SEATTLE, Washington – At the trial of Naveed Haq, the accused Jewish Center shooter, we got a glimpse of Dayna Klein’s “heroic” ability to composure herself under pressure. She repeatedly fought back emotion during a clear and compelling account of the events of that terrifying day. Klein, who was pregnant at the time, recalled how she was shot in the arm and leg, and then dragged herself across her office floor to call 911. She stayed on the phone even though she knew the gunman had threatened to kill anyone who did so. Klein also described the horrifying moments as she left the building. Police officers told her “Don’t look,” but she did anyhow, and saw her friend Pamela Waechter lying face-up on the steps, shot in the head. “I asked the officers if I could please stay with Pam so that she wouldn’t have to be by herself until she was identified,” said Klein, sobbing on the stand. They did not allow her to. – In Session staff Filed under: Jewish Center shooting • Trials |
