into the audi10rium and announced that someone was in the Commons area with a gun. He
peeked into the cafeterill and saw that the kids bad ducked under the tables and that a janitor
was in the corner instIUCting the kids to get down.
He temembered seeing a gun outside throw something into the senior parking lot. He

down a ballway toward the front of the building when he was aware that a gunman was
shooting down the hallway. He did not see this gunman. The group of kids he was with
then ran out the upper left doors of the auditorium and into the parking lot and to safety.
He left his backpack, his guitar and music in the auditorium on the stage. He was wearing
jeans, a green sweater and "Duck Martin" shoes (black dress shoes).
When asked if be used the Internet, he replied that he would occasionally look something up
and the last time he used a chat line was a year ago.
When asked if he knew anyone with a double pierced eyebrow. he stated that Brendan
RISBECK, a senior and a single pierced brown hole that has a last horse-shoe in it.
RISBECK is a varstty football player for the school.
I spoke briefly with Jacob's father who related that Jacob called bim from the nearby library
at 1:39 a.m. on that morning to tell them that he was safe. He also stated that he has
recently adopted lacob and is in the process of changing his name from Jacob VARELA or

Narrative:
On 5·7·99 I spoke with Hulse whotold me that he knewboth Harris and Klebold but knew Harris much
better and used to play the game "Doom" with Harris on their computers thru a bulletin board or chatroom
called "Enter Net"or "Mystical Realm" run by "Todd" phone 415·1895. Hulse confirmed that his screen
name is "Jlrnbo", He began playing andtalking on line with Harris around the end of Hulse's freshman year
and did so until Harris and Klebold "got into the trenchaoat thing" in their junior year (note: Hulse is oneyear
behind Harris and Klebold in school). Hulse knows the gameDoom and confirmed that you can develop
your own plans or blueprints In the game and remembers Harris talking in the bulletin board aboutwanting
to develop the plansfor Columbine HS for a game. Hulseneversaw any Doom plans for CHS. Harris also
went by a screen name"rebel doomer". Most of the time when Harris and Klebold were playing on line they
were at Harris' residence.
Hulse further advised that although he did get along with Harris (dUring their gaming days), he never got
along with Klebold and in fact Klebold hated Hulse. Hulse was in an independent studies class with Klebold
but was never allowed nearthe schools computers (due to a past hacking incident) and Hulse was always
given the computer assignments which very much upset Klebold.
At the lime of the incidenton 4·20·99 Hulse was in the photo room and didn't know anything was occurring
until he heard the fire alarm at around 1125 hrs • 1300hrs and exited the school thru the north doorin the
classroom and wentto the tennis courts. He neverheard any shooting or explosions.
Hulse concluded by saying that there is a common term used in bulletin boards or chatrooms. It is H-P·Y·
C·A recognized as being Hacking, Phreaking, Virus (or Yiril), Carding and Anarchy. These describe various
different criminal activities. Hulse has witnessed Harris occasionally usesome of these terms but could
remember nothing specific.
