On March 27, 2023, a transgender shooter named Audrey Elizabeth Hale entered the Covenant Christian School, intending to kill as many elementary school students as possible. The 28-year-old would kill three 9-year-olds and three adults before being gunned down by police. The Covenant School opened in 2001 as part of the Covenant Presbyterian Church. It held classes from pre-k to sixth grade.
Hale self-identified as a male named Aidan. The shooter left a manifesto on the seat of her car. Police recovered the document but have refused to release it. In other high-profile rampage killings, the killer’s manifestos have been released within 24 hours, leading many to wonder if the manifesto was held under wraps because it didn’t meet the proper narrative.
A court battle has been ongoing for months over the manifesto. The National Police Association (NPA) has been fighting to force officials to release the manifesto to the public. The shooter’s parents are trying to intervene in the case to block the release of their daughter’s writing.
The police have claimed not to have a motive for the attack, but if the manifesto is legitimate, then the motive for the rampage is clear.
According to the three released pages of the manifesto, the killer entered the school to kill the elementary school kids because of their perceived white privilege. The killer was white, but her writing reads like a manifesto written by an anti-white racist.
She attacked the character of children and called them “crackers” in her manifesto. She hoped for a high body count. The killer also picked the target because the school was a private school. She seemed upset that the children’s parents could afford to send them to a Christian private school even though she attended it in her younger years. It appears that she had a lot of self-hate.
The attack was planned for at least two years before being carried out. In the manifesto, the murderer claimed to have come close to getting caught in 2021. There is no indication of how she was almost caught. The woman laid out a timeline for the attack and seemed excited to carry it out. Police did state they believed the attack was “calculated and planned.” The manifesto appears to back up the claim.
The woman also never intended to survive the attack. She planned on being killed by police. She figured she would have ten minutes max to kill as many people as possible at the school. It appears she planned on suicide by cop after gunning down as many children as possible.
Nashville Mayor Freddie O’Connell is aware of the leak. He vowed to launch an investigation into who leaked the manifesto to Louder With Crowder. The Mayor also did not confirm the authenticity of the manifesto, but the launching of an investigation leads many to believe it is legitimate.
“I have directed Wally Dietz, Metro’s Law Director, to initiate an investigation into how these images could have been released,” he said in a released statement. “That investigation may involve local, state, and federal authorities. I am deeply concerned with the safety, security, and well-being of the Covenant families and all Nashvillians who are grieving.”
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) also had copies of the manifesto but refused to comment on the release of the three pages from the journal. It is unclear exactly what agency originated the leak.
The rest of the pages of the manifesto have not been leaked. Due to ongoing court battles, it is unclear if or when it will be released to the public. The NPA case against the city could take months or years to be resolved. Even though it is unlikely AmmoLand News will be able to obtain the missing pages through an open records request, we filed one anyway.
About John Crump
A result of “defining down deviancy” !
Here in California, CCW licensees cannot carry on school grounds. As my training t-shirts state, “When seconds count, the police are minutes away.” As long as gullible people believe a piece of paper (a law), and a sign on a door can protect a school, these school shootings will continue.
There isn’t a legitimate reason in existence why certain persons are keeping the manifesto under wraps.Citizens have a right to know what kind of evil lurks in it’s society, if for nothing else but to try and recognize destructive behaviors and try to prevent evil deeds like this from happening. As for the parent’s resistance in the manifesto becoming public, is there some culpability they don’t want revealed, or that they’re trying to save face? If they’re trying to save face, that horse has already left the barn.
I’ve read she was taking male hormones, and that there is a history of so-called transexual female to males killing others. God didn’t intend for her to have a high testosterone load, so perhaps she wasn’t built to handle it.
Thank you Mr. Crump for accurately describing this evil person. There’s no such thing as a Transsexual. That’s Orwellian speak.
Ok, so let’s have the rest of the writings of this mentally challenged person to find out the real reasons behind the act, and develop ways to prevent them in the future without violating everyone’s God given rights.
