The Tennessee Conservative [By Kelly M. Jackson] –
A young trans woman armed with several weapons, including two rifles and a handgun, gained access to The Covenant School, a private Christian school in Green Hills, and killed 6 people before being killed by police.
Audrey Elizabeth Hale, 28 of Nashville, according to reports a former student of the school, entered through a side door on the first floor of the building and began shooting, making her way up to the second floor where the majority of the attack occurred.
Officers engaged Hale on the second floor, killing her, before she had the opportunity to hurt any other individuals in the building, all of whom were in lockdown mode following an active shooter protocol that was in place at the school.
Hale entered the building by shooting through a locked side door, just after 10 am, Monday morning. Four minutes into the attack she was initially confronted by 2 of the 5 responding MNPD officers on the second floor. The attack lasted a total of 14 minutes from the time Hale entered the building until she was killed by MNPD officers.
A search of Hale’s family home where she lived with her parents revealed evidence that she had been surveilling the school, along with a map. Also at the location, was a manifesto that indicated that she had intentions of doing even further harm, based on plans that were included in the materials belonging to the shooter.
“We have a manifesto, we have some writings that we’re going over that pertain to this day,” Nashville police chief John Drake said about the evidence discovered during the search. Drake also indicated that Hale chose the school because of its lack of armed security.
Chief Drake said, “There was another location that was mentioned, but because of threat assessment by the suspect, too much security, they decided not to.” “That area was here in Nashville, so we’re continuing with that investigation,” Drake said.
Drake said police will be investigating if Hale’s identity as transgender played any role in the deadly attack that has left a Nashville community devastated. Nearly 200 hundred students and 50 staff were evacuated and taken to a nearby church where parents were reunited with their children.
Fox News reports that Tennessee Republican Representative Tim Burchett is calling for the shooter’s manifesto to be released to the public.
In a statement to Fox late Monday, Burchett said “Our trans youth are troubled. If they don’t get the help they need they can grow up to have some serious issues, but I obviously don’t believe they’ll all grow up to be shooters like this. We need to know what was going on through this person’s head, and the manifesto should be made public.”
The 6 victims fatally shot by the active shooter at Covenant School are identified as: Evelyn Dieckhaus, Hallie Scruggs, and William Kinney, all age 9, Cynthia Peak, age 61, Katherine Koonce, age 60, and Mike Hill, age 61.
In response to the shooting, both the Tennessee Senate and House stated that they will not debate legislation as scheduled during Monday afternoon and evening sessions.
“Today in Nashville, the lives of three children and three adults were taken in another mass shooting at a school,” said Tennessee House Minority Leader Karen Camper, D-Memphis. “This cannot continue to be normal in our country. I will continue to work as the Democratic Leader to find REAL solutions to this very REAL problem of guns being used to harm our children. Governor Lee, we must make change now.”
House Speaker Cameron Sexton (R-Crossville) said, “No harm should ever come to any child. At some point today, please take a moment to pray for the families impacted by this tragedy. As we continue learning more details, we appreciate law enforcement and first responders for their quick response neutralizing the threat.”
Along with legislative activities in the Tennessee House and Senate being halted for the day, the planned Metro Nashville committee meeting to discuss the financial details of a potential $2.2 billion stadium to house the Tennessee Titans has also been postponed without a rescheduled date, The Center Square reports.

First of all it was a male and not a female. There is no such thing as a trans. God created man and woman. God does not make mistakes. This trans nonsense is the real reason for this very sad tragedy. These people have real mental issues. We as a society need to stop placating to these mentally ill people. The mental problem has become the real pandemic in America ever since all mental institutions have closed across this country. Representative Tim Burchett is absolutely correct in his statement but the commander in thief believes a ban on weapons is the answer. This current administration ruining our country condones and promotes this reprobate and immoral behavior. They are a godless administration and they will stand before God. Our prayers go out to the victims and their families.
ROMANS 10:9,10 NIV
If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.
In God we trust not government or man.
Have a blessed day.
Audery Elizabeth is a female assigned at birth a female name. So shooter was a female not a make. SMH
I stand corrected it was female wanting to be a male. It doesn’t change the rest of my statements. Trans people are definitely mentally ill. I would not be surprised if our demonrat government doesn’t have their hand in a lot of these mass shootings. It fits their narrative to take away our 2nd amendment right.

My understanding is that the shooter was a female who wanted to be a male. I have heard it both ways. Does anyone know the gender of the shooter?
The deranged killer was a female John. Not a man, Jesus Christ, Napoleon Bonapart or a frog. Just a female. Before disposing of her remains the same way we did with Nazi war criminals, which I believe entailed cremation and dumping the ashes in the nearest waterway, perhaps the undertaker will confirm she was a female.
You do not solve the killing of people by taking firearms from law abiding citizens.
People intent on killing will simply find another way to do it.
This has been proven over and over again.
You are absolutely correct, but the left knows this and doesn’t care, the goal is to disarm every law abiding citizen so we cannot defend ourselves against their tyranny which is getting out of control. I know they secretly cheer when these tragedies happen because they see them as “opportunities” to push their evil agenda. Makes me sick.
It was a female wanting to transition to a male. I blame the schools and social media for filling the kids heads with this nonsense, I never met a kid in my life growing up in the 80’s that ever had this mental disorder and it is a mental disorder! The schools need to have armed guards these days and armed teachers. Locked doors when school is in session, period. I know this sounds extreme but these are extreme times. Better to make it known that schools are protected by armed security so these tragedies stop. This is becoming way to common and it must be stopped. The left will cheer as it’s one more reason to try and ban guns, that is all they seem to care about.
Armed teachers are better than “armed guards”. The FL school and Uvalde TX had “armed guards” who didn’t stop the murders.
The only real solution is to pull your kids from public schools and close them all down. The D’s will keep blocking real security from being in place, and most of the teachers are D’s that have no interest in being armed. Take your children from these indoctrination camps so their heads are filled with this kind of nonsense in the first place.
Agree 100% Ben!
