Moving swiftly as they investigate Monday’s mass shooting by female-to-male transgender Audrey Hale that killed three children and three adults at a Christian school, Metro Nashville Police have posted a video of Hale shooting her way into the building and then methodically stalking around within it.
At an earlier press conference, police said the 28-year-old, who’d reportedly attended the school herself, had left behind a “manifesto” and maps that noted security camera locations, doorways, and other details.
“We have a manifesto,” said Metro Nashville Police Chief John Drake. “We have some writings that we’re going over that pertain to this date, the actual incident. We have a map drawn out of how all this was gonna take place.”
As for motive, Drake said, “There’s right now a theory that we may be able to talk about later, but it’s not confirmed.” Drake appeared to hint that the shooter’s transgender identity factored into her motive.

Drake said Hale considered targeting multiple locations. However — significantly at a time of intense debate over proposals for armed school security and/or armed teachers and staff — Hale opted out of the other potential target because it was too well-protected:
“It was the only school that was targeted. There was another location that was mentioned, but because of a threat assessment by the suspect of too much security, they decided not to,” said Drake.
Hale, who had no prior criminal record, arrived in a Honda Fit with a “Thrasher” logo sticker associated with a skateboarding magazine and selected a parking space in the lot rather than simply driving up to the doors.
