For twenty minutes, Spencer fired 36 shots, killing the school principal and the school's caretaker, as well as wounding eight students, aged 6 to 12 and a San Diego police officer. During the next six and a half hours, Brenda talked to the police and press, before finally surrendering. Explaining why she had done what she did, she said: "I just started shooting, that's it.
