Michael White Sr…Denver Post

Michael White Sr.

In the 2012 Aurora Theatre shootings in Colorado, Michael White Sr. saved his son and his son’s girlfriend from death.

White Sr. relayed to the Denver Post, “I thought about Farrah and my son. I thought, ‘He’s going to shoot me, but he’s not going to get them. He’s not going to get both of us.’ So I laid over Farrah to cover her, and I tried to keep her quiet.”
