Chilling Details About Nashville Shooter Emerge, Media Trying To Silence

OPINION | This article contains commentary that reflects the author's opinion.

Police have identified 28-year-old Audrey Hale as the shooter who killed three students and three staff members at a private Christian school in Nashville, TN.

Hale entered the building using a side door while carrying two “assault-type rifles” and a handgun. She climbed a set of stairs and opened fire. Three of the victims were just 9 years old.

The liberal mainstream media is accused of silencing details about the shooter’s background and mental health issues.

Hale, who was a biological female, previously attended the Christian school and may have suffered from gender dysphoria. Police found a “manifesto” along with maps and a detailed plan of the attack. Evidence shows that Hale was prepared for a violent confrontation with police.

The transgender mass shooter identified as “He/Him” according to her LinkedIn profile. She also went by the name “Aiden.” Hale’s motive is unclear as many Americans have called on the release of her “manifesto,” including Tennessee Republican Rep. Tim Burchett.

Rep. Burchett said, “Our trans youth are troubled. If they don’t get the help they need they can grow up to have some serious issues, but I obviously don’t believe they’ll all grow up to be shooters like this.”

“We need to know what was going through this person’s head, and the manifesto should be made public,” the Tennessee Republican continued.

The 14-minute shooting spree ended as police returned fire and killed the suspect. Hale’s car was later located near the Covenant School.

Women account for only 2% of mass shooters in the U.S., and Hale is just the fifth female mass shooter in history.

A police investigation is underway because all doors were locked. Security footage shows Hale shooting the doors in order to gain entry.

All six victims were subsequently pronounced dead at the Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital and Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

Three of the victims were just 9 years old. They have been identified as Evelyn Dieckhaus, Hallie Scruggs, and William Kinney.

The three school staffers have been identified as Cynthia Peak, 61, Katherine Koonce, 60, and 61-year-old Mike Hill.

“At one point she was a student at that school,” Nashville police Chief John Drake said. “There was a vehicle nearby that gave us a clue as to who she was.”

Police have yet to established a motive or any further connection the shooter may have had with the school.

All three were pronounced dead after arrival at the hospital due to gunshot wounds.
