James Eric Davis Jr.

In high school there were kids that I wouldn't be surprised to see them in the news or arrested for some reason. Many people could agree with me on this. James Eric Davis Jr was not one of those people I would have expected to see in the news for something bad. James was a quiet and polite person, and those who weren't great friends with him would tell you the same thing. James and I went to the same high school our senior year and graduated together. James' family lives down the street from me and when I heard about the shooting at Central Michigan University I didn't think anything of it. That was until I saw his face attached to one of the articles I was reading about the shooting. To say the least I was completely shocked. I got home that day and my mom had the news on when they started to talk about the shooting and that's when I told her that we went to high school together and they lived right down the street. When I told her she then told me that there had been cops in the neighborhood all day. Now we live in a neighborhood where nothing ever happens and cops are never around. Cop cars were there all day and night and when I woke up they were gone. I checked the news to see if they had found him and they did. I still cant believe what happened and most people who know James feel the same way.
