Incidents

During the 1997-1998 school year, The Killian Nine were a group of high school students at Miami Killian High School who, on February 23, 1998, made a satirical pamphlet called "First Amendment" and passed it out to fellow students. The pamphlet contained poems, essays, cartoons, and writings, several of which were deemed objectionable by the school administration. Included were a drawing of a dart through the head of the school's principal, Timothy Dawson. The pamphlet also contained the statement, "I often have wondered what would happen if I shot Dawson in the head and other teachers who have pissed me off." Dawson claimed that he feared for his life in response to the pamphlet. Once school authorities discovered the identities of the Killian Nine, the students were pulled from their classes one by one and threatened with arrest. After the students each gave a written statement, the school security handcuffed them and had them arrested.^[6]

On November 19, 2002, 16 year old Killian student Karen Urbina was beaten to death with a baseball bat along with her 18 year old boyfriend Justin Morejon by his 17 year old cousin Jonathon Nodal who was later charged with 2 counts of 1st degree murder and sentenced to life in prison in 2012.^[7]^[8]

On March 31, 2015 Sophomore defensive end DeAndre Johnson, 15, was stabbed by a 17-year-old female senior with a kitchen knife. She was later charged with felony attempted murder and possession of a weapon on school grounds, according to a district spokeswoman. The school was placed on lockdown following the incident.^[9]

On March 8, 2018, 5 female students were arrested for assaulting a female freshman in the cafeteria that was recorded and shared on social media. The five students involved were charged with battery and disruption of a school environment.^[10]

On April 13, 2018, 17 year old Angel Lopez was killed while riding his bicycle from the school after being struck by a Florida Highway Patrol trooper while he was attempting to cross Killian Parkway near 107th Avenue on his bicycle.^[11]

On February 5, 2018, two former Miami Killian students Adrian Abanto and Abraham Pedilla were accused and charged with burglarizing the school.^[12]
