A lot of friends of the boys felt that Dylan Klebold was a follower, and think Eric Harris was the driving force. On the one hand, they’d known Klebold for years. OTOH, some of them had been friends with Klebold for over a decade, while Harris was the new guy. Who knows.
I do remember after a reading binge on Columbine that I thought Klebold’s parents did a better job by him than Harris’ did, but at this point specifics escape me. Giving the book proceeds for mental health issues is a nice gesture. Maybe the book will give her some closure.
I read the book Columbine, which described how criminologists believe Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold were a “criminal dyad”, with Harris a born psychopath and Klebold a depressant who followed Harris. After reading the book twice, I am persuaded by that theory. However, if anything, that theory makes Dylan Klebold an even more chilling character than Harris. A true psychopath like Harris is born bad-to-the-bone; Klebold, on the other hand, freely chose to follow along and to laugh as he and Harris shot their friends and schoolmates.
