The mother of a 6-year-old who shot his first-grade teacher in a Virginia
classroom was sentenced on Wednesday to one year and nine months in prison after
pleading guilty in June to using marijuana while owning a firearm and making
false statements about drug use.

The sentencing of the 26-year-old mother, Deja Taylor, was the latest
development in a shooting that shocked the country in January when the
authorities detailed how a child had retrieved a gun from his home, put it in
his backpack and brought it to Richneck Elementary School in Newport News, Va.

There, the authorities said, the boy pulled out the gun in a classroom, aimed it
at his teacher, Abigail Zwerner, and fired. The bullet passed through her hand
and struck her chest, causing serious injuries.
