Ramos Sr., 42, said at the site TheDailyBeast that it had been several hours since he had seen his son because it had left Uvalde for work. He added they did not meet during the pandemicbecause he didn’t want to risk his mother (who had cancer) getting the virus.
Because of this situation, the relationship between the two became strained and the 18-year-old stopped talking to her father about a month ago. Despite what happened, the man insisted that his son he is “a good man”.
“He was someone quiet who didn’t mess with anyone. People always harass him,” he explained, before stating that his son quit high school because of pambu-bully that he suffered because of the clothes he was wearing.
Other relatives maintain similar versions, explaining that the attacker received teasing the way he spokebecause he seemed to stutter.
