Nashville Trans Shooter Plotted Attack for Years, Was Obsessed with Other School Shooters

I'm starting to think that maybe treating juvenile mental illness with powerful exogenous hormones and telling kids they were "born in the wrong body" isn't as medically effective as our "experts" believe.

Nashville police have released their final report on the Covenant School massacre -- a targeted March 2023 attack on a Christian school by a transgender shooter who killed three third-graders and three adults.

Rather than a highly anticipated manifesto, the report found that killer Audrey Hale left behind numerous notebooks, art books and computer documents about her plans to commit the attack and gain notoriety, partly inspired by the Columbine school shooting in 1999.

Hale, the 28-year-old attacker and biological female, began "fantasizing" about and researching mass shootings as far back as 2017, according to investigators. A year later, she wrote "detailed fantasies" about shooting up the Isaac T. Creswell Middle Magnet School for the Arts, killing her father and killing her psychiatrist.

"In this case, a manifesto didn't exist," the document reads. "Hale never left behind a single document explaining why she committed the attack, why she specifically targeted The Covenant, and what she hoped to gain, if anything, with the attack."

Instead, her motivations were scattered across those many notebooks and other writings, investigators found. They included an image showing more than two-dozen notebooks seized from Hale's car and bedroom. They also said she left a suicide note addressed to her parents.

Read the Nashville police report:

"In short, the motive determined over the course of the investigation was notoriety," according to investigators. "Even though numerous disappointments in relationships, career aspirations, and independence fueled her depression, and even though this depression made her highly suicidal, this doesn't explain the attack. As Hale wrote on several occasions, if suicide was her goal then she would have simply killed herself."

Oh, I see, you're babbling inanities because this is a cover-up. I'm sorry, my mistake, I thought you were professional police investigators who would tell us the truth.

Hale wanted people to remember her after her death, according to the document, and was partly inspired by books and documentaries on the Columbine killers. She wanted similar records of her own life and expected her guns, artwork and journals to be preserved in museums around the world.

"Most disturbingly, she wanted the things she left behind to be shared with the world so she could inspire and teach others who were 'mentally disordered' like her to plan and commit an attack of their own," investigators wrote.

Because of Hale's consistent diaries over a period of years, police said they were able to collect far more information about her than in a typical investigation. They found no evidence of accomplices and said she wanted to prove her "superiority."

The Covenant School was attached to a church that Hale once attended, and she chose the target because of her connection to it, because children wouldn't put up a fight, and because she wanted to obtain infamy, according to police.

I'm noticing a distinct lack of reference to her belief that Christians persecuted her because of her trans delusions.

Her biggest fear in the attack, at 5 feet, 2 inches tall and 120 pounds, was running into a "hero" who could physically overpower her and force her to be captured alive.

So she settled on an elementary school that she described as the setting for her "happiest" childhood memories.

"She never remarked of being bullied and ostracized there; on the contrary, she remarked on a couple of occasions how she established friendships, which included play-dates at the homes of other children and a sense of acceptance," police revealed. "She gave no examples of how anyone at the school belittled her or harmed her, as she did in other places she attended school. Because of this, Hale felt The Covenant was the perfect place to commit an attack, as it was the perfect setting for her death."

The person who posted noted that said the BBC had shut down comments on the post so you have to imagine that this crime wasn't perpetrated by the BBC's Favored Criminals.

Related, as far as leftist criminal pathology: Another Tesla firebomber has been arrested.

A man accused of firebombing a Tesla dealership in Colorado is facing federal charges, Attorney General Pam Bondi said Monday.

Cooper Jo Fredrick, 24, was arrested in Plano, Texas, on suspicion of attacking a Tesla dealership on March 7 in Loveland, Colo., Bondi said.

"Let this be a warning. You can run, but you cannot hide," Bondi said in a video message. "Justice is coming."

Frederick, a resident of Fort Collins, Colo., allegedly ignited an incendiary device and hurled it at the dealership, narrowly missing several parked vehicles. The device landed between two cars, and created a fire, Loveland police said.

This Trantifa Auxiliary looks much as you'd expect.

Frederick was arrested a week after the attack. Federal prosecutors are seeking 20 years in prison, Bondi said.

In addition to the federal charges against him, Frederick is also facing local charges, including second-degree arson and possession of explosives or incendiary devices.

...

Lucy Grace Nelson, 42, also known as Justin Thomas Nelson, is also facing charges in connection with a separate Feb. 27 incident at the same Loveland dealership.

Lucy looks like Thor so you'd better use the "right" pronouns with him. I mean, her.

And speaking of rancid sex criminals protected by the Deep State:

Hunter Biden has agreed to give up his license to practice law in Washington, D.C., as a result of his criminal record.

The D.C. Bar's Board on Professional Responsibility, which oversees attorney discipline proceedings, revealed the decision by former President Joe Biden's son in a series of filings made public this week.

The voluntary decision to accept disbarment avoids potentially protracted proceedings over whether Hunter Biden's two prior criminal cases required him to lose his law license. Last June, he was convicted of owning a gun while using illegal drugs and lying on a gun-purchase form about his drug use. And in September, he pleaded guilty to tax evasion and other tax crimes.
