McInerney-King Trial Testimony: If You Can't Fit In, Learn How To Dodge Bullets

The trial of Brandon McInerney, who killed 15-year-old gay high-schooler Lawrence King in 2008, is well underway. This week, testimony from teachers has provided surprising background not just on the incident, but on King's life and the prevalent culture at E.O. Green Junior High School in Oxnard, CA.

"He desperately wanted to be liked but didn't have the social skills to get along with his peers," special-ed teacher Susan Crowley said about King. "He often said things that were one note off the mark."
