LA LOCHE, Sask. -- A 17-year-old boy accused of shooting four people to death in a remote Saskatchewan community described himself as an "outcast" at home and victim of bullying at school, say his friends.
The teen, who made his first court appearance Monday, was known to hold his emotions inside and rarely spoke, even when hanging out with his high school buddies in La Loche.

"He was the black sheep of the family," said Noel Desjarlais-Thomas, who described the accused as one of several friends who always hung out together.

The 16-year-old said the teen suspect would message the others in his circle of friends about not being treated equally or fairly by his family.

"He just said he was going to do something. He never really said much after that," Desjarlais-Thomas said Monday.
