and had seen them before, but he did not know either ofthem personally. He knew that they were both associated with liking
"German stuff." I asked Bootsma if by German stuff he meant Nazi related interests. He stated he did not know if it was a
Nazi related interest.
Bootsma has "A" lunch which begins at about 1110 hours. For lunch he went down to the cafeteria. In the cafeteria, he sat
at a table by the supports in the middle of the room. He sat with studentsChad Sharply and Kevin Elsmore, He stated that

Wiseman. He said they were in the commons for approximately 10 to 15 minutes before first hour.
Orban said that he didn't notice anything unusual in the cafeteria at that time. He didn't notice any
unattended duffel bags or backpacks, although he said he wasn't really looking for any.
Orban left the commons area and went to Spanish on the lower level for first hour. He left
Spanish and second hour went to chemistry on the main level, for third hour he went to history on the
main level and after third hour he went to his locker and then to fourth hour across from the
gymnasium, his math dass. He then left his math class and went to the A lunch. He said that when
he arrived he got in line to purchase food and after he purchased his pizza he went to sit at his table.
He identified the table that he was sitting at as table AA He said that the other people at his table
were Braden Pesusich~Ali Boukhatfa. Seth Biggi,"'lan Hales,YNick Romynyshin, Rani Rao: Ryan Baris'
and Terry, last name unknown.
Orban said that he sat down at the table, took two bites of this pizza when he heard a janitor
come in through an outside door yelling for everyone to get down. He said that he looked out the
windows and saw a person who he believes was Dylan Klebold shot a male student in the leg and
throw a pipe bomb into the parking lot. He said that he and other students then got under the tables.
He said that then he and other students began running towards the stairs and as they ran Orban
could hear what he described as booms thinking in retrospect that these were pipe bombs. Orban
said that as he approached the stairs he could see that the stairwell was quite crowded and there
was a teacher in the hallway by the food cart directing them down the hall. He said that he ran down
the hall until he had to make a right and followed that hallway down to the last classroom. He said
there were numerous students going into that classroom and there were several teachers in the class
with them. He said that after several minutes the teachers heard the shooting from what he believes
was upstairs and he, at the direction of the faculty, ran out the south exit doors from this classroom,
across the student parking lot and to a house at Polk Street and Pierce. He said they went in the
house for a short time and a student there had a cell phone and he was able to call his mother. He
!-"Ileved he was able to contact her at approximately 11 :45 a.rn. Orban had been separated from his

friends at the table when he left the table. Orban did not leave anything behind in the cafeteria. He
said he had been wearing brown corduroy's and a green T shirt. He said he took his backpack with
him when he left. Orban said that he noticed nothing unusual in the cafeteria prior to the incident
beginning, that he didn't notice any large duffel bags or backpacks that appeared to be unattended.
However, he stated that he probably wouldn't notice such an item because it Is common practice for
the students to drop their packs and go get food, using their packs to save a spot. Orban said that
he was familiar with the trench coat mafia only by name and knew that they were kids that wore
trench coats, but had no run in's with them and could provide no further information on the trench
coat mafia. He also did not know Eric Harris or Dylan Klebold. Orban did not know of any students
who were building pipe bombs or stockpiling weapons. He does not have his own web site and does
not have Internet access at home.
I next interviewed Braden Pesusich. He indicated he had not been in the cafeteria any other
time during the day and had gone to the cafeteria for the A lunch. He said that he had come from the
upstairs into the cafeteria, had gone to the lunch line and then made his way to the table when the
incident began. He said that he observed people standing up by the west windows and felt perhaps
there was a fight. He said that he had a fairly clear view of the kid running up the hill, trying to run up
and get away, when he heard more shots. He said that he then observed what he thought were pipe
bombs being thrown Into the parking lot. He said that he saw one of the gunmen by the window
shooting down towards the ground. He could not see what the gunman was shooting at. The only
description he could remember was that this gunman had long cUrly hair and in retrospect thinks it
was Dylan Klebold. He said about this time people were starting to run for the stairs to the cafeteria.
He said that he ran along the south wall and that he saw a girl screaming. He thought he name
might be Kim or Patty Blair. He couldn't be sure because the Blair's are twins. He said that the girl
was screaming "Ann Marie, Ann Marie". He said that shortly past this girl that was screaming, was a
male student who was covered with blood. He said he didn't appear to be injured, but he had blood
"It over him. He said he next focused on the stairs and saw there was a large crowd there and ran

back to the table when the incident began, He heard a commotion and a loud thud outside the west
windows. He got up and saw a suspect with what he believed was a shotgun. He observed him
shoot the gun but did not know where he shot it into, He then saw what he thought was a pipe bomb

7:10am to 7:15am, and that she parked in her assignedparking space, number 263. She said she entered the
school through the west cafeteria door, or walked through the upper door on the west side into the library. She
said she couldn't recall exactly which way she got into the school that day. She said that she does not go to her
locker, the other student uses the locker and she uses her car as her locker. She said that she went to her first
hour Spanish class, which is the comer roomin the ForeignLanguage wing, which is taught by Mrs. Birch
Sterling; then left that class to go to her second hour class on the mainlevel, the Physics room. taught by Mr.

Doyle. She said that she wasn't feeling well. and then went to the payphones by the main office to call her
motherso that her mother could contact the office and give her a sick excuse. She said that Jennifer was with
her at that time. She said that after she called her mother, she then went into the Science departmentto Mr.
Johnson's class. She had a class where some baby chickswere being experimented on and they needed an
injection. However, Mr. Johnson was busy and she didn't have time to speakwith him. She then went back
downstairs into the commons to look for a friend and was getting ready to leaveWhen a girl came running in
through the east most southerly door and yelled that someonehad been shot. She said that about the same time,
Mr. Sanders came running through the commons near the serving line and was yelling for students to get down.
She said that she went down behind a table by the student entrance and attempted to go out through the student
entry doors. However she thinks there was a female teacherby the doors telling them not to go aut that way
because they did not mow who was outside. She said that as she was gettingunder the table, she saw a med
panicked rush for the stairs, and she decided to run down the hall into the Foreign Language wing. She ran as far

down the hallway as she could go and then turned and ended up in a comer room with three female teachers,
one of them being Mrs, Lucas, the other two she doesn't know, She said that as she arrived into that room, there
were fire alarms going off; and she heard two, what she described as loud, explosions and several gunshots, The
gunshots were spaced far apart and were not repetitive. She said that these sounds seemed to come from
directly above her in the Science area. After these loud explosions, the teachers decided that they needed to get
out of the building, and they ran out the south exit doors, and across the junior parking lot to the house on the
comer ofPolk and Pierce, She met a friend there, Kelly Dickson, and Kelly drove her home, She estimated that
she arrived home at approximately II :5Qam. She though that perhaps she was in the Foreign Language room
with Mrs Lucas for approximately ten minutes before evacuating the building. She said the other students she
recognized in the Foreign Language room were Leigh Kamens, Steven Trujillo, Heather Dinkle, and Steven
Lebsack. Burgesser said that she did not see any of the suspects. She did not notice any duffle bags.or
, _ckpacks in the commons area during any of the time thar she was in there,
Burgesser has heard ofthe trench coat mafia, and only knew that they wore trench coats and preferred to wear
dark colors. She said that she knew who-,-as, but only by sight; she wouldn't describe herself as a
friend or even an acquaintance. She said that in her sophomore year she had Dylan Klebold in some ofher
classes. She recalls that at that time he didn't appear to be into the dark clothing and the trench coat mafia. She
never had any problems with him in any ofher classes. She did not know who Eric Harris was, and does not
recall ever seeing him at school. Burgesser does have Internet access at home, but does not have an !CQ
account, nor a screen name. She hasn't accessed any trench coat mafia sites on the Internet. She was in school
during the Rebel News Network thought ofthe day, but did not see it. She's heard since that it had something
to do with it not being a good day to be at the school, or 4:20 indicating that it wasNational Pot Smoking Day.
Burgesser does not know anyone with a double pierced eyebrow. The only other information Burgesser could
provide is that she knew there had been Prom signs posted around the school, and that Onthe Prom signs it said
it's coming...4/17/99. She said she had heard that the 17 was crossed out and changed to a 20, and that the Prom
