According an ABC 7 report from last month, “A Loudoun County Public School student who was caught carrying a gun in May 2023 and allegedly threatened to kill a fellow Blue Ridge Middle School student is now attending Loudoun Valley High School.”
The teen was arrested after the May 2023 incident when he was found carrying a gun when his belongings were searched because he threatened to kill a fellow middle school student.
7News asked all nine Loudoun County School Board members, “Are you comfortable with a student attending Loudoun Valley High School this school year who previously threatened to kill a fellow student and was arrested for carrying a gun?” and “What are you doing as a school board member to keep students safe from violence, gun violence, and gang activity at Loudoun Valley High School and other schools?”
The board failed to respond to the questions, but Loudoun County Sheriff Mike Chapman provided an answer.
“I’m aware of your concern in this particular person,” he said. “We’re doing everything we can within our power to monitor what’s going on to work within the system, to make sure that everybody that needs to know about this knows about it, and that we’re keeping good track on this. We’re doing everything, I think, that we [can] possibly do under the circumstances. Our job is to keep people safe and we really take that to heart and we do everything we can in our power to make sure we’re delivering the best service that we possibly can.”
On Tuesday, angry parents voiced their frustrations with the board for allowing a potentially violent illegal alien to go to school alongside their children.
“A known gang member with a criminal record who was suspended from LCPS was allowed back in school,” stated one upset father.
A mother added: “Where’s the protection and the safety for our children who are in school with other children who have [made] known threats, who have been arrested, and who are back in the school, and my daughter is terrified to go to school with him?”
Every time a parent spoke about the dangerous student, Mansfield cut them off and warned they were breaking school board policies.
When Mansfield ended the meeting early because she was mad at the parents for voicing their concerns, the locals became extremely upset, shouting, “You want to violate their First Amendment and stop your constituents from speaking!”
“When we come to speak, and we come to speak for the protection of the students and the teachers, we should be listened to and not be silenced,” said another person in attendance.

The Biden-Harris administration’s open-border policies are putting American lives in danger, including those attending U.S. public schools.
