Despite early and misguided

comments by Kash Patel and

Kristi Noem, Dr. Jillian Peterson

of Hamline University Criminology

dept., St. Paul, MN:

"It's this sort of self-hatred that turns

outward, and then you have this really

angry person who plans to go out in

a blaze of glory". . . The 23-yr.-old

shooter fits a profile of one who shoots

children who themselves are young,

isolated, depressed, and angry individuals

who become obsessed with previous

slayings that have generated extensive

media coverage.

The Minnesota funeral home employee,

a husband and father of 5, on the other

hand, provides an entire set of 

confounding explanations :

in a letter to Kash Patel (FBI Director

2025) he called the plot to shot point-

blank at MN State legislators and spouses

part of his "dark plot to involve Gov.

Tim Walz (incumbent) and competition

for the state's 2 U.S. Senate seats".

More recently, he told reporters that

his motive was "COVID-19 vaccines."
