FEDERAL BUREAU OJ)' INVESTIGATION

10/27/99

Attorney PAUL PRENDERGAST, 1901 West LittletonBoulevard, Littleton, Colorado, telephone 303-797-3300, wasadvised of the identity of the interviewing agent and that thepurpose of contacting him was to schedule an interview with hisclient, MELISSA SOWDER, a student at COLlJMllrNE HIGH SCHOOL (CHS).SOWDER had informed two students at CHS she knew of the 04/20/99attack two weeks ahead of time and that she supported the actionsof ERIC HARRIS and DYLAN KLESOLll. PRENDERGAST provided thefollowing information:

PRENDERGAST refused to make SOWDER available for aninterview by the FBI. SOWDER was a "special ed' kid who sufferedfrom mental problems and would be further traumatized by aninterview with law enforcement officials. SOWDER had preViouslybeen sent by her parents to a mental health facility as a resultof the Columbine incident.

SOWDER's father was also slowly dying from a severeheart ailment and would also be traumatized by having hisdaughter upset.

SOWDER did, in fact, know either HARRIS Or KLEBOLD, butPRENDERGAST could not recall specifically which one. SOWDERbelonged to a social outcast group at CHS, but it was not theTRENCH COAT MAFIA.

SOWDER was known by her friends and family as being aliar and could not be counted on to provide investigators withtruthful, accurate information.

PRE~~ERGAST and SOWDER's parents believed that forattention, she made-up the story of knowing about the eRSshooting two weeks before it happened. None of them believed shetruly had anything to do with the incident.

PRENDERGAST was advised by the interviewing agent thatSOWDER could possibly be subpoenaed to provide testimony, ifdeemed appropriate.

Narrative:On 5-7-99 I spoke with the parents of Megan Steckly, hernamewas idantified as possibly the Megan beingreferred to in the video as oneof the girts Ericand Dylan did not like. Mr. Stecklyrequested thet noadditional interviews be conducted with his dal.Ighter unless absolutely necessary. I explained to Mr. Steeklythe infonnation I was working from and was told he andhis wifehad spoken with Megan several limesreference the incident andthe knowiedge she had aboutEric and Dylan. Megan had told them shedid notknow or associate with eitherof them and had notparticipated in anyteasing of themfor wearing theirtrench coats.Mr.Steely told mewhen Megan was interviewed whatshe observed in the cafeteria and herknowledge of Eric and Dylan hadbeen discussed.

I did search rapid start for the interview and i feel it is notnecessary to conduct another interview with'vlegan as requested by herparents and as we are not surethis is the Megan referred to in the video.

Narrative .Re: Control number 1436

On 04-26·99 contact was made with Patricia Stevens, a One on One Special education aide at ColumbmeHigh School. She noted being in the lunchroom at the time of the initial shooting, seated with a number ofapecial-ed students at a table between the exit door apd the serving line. She identifies the students at hertable as 1. Nathan Sansler; 2. Ryan Deatherage; 3. Melinda Hollingsworth; 4. Adam Kyler (a woundedvictim); and initially 5. Kyle Velasquez (victim). Another aide at the table was identified as SamanthaMeyers. (!>~..... ~ +.0.."'- fi.!i.1!.)IOV.

She noted that whereas Kyle Velasquez always ate with them, he generally finished early and wanderedaround the school visiting with other students. She attributes this to his being fatally wounded.

Stevens noted being seated eating When she heard another student run into the lunchroom and announcethat '(a name she can not remember) has been shot!' She then remembered Dave Sanders yelling foreveryone to 'get down'. She recalls a series of rapid gunfire, and students being running from thelunchroom. She and Samantha Meyers ran together from the school with the students, exiting via theau.... 'torium to a door on the north side of the school. They were then directed by officers on the scene topr, Jed to the Jefferson County Library.

While at the library, she had occasion to talk with a CHS student, Breanne Cook, (303-948-2129), whotalked of knowing the 2 gunmen, and also of having seen them at the school with another person. Whileexplaining this to Ms. Stevens, Breanne Cook became noticeably alarmed and pointed to a male standingamong the students at the library and identified this individual as the same person she had seen with the 2suspects. This individual was described as a white male, 18-20, red, dirty, malted down hair, 6-2 with aslender build, wearing a pink/yellow tie-died shirt. He was described as having "wild eyes", and did not stayat the library, but wandered west from the library toward the lake present at that location.

Ms. Stevens had shared this information with Penny Zerr (303-978-943316985 So. Kendall) a Home-Eoteacher at CHS, who immediately identified this individual as a former student,

Ms. Stevens noticed no suspicious bags or other items in the area of her table, and did not observed eithersuspect in the lunchroom prior to the incident

OBSERVATION / INVESTIGATION:

On May 10, 1999 I was assigned to conduct an interview with ColumbineHigh School student, Courtney Stinton, who was possibly in the cafeteria atthe time of the shooting. I spoke to Paula Stinton and made an appointmentfor the interview on May 12th at 1000.

On May 12th at 1050 I arrived at 2943 South Zenobia Street andcontacted Paula and Courtney Stinton. Courtney said that she was a studentat Columbine High School, in the tenth grade, and was in the cafeteriaduring the shootings.

Courtney said that she arrived in the cafeteria at about 11:05AM, andwas seated at the table identified as "M" but she was not exactly sure ofthe table location. She continued to say that she was seated with MelissaPorter. Courtney believes that she had left her back pack on top of thetable as only she and Melissa were sitting there. Courtney advised thatshe did not see a duffel bag on the floor in the cafeteria when shearrived, nor did she see anyone carry a duffel bag into the cafeteria Whileshe was there.

Courtney said that she first realized there was trouble was whenstudents ran to the windows and were standing all. the tables looking out thewindows. At this time a male subject, Who Courtney does know, came run:lingin the west door near the faculty lounge. The students then startedcraWling under the tables. She said that she also got under the table, andthen looked out the window. At this time she saw Dylan (Klebold) shootsomething all. the ground near the west door. Courtney said that she saw

Dylan point a gun, which she said that he was holding with two hands, andshe heard a shot. courtney said that she did not see who was shot. Atthis time a female teacher crawled to her table and told her and Melissa tocrawl to the stairs. She said that she crawled to the stairs and then gotup and ran up the stairs. Courtney advised that when she reached the topof the stairs she heard a big boom possibly in the libary. She continuedto say that she was moving down the south main level hall. As sheapproached science room eight a teacher directed her and eight otherscudents to hide in the science room which ehey did. Courtney advised thata table was placed in front of the glass window. Courtneycontinued to say that after about fifteen minutes someone fired a shotthrough the dOOr window and table into the room. Courtney said that shecould hear at least two people talking outside of ehe room in the hall.She could not hear what was being said that and neither subject doing thetalking called the other by name. Courtney advised that after about twoto three hours of hidding in the class room she and the others crawledinto a storage room to the east of the class room where they remained untila swat escorted them out of the building. Courtney said that she isnot aquainted with Eric Harris and only recognized Dylan Klebold becausehis picture was on T.V. and she had seen him around school. She statedthat she had no contact with either subject, and does not know anyone whois a member of the TrenCh Coat Mafia. She continued to say that none ofher friendS is a member of the group nor do they associate with itsmembers. Further Courtney is not familiar with any names that Harris orKlebold used on the internet.

Courtney described her pack as a navy blue bag made by WesternProduces or something like that. The bag had a tag advertising a candidatefor class president on the strap. The bag contained pictures of France,two three ring binders, a book, a house key, a supply bag, her schoolidentification, and her wallet.

Courtney had no further information and the interview concluded at1030.

Date 0{ transonpUC/Il 5/1/99

On 4/29/99, Johnny L. Strobel, DOB 2/13/81, 7791South Carr Street, Littleton, Colorado, was advised the identityof the interviewing Agents, and the nature and purpose of theinterview. He provided the fallowing information.

On 4/20/99, Johnny arrived at Coluwbine High School atnormal time, approximately 7:10 a.m. He went into thecommons/cafeteria area and met with sorne of his friends toinclude:

1. Artie Mar2. Ian Marris3. Paul Banker4. Mike and Justin Nafee

He didn't notice anything out of the ordinary, toinclude any large duffel bags. There were several other studentsin the commons as well, which is not unusual for this time of themorning. He then went to his normal classes, to include hisscience class which is the last class before first period lunoh.He then walked down to the cafeteria to go to his lunch period.

After arriving in the cafeteria, he exited thecafeteria through the south exit doers. This was atapproximately 11:15 a.m. There were a large number of studentsin the cafeteria at this point. He then sat down at a tableoutside of the cafeteria, and noticed two males standing in theparking lot apprOXimately 150 yards away. He could not identifywho they were at this distance, but could see that one had a longgun and a mask, and the other had just a long gun. They wereboth dressed in black. Johnny thought that this was a prank,because there had been talk of senior prank day. He then wentback in the cafeteria, and exited the cafeteria through the westcafeteria doors, and walked around to the library. For reasonsthat he could not explain, Johnny did not enter the library, butwent back down to the cafeteria. When he arrived in thecafeteria, there were a lot of kids looking out the west windows,and he heard a teacher yelling to get down. He went over to 'table X or Q, to find his friend, and got down under one of thetables. He was under the table with the following students:

1. Scott Streeb2 . Zack Thompson3 . Dan Yeager4. Joe Tran

After getting under the table, he believes that thisis the first time that he possibly heard a shot. Along with manyother students, he ran up the stairs and down the hallwayadjacent to the math and science Wing, out the exit near the mathwing, across Pierce, and into Leewood park.

Next, Johnny thought that his Erother, Bobby may havestill been in the school, so he returned to the school on thesouth side. He entered through the business hall, alone. Hewalked back in towards the cafeteria, near the school store.From the area of the school store, he could see a gunmen dressedin black next to the trophy cases. From the point that he reentered the school. he heard large amounts of gun fire. Thegunmen turned toward him, and although he is not certain, thegunmen may have pointed the gun towards him and fired. He alsoheard what he believes was a second gunmen at the top of thesteps next to the trophy case, laughing. Again, for reasons thathe cannot explain, he told the laughing gunmen to 'shut up'. Hecannot recall exiting the school, but he does remember walking upto a house very close to the south side of the school, on acorner inte~section, and some students yelling for him to getinside the house. He remained in the house for a sho~t time, andthen walked to his Grandmother's house located in the vicinity ofCoal Mine and Platte Canyon.

At no time during the school day did Johnny noticeanyone carrying any duffel bags that stood out as noticeable orstrange. He did not see anyone resembling Harris or Klebold oneither Monday or Tuesday. He knew of the Trench Coat Mafia(TCM1, however he never talks or associates with any of them.

Johnny does use the Internet, and has a screen name of"KilL BUNS·. He does not use any chat rooms, and nevercorresponded via E-mail or otherwise with Harris Klebold, or anyTCM members/associates.

He had arrived in the cafeteriaat 1115, following his 4"' hourmath class. He was first alerted to thesituation by 3 janitors who began running through thecafeteria yelling that someone was in the parking lotwith a gun. Shortly thereafter, Mr. Sanders ran through the cafeteriayelling for everyoneto get down undertheir tables. Students soon began running from the cafeteria, and he followed the crowd up the main stairs,eventuallyarriving at a math room. He entered the classroom, which was in session, and told the teacher,a substitute for Mr, Blackford, that someone with a gun wasin the cafeteria and was coming his direction.Tr 'ass then exitedvia an emergency fire door in the classroom, and he accompanied this class toLeawood Perk where they waited with other students.

Docket N\1lIlI:ler.

PBI # 174A-DN·57419

Investigator. Vondenkamp

On 5/12/99 ! interviewed 14 year ald CHS student Candyce Therrien at

home in Littleton, Ca. Candyce's step mother was present during thisinterview.

Candyce stated she was in "An lunch at CHS on 4/20/99. She had

walked with Angie schwart/ from Ms Dimanna' s math class to the

cafeteria, arriving around 11.20am. They stopped at a table and put

down their backpacks and walked towards the food line. ! showed

Candyce a drawing of the cafeteria which depicted all the tables. I

pointed out specific area to give Candyce a better understanding of

the drawing's lay-out. She looked at the drawing and pointeCl to

table 0 where she had placed her backp~k. She believes that Billy

(unknown last name} anCl Jennifer Barnes were sitting there.

CanClyce went to the food line, near table ZZ and was preparing to pay

for lunch. She believed this was about 11:25am. Candyce stated she

did not notice a large duffle hag anywhere in the cafeteria, nor did

she notice anyone carrying a large Cluffle bag into the cafeteria on

4/20/99, or the previous day.

Around 11:25am she recalled hearing ·firecracker" noises outside the

west windows. A student came running in the cafeteria through the

doors in the northwest corner by table WW and rlled there was a

gun. . She thinks the student was Chris Markham, but could not be

sure. She got down on the floor near the cash register table. She

continued to hear the same noise outside. The kids in the cafeteria

began running towards the inside steps. She ran to the auditorium

1 JC-001.004592

doors north of the steps, but the doors were locked. She then went

back to the bathrooms in the cafeteria, which are near the auditorium

doors. She recalled that several students were in there, attempting

to hid in stalls. She was in the bathroom about 1-2 minutes, then

ran out into the auditorium because someone had unlocked the doors.

She ran into the auditorium, then out into the the north hallway.

She continued running and turned left near the administration, and

exited out the building behind the gymnasium. She ran to Clemont

Park, then onto the public library because a policeman had informed

them to go there.

Candyce stated that she did not see anybody shooting a weapon, or

anybody wearing a trenchcoat during this time. When she exited the

bathroom, she did not see any gunman. She recalled that when she was

upstairs running through the hall, she heard more "rapid fire" type

gunshots behind her. She believed these gunshots where coming from

the cafeteria, or downstairs.

Candyce had no further information on the shootings, and had knew

nothing of the TO!.
