When 27-year-old first grade teacher Abby Zwerner was shot by a six-year-old student in her classroom, the story shocked the country. But what happened before that single gunshot tells an even darker story. Tonight, Katie retraces every warning that staff gave about the child bringing a gun to school, how those concerns were allegedly dismissed, and how Abby still managed to get her students to safety after being hit. She then follows the fallout, from the child’s mother facing prison time to Abby’s civil victory against the former assistant principal. Meanwhile, investigators probe missing records and rumors of a cover up inside the school.
