Read this two-page story on Ronnie D. McMillian, 27, of New Jersey to see the type of hand-holding he’s getting. Mom even showed up in court -oh and he showed up in flip flops.

Business Insider, December 16: “The next classroom down the hall was Victoria Soto’s. Soto hid all of her students in the closet and remained in the classroom to talk to Lanza.
