Emily Keyes

This zine is dedicated to Emily Keyes, a victim in the Baily CO school shooting. Keyes was killed by suspected gunman Duane Morrison on September 27th, 2006. Morrison shot her when a SWAT team raided the classroom where he was holding 6 high school girls (including Keyes) hostage. Morrison later shot and killed himself.

Park County authorities set up a tip line, for anyone with information about the attack. The line still works. If you have more information, please call police at 303-816-5947.
