“As Guidepost works to learn what led up to this tragedy, what happened immediately prior to and on the day of the shooting, and exactly how the school responded that day and in the days that followed, our team has spoken to dozens of community members, students, Oxford High School staff and administrators, teachers, and family members,” said Andrew O’Connell, Guidepost president of investigations. “These sessions have been invaluable. It is important that our investigators continue to speak to anyone who wishes to share relevant information. Every interview is important, and Guidepost is working carefully to ensure that all information is handled appropriately as the team works to prepare its public report.”
