Donald Robin, Jr. says they ran out of time leading up to a potential school shooting in Rochester and Caston.

Robin, 18, Rochester, was charged with conspiracy to commit murder, a level 2 felony. Three additional criminal charges were dismissed as part of a plea agreement.

Robin was sentenced to eight years in Fulton Circuit Court in March.  He is serving his sentence in the Westville Correctional Facility.

Robin is testifying today in the case against the man prosecutors have called the co-conspirator in the case, John Schultz, 19.

Robin told the courtroom there were times he might have pulled out of the plan but the use of methamphetamine by he and Schultz helped to push them to continue.

Robin also answered questions from prosecutors about his concerns with safety in prison with other inmates aware he is testifying for the state in this case.

The prosecution concluded its questioning of Robin just before lunch.  The defense is expected to begin its questioning after the lunch break.
