PSYCHOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF THE AQBIGAIL ZWERNER SHOOTING CASE: A FOCUS ON THE CHILD’S MENTAL STATE AND CONTRIBUTING FACTORS

The shooting of Abigail Zwerner, a first-grade teacher at Richneck Elementary School in Newport News, Virginia, on January 6, 2023, stands as a harrowing example of youth violence intersecting with systemic failures in school safety and mental health intervention. While the term “psychological autopsy” traditionally refers to a retrospective reconstruction of a deceased individual’s mental state—often in cases of suicide or equivocal death—it is not directly applicable here, as no fatalities occurred.
