Columbine Killer Mom Feels ‘Huge’ Guilt

Sue Klebold says she feels “huge” guilt and much “self-loathing” when she thinks of her 17-year-old son Dylan’s fatal actions at Columbine High School. The remarks were made to The Guardian in Klebold’s first interview since the 1999 school massacre in Colorado, in which Dylan Klebold and his friend shot and killed 13 people at Columbine High School. “You go back over every conversation, every gift, every moment, and what you feel is self-loathing,” she told The Guardian. “I let this happen; it was my role to keep him safe, and to keep others safe, too, and somehow this happened because of me, because I wasn’t able to stop it. The guilt one feels doesn’t fit in a room, it’s so huge.”
