Has this ever resurfaced? I know it's been released but it's rare.

I never heard it, but would love to. For some reason I think Tom's 911 call wouldn't be as calm as Wayne Harris's seemed to be.

Didn't a dispatcher say "he's not a nice guy" well what the hell do you expect? He can't go into his house, his youngest son may be committing a crime, he can't go to the school... do you want him to be meek and mild?

I also wonder what time the call came in. I'm thinking of Sue's timeline too in AMR.

I've posted this on another thread but I figured it was relevant here too. The log of 911 calls that day. I found Wayne Harris's call but don't remember seeing Tom's. Maybe I just didn't scrutinize enough and it's right in front of my face!

No problem! I don't think I've ever heard a recording of Tom's call, is it floating around somewhere or is there a transcript? Interesting that both fathers called. I would like to compare what was said by them, I think it could be very telling.

I heard Tom's call and there was a link to it on tumblr but it's been deleted. I bet there is another copy floating around.

I agree. Under the circumstances the fact that Tom was still able to form coherent words would be amazing to me. I'm sure he had more pressing things on his mind then worrying about proper phone etiquette.

I had no idea all these tapes were available, another new thing to delve into!

Tape 4
12:40 -- Call about Dave Sanders shot in jaw and students hiding in science room [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.].
22:05 -- Another call on Dave Sanders. Bleeding from the mouth, conscious, weak pulse, and shot through shoulder.
42:00 -- Brooks gives Eric Harris's name and description, describes his interaction with Eric that AM. Also gives description of his car with the Rammstein sticker.

Tape 13
05:10 -- Dave Sanders' wife calls asking where he was taken, not at Swedish Hospital.
14:30 -- Call from Gary Lozow, the Klebold's attorney. Family wants to know if Dylan is in custody.
32:10 -- Man calls to say he saw 3-4 high school aged kids in long trench coats at Rampart Range a few weeks prior with "an arsenal of shotguns".
47:30 -- President Clinton calls with condolences

Tape 15
23:22 -- "Is Corey DePooter one of the victims?"

Tape 16
39:30 -- Warrant for Dylan's home has been signed and occupants have 15 minutes to gather their things and leave.

Tape 17
51:50 -- Linda Sanders calling again about her husband, she knows he was shot twice but doesn't know what hospital he is at (This is heartbreaking to hear). It was already about 8pm their time.
1:11:40 -- "So you can't tell me if my second cousin Corey DePooter is dead?", family can't find out if he is alive or not, still not releasing victim list

Tape 18
53:15 -- Dave Sanders' daughter calls saying her father is missing, he's not at any hospitals, dispatch can't give out any names (it is about 9pm at this point)
1:22:15 -- Admin from school calls about Dave Sanders. Knows he had two gunshot wounds, family cannot find him, all hospitals denied having him, dispatch still has no list

Tape 19
46:05 -- Woman calling on behalf of Richard Castaldo, cannot find his belongings

Tape 20
47:32 -- A kid named Lance Erickson (sp?) calls saying his sister Corinne was killed
1:02:10 -- Attorney for one of the suspect's families calls. (I think it's the Klebold's lawyer). Family has left their home and attorney wants to talk to someone covering the investigation

Tape 21
06:00 -- Tom Klebold calls, says they were kicked out of their home and his wife left her suitcase
11:50 -- Woman at dispatch relays Tom's message to an investigator, says he wants his suitcase "now" and that he's not a very friendly guy (who would be, under those circumstances?)

I still couldn't find Tom's call but I did hear the order that if they resisted a search they would be arrested. Standard protocol more than likely but it's sad to hear that when you also heard Sue's story of her, Tom and Byron mostly worried about Dylan's safety and not understanding what is going on. Then realizing Dylan was responsible and mourning Dylan and comprehending what he did.

The police were expecting to go to a different situation than a grieving family. Eerily different than the Harris's. Though I still don't believe his parents knew what he was doing, I do think they had more of an idea of Eric's issues.

Still trying to listen to as much as I can and I will keep updating with time stamps!

Didn't Sue say the police went with her while she was packing to make sure she didn't hurt herself? So, so sad thinking about what was happening during all of these calls behind the scenes.

She did yes!

There was also a call from someone from Florida saying it was Hitlers birthday and someone in a Denver chatroom said it would happen today. Little did this dude know that they originally planned for the 19th.

I remember watching the news live and hearing there were 4 men in ski masks with automatic riffles, 20 somethings that graduated, hostage situations.. then they flashed Eric and Dylan on the screen... the rest is history.

I have to go make dinner or I will be eating at midnight LOL.

I listened to several of the tapes and still have not been able to find Tom Klebold's call. I updated my post above with interesting things that I heard. I did find the recording where their attorney called to see if Dylan was in custody.

It's mostly concerned citizens and media calling in for info, along with offers of help and information that may be useful.

I didn't know about the Rampart Range call. In the actual video one of the 2 older guys says "this is what happens when you let High Schoolers play with guns" It ticks me off honestly, then Mark Manes said he thought they were older.. he knew. He and Philip supposedly said how much E and D made them uneasy with their shooting.. I am paraphrasing.


That is sad about Linda and Corey's families Sad By then all of the survivors were out and being treated. I hate thinking of them being in that school all night and Rachel and Danny were outside Sad

When I compare the call logs with the tapes themselves, you can tell certain parts have been removed regarding victims and victim lists. There are MULTIPLE mentions of Mrs. Sanders calling throughout the day. At one point, a worker from Swedish calls on her behalf because no one is getting back to her. My heart shattered listening to her frustration and slowly diminishing hope.

He could have been saved, out of everyone that died that day, if he had gotten proper medical attention Sad after saving so many people too. One of the kids that was helping him killed himself I think too?

The worst part is, the people in the dispatch center can't tell her anything. I don't think they were withholding info, they genuinely did not know what was going on or how to help her. At one point they ask for an update because they were starting to learn things from members of the press that were calling in.

...still looking for a call from Tom Klebold. Let me know if anyone else gets to it first.

In that situation I believe I would likely end up in handcuffs myself. There is NO way I could just call and call about my kids or my husband and keep getting nothing.

I'd be at that school regardless of what anyone said.

I think some families were still at home and some went to a recreation center or a church or something like that?

I found Tom's call but it's very brief, seems like most of it was cut off. I updated the notes in my original post but I'll repeat it here-

Tape 21
About 06:00 Tom calls regarding Sue's suitcase left at the home
About 11:50 Woman at dispatch says he is "not a friendly guy" when relaying his message to one of the LE members

Thank you!!

Tom Klebold sounds completely calm and polite on the phone, considering everything going on.

The dispatchers sound SUPER unprofessional, I assume because he is the suspects father, already the family is getting hate and very little sympathy from the community.

I agree with you! I think the attitude of the dispatcher and deputy speaks to the general attitude that many in the community had towards the Klebolds and Harris's. No wonder they felt the way they did...everyone besides the people that knew them were against them from that day forward.

Tom was calm in the part of the call that was released, but who knows if there is more we didn't hear where he is rude or short with her. Still, put yourself in his shoes and tell me if you wouldn't be terribly friendly.

I would completely give Tom a pass for yelling and screaming if he did.

It's took a lot of courage for both of them to stay in Littleton.

People who didn't know them probably assumed they were awful parents who were angry and abusive, they didn't realize they were going into such a loving home two people who saw their son was hurt not the perpetrator.

I would really like to hear more of his call with dispatch but I am guessing it hasn't all been released? Are there transcripts at least?

I think Wayne Harris's "we feel victimized too" in his journal about Eric was strangely prophetic.

I haven't seen any transcripts of the fall call.

For a while it seems like the Browns had a vendetta against the Harris family. They're also very private family so I imagine it had to have been very uncomfortable. Plus to be honest I get the vibe that Eric abd the family were never accepted because they didn't grow up in Littleton like Dylan. However come to think about it didn't Wayne or Kathy grow up in the area and that's why they moved?

Tape 21 with Tom's Call was at 23:41:15 - that was 11:41 pm that night. He was exhausted!

I believe they came back to CO because at least one of them was from the area. A lot of their neighbors said the family was quiet and kept to themselves. This is in contrast to Sue who tried to be active in the community.

I agree that the Browns favored blaming Eric over Dylan. I think Judy was a bit biased because she and Sue were somewhat close or at least used to be.

I think later the Browns and the Klebolds had a falling out too.

I'm still irked by Judy coming by on 4/20 to talk about Eric's website.

Imagine being Sue that afternoon and hearing Judy go off about how she told the police about it a year ago. I'd be like "Why didn't you tell me? Why are you here right now?!"

Same here, and I THINK Sue said something to the affect as well in AMR.

Judy assumed when they got in trouble it was for the site and the rebel missions, but really if it was JUST for the site, Dylan had nothing to do with that. You'd think with Judy being the freaking gossipy busy body in Littleton would have discovered the van break in and spoke to Sue. No, you pick when children are being shot at to tell Sue... ugh.

Exactly, if Dylan had been the one to bring the site to their attention why would he be in trouble? Because it wasn't Dylan. It was Aaron. And E&D had broken into a van together by that point.

I sincerely believe Judy was trying to do the right thing and protect her son, but she knew Dylan and Eric were close...why didn't she say ANYTHING to Sue over the course of that year? You don't get to blame the police up and down without also admitting you dropped the ball a little.

At the very least Sue could have spoken to Dylan more and at least have had more information on Eric and the goings on.

I don't recall if it was Sue who suggested to keep them apart for a while but Kathy said she didn't like that idea. It was in AMR

I think you're right. Sue wanted Dylan to spend more time with his other friends. Kathy thought it was good for Eric to be around Dylan, and didn't want them kept apart as Sue suggested.

I've always wanted to know if Sue and Kathy ever sat down and talked, one devastated mom to another after Columbine.

They would be the only ones who would truly understand what the other might be feeling and going through.

I wondered too. They must have spoken at least a few times.

What a lonely, lonely feeling.
