"Sentencing Looms for Neglectful Mother of 6-Year-Old Virginia Shooter"

The mother of a 6-year-old Virginia boy who shot his teacher in January is set to be sentenced for felony child neglect. The boy brought his mother's gun to school and injured his teacher, sparking conversations about gun violence in schools and children's access to firearms. The injured teacher is also suing the school district for $40 million, claiming they ignored warnings about the child bringing a gun to school. The mother pleaded guilty to child neglect and faces up to six months in prison. She was previously sentenced to 21 months in prison on federal gun charges. The boy, who is too young to be prosecuted, is in the custody of a relative.
