(AP) — The mother of a 6-year-old who shot his teacher in a Virginia classroom is expected to plead guilty Tuesday to charges related to the attack, seven months after her son used her handgun to critically wound the educator. Deja Taylor, who was charged in April with felony child neglect and a misdemeanor count of reckless storing of a firearm, is scheduled to appear at a morning plea hearing in Newport News. The January shooting shocked the nation and roiled this shipbuilding city near the Chesapeake Bay.
