My sincere condolences to this poor girl and all who are affected by this tragedy……
Sharing that story so sad💔
I agree with you Stewie
🙏🏻
Holy hell was she so brave in that moment of insanity around her…. Caring so much for her co workers that she stayed with them instead of running. People she barely knew but had made a friendship with at work in a couple days before the big day Friday. I hope she gets to see the families of those girls and they can hug her. What a way to spend your holidays…
That has to be one of the most horrifying testimonials I’ve ever seen. I think it was too soon for that interview. I got the sense that she had no one around to support her and that disturbs me profoundly. I hope she gets the support she needs very quickly.
I cried like baby. Just like when I heard the 911 call from the little girl in Uvalde.
CNN don’t care.
They could use this tragedy to score a quick political point, so screw this lady. Full send
I understand what you’re saying, but it needs to be heard She is humanizing the experience and triggering our empathy . As American society is almost becoming numb to mass shootings. It’s dreadful. She is really traumatized.
She has a baby too. That’s too much for one person. She needs help! Walmart needs to send her a counselor asap!!
Completely and utterly agree.
Oh dear. 💔 survivors guilt is real. I hope this girl gets an amazing counselor to help her through this. My heart goes out to everyone involved in this nightmare.
I wouldnt mind donating 5 dollars so hopefully we all can change her life
yah. it’s not offten you can see the survivors guilt this clearly… god i wish i could do something, anything to help…
@Lewis Williams
Yeah
And you can tell it failed, no?
And Walmart pays for it
Walmart had better get them counseling. Of course they won’t. But I hope there will be some legal recourse when Walmart fails to assist these employees in processing this tragedy.
This girl is so brave, my heart breaks for her and what she saw.
*LET’S GO BRANDON!!*
@NPC FREDO omg you guys still think that’s funny to say? How incredibly sad bro.
I can say I know how she feels. I am 1 and the first time I saw someone get shot was when I was 9 years old.
Oh, Jessie, my heart breaks for you. You are so brave. Please get some grief counseling, darling. This world needs good people like you.
Jessie and other survivors should not be alone. This interview highlights the necessity of immediate and ongoing post-traumatic support, as well as economic support for survivors who will be unable to return to work.
Walmart don’t care. They treat employees badly there. I know this from personal experience and from friends from the last 20 years. Walmart only wants to get out of all responsibility and not spend money on people in her position. They will most likely find a way to get the employees in her position out and hire in new ones that don’t know anything about the shooting or didn’t experience it.
i saw that to. that she was alone in that room. she needs suport right now…
Was going to say this as well. She better not have been left alone after this deeply and profoundly exhausting retelling of done of what she has endured. And an infant baby at home…..? She is an angel.
SO AGREE!!!!!!
Exactly! thank you
I hope they ALL get therapy for FREE! This is insane. This girl is beyond traumatized. Poor girl
That was one of the saddest survivor interviews I’ve ever seen.
It was a long 9 minutes
The way she describes the sound of the blood dripping is so sobering and haunting to say the least
I’ve never heard the word “rhythm” used to describe the sound of the droplets and it was really impactful. For there to be so much blood that it made sound is just unimaginable and horrific. Poor girl.
*YOU SHOULD DROP THAT BEAT YO!!*
@NPC FREDO What are you talking about? The fact that you cannot allow yourself to feel emotion?
@kittiecorner Exactly. Some people have to act out to distract from grief so they won’t feel it
I wasn’t sure if I should say what you wrote, but did so in vague terms. BECAUSE it was something I have NEVER HEARD SOMEONE DESCRIBE whose been thru a mass shooting and alive. When she first describe it, the sound, I thought she meant bullets. BUT…when suddenly she said it was blood dripping that’s what gutted me!!!!! Gosh it is GUT WRENCHING and HAUNTING for us, to hear, I CAN’T IMAGINE ALL the more, it is for her!!!!!! I SO hope that some organization would create a fund for her & her child. She is GONNA need A LOT of support not just now, but in the months to come.
I hope this lady is getting counseling she is very very distraught. My heart goes out to her and all the victims.
Hopefully she gets help. She have Survivor’s Guilt
You think? She was already a tweaker before Walmart . 😅
I can’t even put into words how I felt hearing her testimony my heart goes out for her I pray that Walmart gets her all the counseling that she needs she had an angel in her corner I hope they start a GoFundMe page for her
My heart goes out to her and all of those affected. 💔
This interview feels too soon and I am so sorry for her. Rest in peace to her colleagues and condolences to their loved ones. I have written words like this a lot this week. This country must change!
Agreed, however this interview is going to be the catalyst for a lot of support pouring in for her God willing, so she can focus on healing and raising her son in the years ahead. Rest in peace to her colleagues 🙏
God bless this woman and all the people who’ve ever gone through something so traumatic
My lord this woman gave the most gut wrenching remarks I’ve ever heard after a tragedy. I pray Walmart does right by Jessie and gets her the help she’s going to need to move forward. Brave and so very vulnerable right now. My prayers to you Jessie.

Oh gosh, this is so traumatizing for this young lady. How extremely brave. This reporter is feeling this so deeply, you can see it in her face. I so hope Jessie gets the help she so needs. Everyone who has a need I hope they get the help they need. Prayers for the families and everyone else affected by this senseless violence. My heart is just hurting for them all.
Jessie is too kind for this world. May she get the support she needs to heal and raise a happy healthy baby.
OMG Please somebody make sure Jessie gets therapy. This is the most gut wrenching interview I’ve ever seen. Hugs and so much love to Jessie
Jessie needs immediate help. I hope someone is helping her get connected with the right people both for her and her babies sake. I’m sorry this happened to you Jessie. I am wishing you all the best in this life.
