- Kylie Ossege, a teen who was shot at Oxford High School, gave an emotional victim impact statement during the sentencing for the shooter, on Friday. She detailed what she remembered from the shooting, and being next to her friend, Hana St. Juliana, who died in the shooting.
What a strong and brave young woman. She went through hell but had the power to comfort her friend Hana who was dying next to her. Kylie, if you ever read this, you are a fighter shining brightly through the darkness. I wish you a beautiful life despite all the difficulties. I wish you happiness and success on the path you will choose. I wish you that your pain can be relieved somehow. I wish you to be able to sit on your beloved horse someday.
Beautifully written!
Brave young woman. Horrific incident that NEVER should have happened. Do better adults of America! Protect our youth.
@@RtgvshdyYou’re in the comments section on CZcams. Address the governor using the proper mediums. 🤦🏻♀️
Parents need to be there more not just buy gifts and sweep problems under the rug. He was crying for help…literally. Yes his parents didn’t know he was planning this, but they kept putting bandaids over a seriously troubled mind.
so true! Arm our children and teachers!
Huh? We have a constitutional right to own guns to protect ourselves! This is on Ethan and his parents......the gun didn't get up walk to school, load itself, and kill people 🤡
@@quinnlarkin7681huh? Seriously. What an awful idea
When Kylie said she goes to Michigan State University, my heart sank. I’m her age and can’t even begin to comprehend what she’s been through. Her bravery is incredibly admirable, and I wish her nothing but the best.
Me too! I hope she wasn’t anywhere near the shooting at msu.
@@hellynnwheels6819i was just thinking that
@@hellynnwheels6819 she was 😢 to my knowledge she's the only person in America to survive 2 school shootings.
I don't think they wanted her to bring that up in the trial.
I know a girl that was a senior at Oxford when the shooting happened. She took some time off of school cuz it really messed her up & then a few weeks after she started at UofM, there was a shooting there!! She lived through 2 mass shootings in as many years.
@@CLL21 was that Kylie? Or are there multiple people who have survived 2 school shootings in Michigan? 💔😥 I'm glad she's okay.
My dad was a neurosurgeon for 40 years, and I listened. This girl is STRONG. Grown men can’t live with the levels of pain she has daily. That’s a warrior.
No i am a warrior bro, i got Aztec blood my brother
@@HappyYummmy oh boy. Smh.
You mentioned your dad is a neurosurgeon for 40 years like that's supposed to qualify what you say? lmfao people are funny. And way to make this into a sexist ordeal. Grow up.
@@Coolhand69 ……from a guy who has this as his profile name ☝️
@@Ashbash-kf5xd For one you have no legitimate rebuttal just a deflection of my response, secondly you're assuming my gender
I was extremely impressed by this young woman's testimony. How heart breaking.
This shouldn't be the norm for our youth. I hate this.
No child should have to go through this. EVER.
Agreed! but I will add NO ONE should ever go through anything like this.
LOL,cliche
What a brave strong young woman. Thank you for loving your friend Hana and being there for her at the end even while enduring your own pain.
I cried from the beginning. She was very powerful.
Wow shes so young but speaks as tho she's an old soul. Bless her for having the courage to get up in front of everyone and speak her truths and what she had to endure that day. Shes a beautiful young lady and I hope she has the best life from here on out.
As a former student of UNC Charlotte, which as many know, was the site of a deadly shooting back in 2019, hearing this girl speak absolutely broke my heart. Similar to her, in the days following that day, especially when I came home for the summer, the amount of survivor's guilt I felt was through the roof. Since I was going to be entering my senior year in the fall, a thought that was constantly in the back of my mind was that even though my parents would be able to see me walk the stage at commencement the following year, the parents of the two students who lost their lives will never get that chance. Kylie, if you ever see this, just know that even though I don't know you personally, I have your back and wish you nothing but happiness on your path. I wish there was something I could do to take your pain away.
Kylie, I’m so sorry that you’re enduring such pain and loss. Your strength and courage is an inspiration. Please never give up.
Kylie’s statement was powerful. There is so much to love about this girl. Her strength, despite the disabilities and pain she has to live with now makes me like her even more.
This is absolutely, horrific. My heart is broken broken broken. These poor kids, this poor kid
What an extraordinary young lady. She will continue to rise above the horrific acts of violence perpetrated on her and others that day. She is as she said a very strong person, she’d have to be to be able to stand there and read her victim impact statement without completely falling apart. Rest in Peace Hana. Thank God you at least had one friend there with you before you tragically died. I long for a day where we don’t hear in the news that yet another school shooting or shooting of innocent people has happened AGAIN in the US. There has to be a way to stop the violence that has permeated so many people’s lives. Innocent people that just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. No parent should EVER worry that their child is going to be hurt or murdered at school. How many more have to die before those in positions of power do something about it? Sending Kylie and all the families and friends of those victims that both survived and didn’t survive from Australia.
What a brave girl to tell her story. I’m not sure who the gentleman is standing by her but he seems to be quietly giving her emotional support to make her feel safe enough to tell her story. 😢
What an articulate young woman. I'm so glad that she has an amazing support system around her and that Michigan State has helped by making accommodations for her. I am very sorry that she will continue to deal with life long physical limitations. Praying that modern medicine will be able to help her and lessen her pain.
What an impressive and compassionate young woman. A future leader, I'm sure.
Bright blessings to her and her support system.
Here's to future physical and emotional healing for this amazing person ❤️
Hoping and praying for a full recovery for this lovely young lady
This young lady is so well spoken. It breaks my heart to see and hear all about the trauma she has faced because of this senseless and horrific shooting.
I'm so proud of Kylie for pressing on with determination and grit to keep on going with her life. I can't imagine how difficult it is to cope with everything that her body deals with.
Kylie has amazing parents, family and friends to lend their unconditional love and grace and support. May God continue to protect her and help heal her physically, spiritually and emotionally. May he surround her with grace and protection.
May he give the doctors and therapist the strength to help her through this trying time. ❤❤❤❤
Thank you for such a beautiful, courageous and heartwarming testament to the human spirit and living in honor of your fellow students. Their memories will forever be cherished. Continue to be a light.
How heartbreaking what has happened to this poor girl for no good reason at all and no fault of her own. I feel victims like Kylie are often forgotten when considering mass shootings as they are not in the official victim count of those who lost their lives. But their life was still destroyed and altered completely. I’m so sorry this happened to you, Kylie, you are a very brave young woman for providing this impact statement and fighting through the pain and living your life to the fullest you can. I wish you nothing but healing and happiness. ❤❤
What a beautiful strong young lady! I’m so sorry for everything you have been through because of that sick young boy😞 I can’t imagine the pain that you’re experiencing every single day. 😢 I hope one day you will not have pain and that you’ll live a happy fulfilling life ❤
Praying for this young lady. She’s truly a warrior.
i just want to hug her
Wow, so well articulated.
May God bless this beautiful young woman and all of the other victims of this horrible school shooting that they endured and have come through stronger and more positive than they thought they could be! My hope is that the court will hear their stories and see their pain, and sentence this monster to prison to the fullest extent of the law so that he will never be free to walk the streets outside of the prison walls again for the rest of his miserable life!
This young woman's strenth is admirable. The fact that the monster sitting in court on trial for his horrendous crimes is probably really enjoying hearing this heart rending speech. 🤬
And he thought he had it bad ! NOT
Such a brave young woman! May God bless her with a fulfilled life
Prayers to this beautiful young lady that she has a fulfilling life past the tragedy she has endured and the grief of losing her friend as she lay close to her helplessly.
Be strong and brave in your journey forward and be patient with yourself. May your pain and recovery enable you to overcome and achieve great things. God Bless!🙏🏼
prayers dont do shit
She is a very strong & Brave Woman! Because of what she went through! She should live her life on her terms!! And she should go for what she wants out of life!!
She’s very well spoken. A good girl. Keep your head up
Everywhere I go around the world people are incredulous at America's gun culture. It is truly insane. So very sorry for this young woman and all who have suffered.
The is heartbreaking 😢
My heart hurts for them all! I'm so sorry for all of the victims and their families!
Very impressive young woman. How tragic.
so sad to think about how she potentially had to go through the msu shooting too.
wow what a powerful statement she is so so brave God be with you Kylie xx
Blessings to you on this journey to healing.
What an incredibly brave and strong young woman.
Please America wake up for gods sake wake for our kids !!! Ban all assault weapons , ban mass ammunition, ban guns !!!
This makes me so angry. No one should have to go thru this!!!! So much respect for her strength and resilience. And of course she’s going thru this for nothing - she and her classmates shouldn’t have been placed in a situation where a 15 year old kid had access to a gun. So 4 young lives were extinguished for nothing. And of course it keeps happening. Las Vegas was just a couple days ago……..
Unfortunately I think it will still be on especially if suicide is illegal
This Is So Sad.
i am SOBBING
This young woman is to be applauded for her bravery and confronting love her current afflictions and perseverance to move forward with her life.
She is so bright, articulate, strong and very brave. I don’t know what her future holds, but I pray it brings her the peace she deserves.
Poor sweetheart stay brave
Poor young lady, nobody deserves to go through this.
This monster should have got the Death Penalty & its should be implemented within a week of sentencing for the hurt this punk has caused. these families deserve this justice.
Give it to the parents who repeatedly ignored their child’s PLEAS for help. He was a kid with serious mental health issues, knew it and wanted and repeatedly asked for help, and instead his parents brought a gun into the house. Kids with severe mental illnesses aren’t monsters, their neglectful, selfish parents are.
You’re a part of the problem.
@@Free420Loveso you are justifying what he did?! You are indeed part of the problem! Mental health issues or not LOOK AT WHAT HE DID!! He did it!! How are you going to just blame it on his parents?! Are you kidding me?!
@@dianek1683
As God is my witness I blame Ethan's parents.
Lesson for parents, like James and Jennifer:
1. Do not have children.
2. If you DO have children you MUST raise the in a suppotive nurturing home.
3. If your child has mental health issues do not ignore them.
4. Practicing shooting-to-kill IS NOT wholesome family recreation.
5. Buying a military-grade weapon for your mentally deranged child as a Christmas gift may not be such a good idea.
6. Storing a loaded weapon in an unsecured location IS NOT responsible parenting.
7. If school personnel advise you to remove your child and take him for professional help, do not say "I'm too busy with work."
8. If you find out that the law is after you, do not flee 50 miles away and attempt to hide out in a warehouse.
9. Do not claim in court that "the system is to blame."
Brave girl. So sorry she had to endure this. 😢
WoW this young lady is amazing.,..❤
😮 praying for Kylie Ossege 🙏🙏
I'm just so sorry. 😔You're a fighter and you're very brave.❤
thank you kylie. rip hana. your testimony will prove strong and one day justice can fully be done.
She has actually survived 2 school shootings. There was one at her university, MSU, about a year or so after Oxford. 😢💔
You're so brave a young lady. Nothing will stop you in having a long and productive life.
Heartbreaking. Praying for all the victims and their families.
Gee Ethan Crumbley getting life in prison without the possibility of parole what an appropriare sentence.
Awful of what happened, strong women
OMG What a strong and resiliant young lady. God Bless her for telling the story of such a harrowing crime. xx
God bless you baby
Beautiful soul ❤❤❤❤
You can see the guy next to her get more angrier every word she says…he wanted blood
Wut
Kylie we love you!!! We need you!! We are happy to know you have chosen to focus on the good!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
U r an Amazing person this was so brave
May God bless you, Sweetheart. ❤
My prayers go out to all those he wounded and to all the families and loved ones of those who he killed. May God bless each of them with peace, strength, understanding, and joy. May they walk in faith and not fear. May God bless them all with the inter-healing and physical healing that they each stand in need of in Jesus' name.
I hope she’s one of the ones suing because if anyone deserves compensation for their pain and suffering its her! What she went through…listening to her friend dying right beside her and then almost dying yourself! I just can’t even imagine how much that has affected her life.
Who’s the guy standing with her?
My question is this. Why does no one care about the students pushed to this point? Maybe if people cared about the "screw" ups the bullied this would happen less often.
Talk to the parents. That’s LITERALLY why they are on trial. But none of this is because kids bullied Ethan. His parents absolutely FAILED to give him ANY support he needed.
It's is a good question. What can we take away from this tragedy to help recognize the warning signs in the future.
@@HereForTheComments990I hear what you're saying but I believe it's shortsighted to think this is solely the parents fault. The issues are far more complex then mediocre parenting.
@@cattoes1609in this case, NO. The kid very clearly stated in his notebook that he was deeply struggling with severe mental health issues, was actively in crisis, had repeated begged and pleaded for help, and his parents completely & utterly ignored him.
They cared more about their horses. His mother cared more about having an affair. This kid was in crisis, knew it, which doesn’t always happen, repeatedly asked for help, which also doesn’t happen very often in these extreme cases, and they failed him at every turn.
Not everyone is bullied. However, consistently, statistically, all roads lead back to some form of parental negligence or abuse in the majority of these mass shooting cases.
The people who want to keep guns in the hands of the demographic most responsible for these horrific shootings are the same people who REFUSE to pass funding to guarantee access to mental health services for these youth in crisis.
And then they point the finger at every & any other person & thing they can. Disgusting.
Is that her dad beside her? 🥺 poor sweet girl.
Sad 😢😭😭😭😭😭😭
God bless you ❤ you are strong woman and brave
Who’s the guy next to her?
It’s not her dad?
@@ExitLighthas to be her dad.
Such an amazing young lady❤
Can the coward be permanently be chained for life?
Who is the man next to her? Her dad?
That's Thor, her emotional support armed guard.
I'm wondering this as well? I could be wrong, but I was thinking it might be a B.A.C.A member, as the laws where I am from actually allow them to stand with victims like this in a court, for emotional and phycological support.
You sweet young women I love you you are sooo brave
Sad
Why is this only in one ear? I hate that my left ear can listen why can't my right? Totally don't want to listen due to it not being in both ears. With something this important it should be in both ears.
FYI to uploader people have two not one ears. Put the audio in both ears.
I can with my ear I think it’s ur problem dude…
He took away her passion.
this is not related to this video but her sniffing is soooo annoying but she’s such a brave survivor
Wake up Merica and do something about your gun issues.
We’ve been trying. Sadly, we’re not a democracy. We’re not even a republic. We’re a corporate oligarchy. And the NRA has a stranglehold on our government. The CDC tried to research gun violence in the 90s, but the NRA successfully lobbied not only to stop the research, but to cut funding to the CDC. There are THREE entities responsible for the OHS shooting: Ethan Crumbley, Crumbley Parents, and the NRA.
💔💔💔
Was the shooter targeting specific people or was it random?
Random
Tate's family is friends with some of my family so I know he was a really good kid. It's beyond a shame. Also, my mom works for a different family that lives in Oxford. Their youngest was a senior there & to make matters worse, she took a semester off cuz she had/has PTSD & then a couple weeks after she started college, there was a shooting there (Michigan or State, I'm too lazy to look it up).
Rest in peace to all the victims & rest in piss to the Crumbley family.
Why do people still even want to live in the USA after all of this
Who is the man beside her
Questionable "haircut". . .
Her mom doesn't care.
🙏🙏🙏
I have a fused spine, pain with the weather is real.
I continue to pray for God’s peace and comfort to guide you through the next chapter in your life. Your story is not over. 🙏❤️🙏
So sad to lose so much innocently at a young age - usually females have to get married to lose that much of their passions and interests.
Holy crap! If you read this as a transcript it probably reads like a WWI trench story
Who iz that guy on my left of her???
❤
👏❤️💪
I’m so sorry honey that you
Lost your dream. I have 2 show horses Bono my jumper and Stepping Out who I show in dressage. I got my first horse at 2. Horses are very therapeutic so little by little try to get back up and ride again. Your horse will be patient and wait for you until you’re ready. Sending you love and big hugs 🤗
It's a real life Michael Myers movie
Our world is wet with tears; no one escapes. Consider the children in Gaza!
Theres younger being shot at first grade to new born without a gun watching you pretend tears asbyour lieing taking a life also taking a life in the ad as you speak
