Judge Obtains Transgender School Shooter’s Unredacted Manifesto
Nashville city attorneys submitted an unredacted copy of the Covenant School shooter’s manifesto to a county judge on Friday for review after several lawsuits were filed demanding its release to the public.
Local media reported that attorneys representing the city submitted two versions of the manifesto — an unredacted copy and a proposed redacted duplicate — to the Davidson County Chancellor’s chambers for review ahead of a public hearing about releasing the writings scheduled for June 8.
Two months have passed since a 28-year-old woman, who identified as a man and who this publication is not naming to avoid giving notoriety to shooters, carried out a mass shooting at the private Presbyterian school that left six dead, including three 9-year-olds. The victims’ names included Evelyn Dieckhaus, 9; Hallie Scruggs, 9; William Kinney, 9; Cynthia Peak, 61; Katherine Koonce, 60; and Mike Hill, 61.
Metro Nashville Police officers shot and killed the shooter just minutes after authorities received the first call, according to previous reports. Federal and local authorities searched the property of the female shooter, where they found five laptops, a suicide note, two memoirs, five Covenant School yearbooks, and seven cellphones, according to a search warrant.
Nashville police previously denied The Daily Wire’s request for a copy of a manifesto or diary, citing the investigation as “an open case” and told The Daily Wire to send another request once authorities close the case.
