Devon Adams, who was a friend of Rachel and Dylan, was in the sound booth with him when it happened. She said Dylan rescued Rachel's performance. 'He was freakin' out,' she said. 'He's going, 'Stupid tape!' Rachel kept going, and he tried his best to get it back up. It was just a bad tape. He got it to work better than it had been. He adjusted the levels a little bit and it came out okay.' Devon said Rachel was 'a wreck' after that performance but that she thanked Dylan for fixing the tape.
Three weeks before Rachel Joy Scott, 17, was gunned down the first victim of the Columbine High School massacre she saw Austin Wiggins changing a flat tire in the rain in her town of Littleton, Colo. Scott stopped her car, got out and held an umbrella over Wiggins' head. Today, he waters her grave every day. It is the only patch of green in the area of the cemetery where she is buried. A week before she died, Scott had promised to take Adam, a student with a bone structure deficiency, to lunch and ask him all about his family. Every day, Scott would offer Adam a hug and a few kind words. The other students teased him and called him "alien" because of his facial disfigurement. Today. Adam cries almost nightly for the loss of his friend.
It was not until late the following morning, April 21st, that the coroner was permitted to move the bodies of Rachel Scott and Daniel Rohrbough into the school from where they lay outside it.
Scott recalled how Rachel approached Columbine student Adam Kyler after other students knocked books out of his hands. Rachel offered Kyler her support. 'Adam told us Rachel prevented him from taking his own life,' Scott said.
Just days after the Columbine shooting, the Scott family met Adam Kyler, a school friend of Rachel's. Kyler told the family he had been teased his entire life – his nickname at the school was 'Alien,' Scott said. She said Kyler has a disorder that has disfigured his facial muscles. 'He told us that Rachel reached out to him every day by either saying something nice, hugging or smiling at him,' she said. 'He just started to cry as he told us his story. No one had ever done that for him before.' Kyler told us Rachel's random acts were the highlight of his day, she said. 'It is so powerful because he said he had thought about killing himself,' Scott said. 'But Rachel's little bit of interaction made life worth living, he thought.'
