The mother of one of the teens involved in a deadly classroom stabbing in Santa Rosa says officials at Montgomery High could -- and should -- have done more to prevent it.
says officials at Montgomery High could -- and should -- have done more to prevent it.
"The one thing that I do want to make clear is three weeks ago, there was an incident with the person who stabbed the boys and he attempted to jump my son and assault him. I came here and asked specifically what was going to be done," she said."We are not the only ones who had concerns regarding the safety of our children here in this school. There were multiple parents involved regarding issues with this individual.
She said the school recently alerted her to violence and tension between the older students and the freshman suspect. "Our children were failed. And ultimately it took Jayden's life being taken for eyes to open up and people to actually realize that this isn't a joke," Cervantes said. "He had some conflict earlier during the week with the kid or something," he said."I don't see why the school didn't do something about that. They stabbed all his tires and stuff on his car."
