2005. It was Haley Mason’s, neé Maturi, freshman year at Lake Highlands High School, and she was on the third floor of the old Freshman Center for Ms. Chesal’s world geography class.
Sitting behind her was Brad Mason, a golf player. She’d gone to Northlake Elementary, he’d gone to Merriman Park. A Lake Highlands Junior High graduate and a former Forest Meadow Charger. He “just wasn’t very nice.”
