Bennett said that Copney, Aquino, and Blayn “Bliz” Jiggetts, 19, arrived at Harvard from New York on May 18. Armed with a 9 mm handgun, they met Cosby in Kirkland??s basement to steal $1,000 in drug money. Jiggetts then handed the gun to Copney, who shot Cosby after a struggle, Bennett said...
...What happened on Monday was a tragedy; we should all mourn the loss of 21-year-old Justin Cosby, who died yesterday at Beth Israel Hospital of the gunshot wound he received in the basement of Kirkland??s J entryway.

Not only is the library unique for possessing 10 small study rooms lining two winding staircases, but it is also a standing monument to Harvard history. Sketches and photographs of Harvard presidents from Eliot to Conant hang in one study room. An original sketch of Walden Pond by Thoreau’s hand hangs on the wall of another. The photographs of all of Kirkland??s past House...
