1. SOUNDBITE (English) Nicole Beausoleil, Madisyn Baldwin’s mother:
“On November 30th, 2021, is a day that has forever changed my life. It burns into my body like a cigarette burn. Enough to scar, but always a constant reminder. The day I found out that my daughter's life was taken. A life that was still so young and full of life. After that day, she became a statistic, a victim, a planned act of tragedy.”

2. SOUNDBITE (English) Nicole Beausoleil, Madisyn Baldwin’s mother:
“To the waste that took my daughter's life: That name will never come out of my mouth. That life will cease to exist to me. And just like trash, it will be forgotten. So, while the attention that he has been seeking for this horrendous crime, you will get no reaction from me. But again, this is the life he chose. If he really wanted to make a different outcome, he wouldn't continue to make the excuses he does now. The suffering will come when he least expects it. The regret will consume you as you sit alone with the only voices in your head. Guilt would eat away at your soul. This might not happen tomorrow, next year or 10 years. But it will happen. As you get older, you realize the path you've chosen and it will haunt you.”
STORYLINE:
The mother of one of the four students killed at Michigan Oxford’s High School says her daughter “became a statistic” that day in 2021.

Nicole Beausoleil was the first to deliver a victim impact statement during a sentencing hearing Friday for the shooter.

Ethan Crumbley could be sentenced to life in prison.

Beausoleil called Crumbley “trash” and predicted the shooting would “haunt” him.

The 17-year-old pleaded guilty to all 24 charges in the shooting, including murder and terrorism. The shooter killed Beausoleil’s daughter, Madisyn Baldwin, as well as Tate Myre, Hana St. Juliana and Justin Shilling at the school in Oxford Township, about 40 miles (60 kilometers) north of Detroit. Six other students and a teacher also were wounded.
