Highlights from the upsetting new Washington Post article on the Georgia shooter and his HORRIBLE home life (parents are drug addicts and child abusers).
Mother fluffed off her son’s obsession with mass murderers:
“Around that time, Marcee (his mother) said, C**t immersed himself in a new interest: school shooters. He learned their names, how many people they killed, what their childhoods were like. Marcee said she didn’t think much of it, comparing her interest in true-crime stories to her son’s infatuation with young men who shot children dead in the places they went to learn.
Missed opportunities by the sheriffs office:
The FBI – Federal Bureau of Investigation traced the email address behind the Discord account to C**t and notified the sheriff’s office the next day, leading to the front porch interview. Miller (the deputy) conducted the interview without having seen the most critical evidence — screenshots of the Discord chat and those photos of the guns. He would later note in his report that the evidence was in an email attachment that he couldn’t figure out how to open on his phone while at the house. C**t promised he didn’t write the threats, and Miller suggested that was good enough for him. “I gotta take you at your word,” he said. In a follow-up call two days later, Miller told Colin (father) the FBI tip had left him baffled, according to a recording, and that he had no “reasonable suspicions about C**t.” Then he closed the case, without having asked to compare the images posted online with Colin’s guns or to see inside the home. The carpet, wall color and trim in the photos shared by the Discord user appear consistent with images from online real estate listings that show the interior of the house C**t lived in at the time, according to a Post review.
Shooter - “Do you really think that my mom would kill me?” he would often ask.
School districts dropped the ball. Grandmother thought the school would help him since his loser parents and state child protective services did not.
Interviews with family members and a review of private texts and public documents open a window on a 14-year-old’s path to alleged gunman at Apalachee High School.
