Overview
- The FBI, following litigation, published more than 100 pages of Audrey Hale’s writings, notes, maps, and receipts dating back to 2021.
- A handwritten page labeled “Account Savings Record” lists FAFSA/Pell Grant checks and Nossi College payments adjacent to firearm notes, which outlets report aligns with parents’ 2023 statements that grant funds financed gun purchases.
- Newly released entries document explicit hostility toward Christianity and white people, including reasons for targeting The Covenant School such as “Christian school (hate religion)” and “predominantly white school (white pple I hate).”
- The journals show Hale considered attacking a predominantly Black middle school but wrote reasons against it—citing harm to the Black community and concern about encouraging racist shooters—while MNPD’s earlier report said she sought notoriety.
- Authorities have not released the full manifesto, and families of victims reiterated there will be no closure as officials continue to examine the materials for insights into planning and warning signs.
