The interrogation room is gray and windowless. On the table, a detective has placed a rights waiver form. Across from him sits a sixteen-year-old boy who, hours earlier, shot a classmate in a high school bathroom. The victim is likely dead. The shooter's hands still carry gunshot residue. But when the detective asks what happened, the teenager's first real question is not about the boy he shot, or the family he devastated, or the life he just threw away. It's about YouTube.
