Colorado schools reopen as FBI examines teen suspect's past
Authorities want to ensure a Florida teenager obsessed with the Columbine school shooting was acting alone as dozens of Denver-area schools plan to reopen following a region-wide hunt for the young woman.
According to the FBI, the body of Sol Pais was discovered in the mountains outside Denver with what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound Wednesday, about 24 hours after Columbine and other schools locked their doors in response to fears she intended to carry out her own attack.
