but police have
confirmed they retrieved a several-page manifesto he wrote from the
scene.
