Annunciation School shooting parent speaks out: 'My son lost his best friend'

Kacie Sharpe, whose son was sitting near Fletcher Merkel when he was fatally shot while attending mass at the Annunciation Catholic Church, stood outside the building on Wednesday during Vice President JD Vance's visit. She said, “We do not need these weapons to protect ourselves. We do not need these weapons to hunt. We do not need them. They're for the military. …. This is not OK. …. This is a political problem. Something has to be done. My son lost his best friend in the world because these politicians won't do anything." Sharpe said they feel “hopeless” that something will be done to prevent similar shootings in the future. “We need something to be done.” Sharpe said an armed guard or armed teachers would not have prevented the Annunciation shooting from happening. She added her son misses his best friend and Fletcher was a great child.
