Second student in last 9 days arrested for bringing loaded gun to same Cobb high school

For the second time in just as many weeks, security at a Cobb County high school prevented what could have been a tragedy.

Student Denim Boiner is currently in jail after police say he had a gun in his backpack at Osborne High School.

Boiner is the second student accused of bringing a gun to the campus over the last 9 days.

“As a parent, as a mom, my first reaction is sadness. Sadness because of what I know, what it could have been. We definitely do not want it to escalate to any school shootings,” Zanetia Henry told Channel 2 Cobb County Bureau Chief Michele Newell.

Henry lost her son to gun violence, and now she is a violence reduction coordinator, visiting schools in Cobb County.

“The national student pledge against gun violence is what we bring into the school,” Henry said.

“I will never bring a gun to school,” is the first sentence of the pledge students read.

“Help students think about their actions before picking those handguns up,” Henry said.
