In connection with the tragedy in which seven people, including three students, were killed in a shooting at a private elementary school in Tennessee, circumstances were revealed that the suspect had carefully planned the crime in advance.
It is shocking that it was confirmed that he had prepared the location for the shooting in detail in advance, and even prepared his own position on the crime.
According to the Associated Press, local police are investigating the identity of the suspect who was shot and killed by the police after committing a crime at Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee on the morning of the 27th as Audrey Hale (28), a transgender woman.
Nashville Police Chief John Drake said the suspect, a graduate of the school, had a map showing how to proceed with the attack based on a preliminary tour of the school building, including the location of the entrance to the school.
“She prepared the suspect to face law enforcement,” she explained.
Armed with two AR-15 style semi-automatic rifles and a handgun, Hale first broke the glass door with her gunfire, then entered the building and committed the crime.
In addition, the police have secured and analyzed texts written in relation to the shooting, including her statement and several notes from Hale.
Regarding the statement, Chief Drake said, “It suggests that several shootings were intended to be committed,” and that “Covenant School was just one of them.”
A motive has yet to be determined, police said, adding that all factors were being investigated, including the possibility that Hale’s gender identity was involved.
