In the concluding part of our Columbine series, we examine the horrific events of April 20th, the elements of Harris and Klebold's plan that failed, and the devastating consequences. As Colorado natives, this episode is especially poignant. We then shift our focus to prevention, discussing the critical importance of teaching empathy early, the necessity for parental intervention with troubled youth, and the complex debate surrounding parental liability in such tragedies. (Producers note: be kind about Nat's sound quality, she's literally trying to bounce that baby out of her tummy while she talks!)
