Deja Taylor, mother of 6-year-old who shot teacher in Virginia, to plead guilty to gun crimes N'dea Yancey-Bragg Jeanine Santucci USA TODAY
The mother of a 6-year-old boy who shot his teacher in Virginia earlier this year is expected to plead guilty to federal gun charges Monday, according to her attorney. Deja Taylor was charged last week with illegally using drugs while owning a firearm and making a false statement about using marijuana when she purchased the gun, court records show. Her son used the weapon to shoot first-grade teacher Abby Zwerner in January. Taylor, who is also was charged in state court in connection with the shooting, could face up to 25 years in prison on the federal charges, but her attorney Gene Rossi said sentencing guidelines call for 18 to 24 months in prison. Rossi called the case "a perfect storm of horrible consequences." "It's a terrible tragedy because a wonderful teacher's life was almost taken, but it's also a tragedy because a very young boy, a very young son got hold somehow of a gun owned by Ms. Deja Taylor." Rossi told USA TODAY. "Ms. Taylor's role in this tragedy is a complete accident, but she will have forever have guilt for what her son did."
