In his interview with People, Deputy Weaver credited his medical experience from the four years he spent serving in the U.S. Air Force. "My training and instincts kicked in and the care came naturally," he said. "I’m a calm person when it comes to intense situations like these."
The school resource officer also noted that he still sees the mother when she drops her older daughter off for school. Sometimes, he has the opportunity to speak with her and Cheyanne.
"On occasion, she will bring Cheyanne in to say hello and I’m able to hold her," he explained. Cheyanne’s sister is also enrolled in the school I cover, so I see her every morning at drop-off and she gives me the biggest hug!"
