Ludmila S. Yevsukov, a relative of the younger student, said McKenzie-Gude made a sharp impression when she first met him -- he was confident and friendly and ended many sentences with "ma'am."

"It's like he was a little adult," Yevsukov said. "He is not a kid at all. He is completely full-formed."

In time, she said, McKenzie-Gude came to hold an outsize influence over the younger student, who she said was not as outgoing as the older boy. "He just became totally focused on Collin," Yevsukov said.

At McKenzie-Gude's home, police said they found a list of home addresses for St. John's teachers. "Some of those names were highlighted," Feeney said at the bond hearing.

Police also found "kind of a to-do list of items to be bought by October of 2008," Feeney said. The list included "equipment to convert semiautomatic rifles to fully automatic rifles," he said. The list also called for "range-finding glasses that typically are used by a sniper team."
