Transgender suspect arrested for allegedly planning multiple school shootings in Colorado Springs

I am not going to publish his name nor his photo because mass shooters do it for notoriety, even when they believe they'll be killed. But a 19-year-old suspect has been arrested for allegedly planning to shoot up multiple schools in Colorado Springs. He doesn't know the students, doesn't know the staff, but if he had gone through with it, he would have all the fame his small, insignificant life craved.

That's why most of them do it, I believe. And I blame all media that posts their photos, their names, their manifestos, anything that identifies who they are and how they think.

The 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office on Thursday said the defendant, who identified by a female name but is a male, according to what's between his legs, was in the process of having his genitals mutilated to support his delusion of being a female.

The suspect is charged with two counts of first-degree criminal attempt to commit murder, criminal mischief, menacing, and interference with staff, faculty, or students of educational institutions.

The way it began was deputies with the Elbert County Sheriff’s Office responded to a disturbance call in the 13900 block of Double Tree Ranch Circle in the Town of Elbert last Friday, according to an arrest affidavit.

The male's family member reportedly told 911 dispatchers that her "sister" had threatened to shoot up a school and had anger issues. The deputies were sent to the house, which was littered with trash and had containers with half-eaten food, making it difficult to walk inside. They were directed to a room where the suspect was sleeping, the affidavit says.

The trash in the room was as high as the bed and there were holes in the wall, likely put there but the male suspect who was too lazy to pick up after himself. The holes in the wall were a testament to his high testosterone levels.

When questioned by the deputies, the suspect admitted to planning the school shooting with his former middle school, much like the Nashville shooter who was also trans, but was a female in real life. The suspect admitted that Timberview, his former school, was his "main target," according to the affidavit.

Arrest papers say deputies found a drawn layout of the school and a manifesto filled with "schizophrenic rants" and mentions of serial killers, politicians, and entertainers, including the Columbine shooters and former President Donald Trump.

Just having a manifesto is a cry for notoriety, but to mention those he did, should show us all how dangerous the media can be by naming these sick individuals and showing their mugs on the front covers of newspapers and online postings.

The suspect's preliminary hearing is scheduled for May 5. Bond was set at $75,000.

Academy District 20 told Fox News Digital that staff and parents were notified of the threats.

"We are filled with gratitude for those who ‘saw something/heard something’ and spoke up," a district spokesperson said in a statement.

The district said the court had ordered a protection order for Timberview Middle School, Pioneer Elementary School, and Pine Creek High School.

The suspect's arrest came just days after a mentally disturbed woman who used "he/him" pronouns entered a private Christian school in Nashville and killed six people – including three 9-year-old children.

It just goes to show how the media inadvertently encourages these horrible tragedies.
