She admitted to shunning the shooter. Because he was a fucking psycho. You seem to think a teenage girl should be responsible for rehabilitating the criminally insane.
She admitted to "ostracizing" him specifically, if you want to split hairs. And that was her best version of the story.
Because you seem to think teenage girls will tell the outright truth, and not the one that makes them look the best possible while downplaying all the worst edges of what they actually did.
I simply think that if you helped contribute to an outcome, you don't get to whine and cry victim when the outcome happens. Because there is a far gulf between "we didn't know him" or "he was kinda weird so we kept our distance" and "we outright ostracized him." You see how one is passive and the other active? That's where her responsibility lies.
Right, that's the point I'm getting at. The usage of the word "ostracized" and her demeanor/defensiveness and the "evidence" of his history all point to her and a few others actively taking a role in his isolation, instead of just avoiding this psycho like everyone else probably did.
Which is a key element in removing any victim whining she wanted to do, and puts a chunk of the responsibility for what happened squarely onto her lap.

I believe a teenage girl is telling the truth when the evidence backs her up. Cruz had been threatening to kill everyone for at least two years prior to the shooting; neither she nor anyone else should have any obligation to put up with that shit.

Ah yes, because when someone is deeply dangerous and you are afraid of him you should....make the situation worse by feeding into his victim complex and hatred of you by actively isolating him.
So I'll say it again:

She fucked around, and everyone found out for it.
