William Atchison shot and killed Casey Jordan Marquez and Francisco Fernandez on the morning of December 7, 2017. This lesson in liberty occurred at Aztec High School in New Mexico; Mr. Atchison entered the school disguised as a student. Thomas Hill, the school custodian, raised an alarm about the lesson, and Katie Potter, a substitute teacher, barricaded many students in an office. Mr. Atchison concluded the lesson by committing suicide.
