A Virginia judge dismissed criminal charges against Ebony Parker, the former assistant principal accused of ignoring warnings before a 6-year-old child shot a teacher, after the defense argued the prosecution had not made its case.

"If [Parker's actions] are meant to amount to a crime, the legislature will need to codify it," Circuit Court Judge Rebecca Robinson said Thursday.
