The fact AH was contemplating other locations makes me think that the main motive behind this wasn't anything to do with the school. They may have had resentment towards the school, but that wasn't the reason they decided to go on a killing spree.

Well said. Unless there is something in the manifesto, there, as you suggested, might not be a socio / political motive.

The message exchange looked more like "suicide by rampage" rather than "suicide by cop". The school is then included in the target list simply for the shock value.

I wonder if AH had friends? Specifically... did she make new friendships between the ages of 22-28, not just old friends from her school past.

To me, that right there.

How do you get the world to pay attention to your "manifesto"?

Not by committing suicide. Not even by killing your parents.

I hope they don't publish it.

I would like to see this manifesto published because if this person thought what they had to say was so important that the slaughter of innocents was necessary to make us aware of it, I would like to know what were they thinking. Was it about them personally and their particular life issues or something else. jmo
 

Bodycam footage shows officers confronting shooter​

The Metropolitan Nashville Police Department has released bodycam footage of officers encountering the Convenant School shooter.

The video shows an officer arriving to the scene, arming himself with a rifle from the trunk of his vehicle. Officers unlock a door to enter the building as an alarm in the school blares. The officers sweep the first floor and make their way to the second.

A second camera angle shows officers moving up a staircase as one announces, "We got one down." The officer with the bodycam responds, "Keeping pushing."

They begin jogging down a hallway, passing by a dead body and backpacks hung neatly on a shelf. Shots are heard in the near distance, and an officer barks order to move toward the gun fire. Officer Engelbert is the first to encounter the shooter, rounding a corner where he sees the shooter firing out an atrium window.
Engelbert fires four shots and the shooter falls to the ground. Two more officers walk toward the fallen assailant with their weapons drawn, and fire four more shots.

They demand the shooter stop moving and to move their hands away from the gun. An officer tosses the shooter’s weapon aside as the shooter lays motionless, arms spread and back on the ground.

I have no words.

The LE involved showed courage beyond anything that I was prepared to witness.
Thank you to each and every officer that were ready to lay down their lives so innocent people could live.

This person would have murdered everyone in their way if they had not been neutralized.

At suspected shooter's home, more guns​

Dennis Romero

A search of the Nashville school shooting suspect's residence Monday turned up more firepower, police said in an evening statement.

Officers armed with a search warrant scoured the residence on Brightwood Avenue in Belmont-Hillsboro, a neighborhood of seven-figure, early 20th-century homes, blocking off residential streets and using explosive devices to gain entry.

Nashville police said investigators found two more firearms, described as shotguns, at the residence. At least one of those was described by police as a "sawed-off shotgun," some of which can be illegal, depending on the exact measurements and whether the owner has filed federal paperwork.
Other unspecified evidence was seized, police said in the statement. "Writings recovered from Hale revealed that [the] attack was calculated and planned," the department said.

Earlier, police said the suspect, Audrey Hale, 28, had a map of The Covenant School, where the former student allegedly killed six, including three 9-year-old students, while walking through the building and opening fire with at least one of three guns.

The map, Nashville Police Chief John Drake said, appeared to include information on entry and exit points.

Two responding officers found the suspect on the school's second floor, shooting at other law enforcement personnel arriving to the scene, police said. The two officers opened fire, killing the alleged attacker, police said.

Police tweeted a photo of the weapons the suspect allegedly had during the attack, including two semiautomatic black rifles and a 9 mm handgun.

Several vigils took place across Nashville on Monday night, with community members coming together to grieve after the deadly shooting at The Covenant School.

The Belonging Co Church held a public prayer for its community, with Lead Pastor Henry Seeley saying some of the families who attend the church also send their children to the school, NBC affiliate WSMV, which is based in Nashville, reported.

“It’s challenging honestly. There’s been a lot of tears today,” Seeley said, according to the outlet. “The Bible says to mourn with those who mourn and to weep with those who weep and that is why we wanted to come together tonight.”

Community members also gathered at the Cathedral of the Incarnation Monday night.

“People came to mass today full of heart and pain and grief and all throughout mass I saw tears of various parishioners who gathered. And they just need to come together and be with another, " Bishop J. Mark Spalding said, according to WSMV.
