Unmasking the Obsession: The Prevented Tragedy of Trinity Shockley

Unmasking the Obsession: The Prevented Tragedy of Trinity Shockley

What drives an individual to plan a devastating act of violence? On this episode of the 69 South Podcast, we confront the haunting case of Trinity Shockley, an 18-year-old transgender male whose dark obsession with notorious school shooters nearly led to a catastrophic event at Mooresville High School. We unpack the chilling sequence of events that prompted an urgent FBI intervention and explore the troubling influences that shaped Trinity's mindset, including her traumatic past and the pervasive role of digital platforms like Discord and Snapchat. Could these online forums be breeding grounds for violent ideations among today's youth?

Imagine the chaos averted by a timely tip to the FBI's Sandy Hook tip line. Trinity's story is a disturbing tapestry of personal struggle and societal failure, where her fixation on figures like Nicholas Cruz and Dylan Roof clashed with her aspirations to join the FBI. We discuss the complexities of Trinity's mental health struggles, compounded by a traumatic brain injury and the loss of her mother, and the societal issues that contribute to such dangerous fantasies. Our episode sheds light on the critical need for empathy, understanding, and intervention to prevent future tragedies.

Join us as we navigate the murky waters of Trinity's narrative, examining the psychological and legal implications for individuals and communities facing similar threats. The voices in Trinity's world, both online and offline, reveal a profound disconnect that demands our attention. With a focus on prevention and intervention, we highlight the urgent need for communities and law enforcement to recognize and act upon red flags before they manifest into real-world violence.

00:00:37.432 --> 00:00:55.548
Hello everybody, we got a bonus episode to do for you because some crazy shit happened in our neck of the country and we're going to bring you a story that was supposedly going to happen on valentine's day now what I'm going to be reading to you is the probable cause affidavit for trinity shockley.

00:00:56.250 --> 00:01:09.894
Trinity shockley is an 18 year old transgender male that attended mooresville high school, and she had planned to shoot up the high school on Valentine's Day.

00:01:10.239 --> 00:01:17.406
Now I'm a little bit old school, so clue me in exactly what the transgender like, what she was, what she wanted to be.

00:01:17.406 --> 00:01:19.385
Okay, so she was a girl.

00:01:19.385 --> 00:01:19.989
Okay.

00:01:20.159 --> 00:01:32.736
And she was a transgender male, so she was a girl that identified as a boy, but she liked boys.

00:01:32.736 --> 00:01:34.706
She didn't like girls.

00:01:36.602 --> 00:01:38.915
Okay, that's kind of confusing, but I understand.

00:01:38.936 --> 00:01:39.539
It's very confusing.

00:01:39.840 --> 00:01:42.709
That shit wasn't going on when I was a kid and going to school.

00:01:43.540 --> 00:01:45.248
No, I never even heard none of that.

00:01:46.099 --> 00:01:51.587
Anyway, she planned a big shoot-up of Mooresville High School, which is a very good high school around here.

00:01:51.587 --> 00:01:57.394
It has good sports, it's in a good county, I mean it's considered a pretty good high school?

00:01:57.575 --> 00:01:59.462
Yeah, absolutely so.

00:01:59.462 --> 00:02:17.039
On February 11, 2025, trinity committed the following criminal offense in the town of Mooresville, morgan County, indiana, in a violation of Indiana law, and it says intimidation, which is a level five felony.

00:02:17.039 --> 00:02:43.229
But since then they have also charged her with a level two felony conspiracy to commit murder, with a level two felony conspiracy to commit murder, another level five felony for intimidation, threat to commit terrorism and then another level five intimidation, which is a conspiracy to commit terrorism you know, we had a chance to see this.

00:02:44.151 --> 00:02:47.765
I'm just going to say young girl, because she looked like a little 12-year-old girl to me.

00:02:47.765 --> 00:02:55.936
We were at her initial hearing and she just looked like a little 13 or 14-year-old girl to me.

00:02:55.936 --> 00:03:04.453
I mean, I know she planned all this shit, but in a way, in my own little way, I felt sorry for her because she seemed like a kid that was screaming out for help.

00:03:04.453 --> 00:03:11.551
But let's get into this shit, and there was a lot to it well, I do want to say I've I've seen reports.

00:03:12.413 --> 00:03:21.550
I don't know how accurate they are, but this Trinity was hit by a drunk driver when she was a child.

00:03:21.550 --> 00:03:28.740
So she had a traumatic brain injury when she was a child.

00:03:28.740 --> 00:03:34.173
So you know that her frontal lobes in her brain didn't develop properly.

00:03:35.301 --> 00:03:38.691
Also, it was reported that her mother had died from a drug overdose.

00:03:39.379 --> 00:03:41.423
And her father was raising her.

00:03:41.423 --> 00:04:00.789
Now, on Tuesday, february 11th 2025, at approximately 1900 hours, this investigator was contacted by Morgan County Sheriff's Department Detective Sergeant about a potential threat tip.

00:04:00.789 --> 00:04:11.813
He was told that the FBI's Sandy Hook tip line had contacted the sergeant about a potential threat to the Mooresville High School.

00:04:11.813 --> 00:04:21.608
This tip included the following information Tipster stated that their friend is planning a shooting in Indiana on the 14th of February.

00:04:21.608 --> 00:04:33.990
The tipster stated that Trinity has access to an AR-15 and has just ordered a bulletproof vest.

00:04:33.990 --> 00:04:47.454
The tipster stated that this offender admires Nicholas Cruz and the tipster stated that the offender stated that he will kill his best friend first.

00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:52.872
Now the Sandy Hook tip line was set up and basically remembered from the Sandy Hook shooting.

00:04:52.872 --> 00:04:59.153
For y'all that don't know what the Sandy Hook school shooting was, it took place December 14th 2012.

00:04:59.153 --> 00:05:02.160
Twenty eight people were killed in this school shooting.

00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:06.985
Twenty of the victims were from six to seven years old, and that just breaks my heart.

00:05:06.985 --> 00:05:13.144
Six adult staff members were also killed and the perpetrator was named Adam Lanza.

00:05:13.144 --> 00:05:23.370
He was 20 years old at the time and he died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, which, in my eyes, kind of sucks because I think that's taken the coward's way out.

00:05:23.370 --> 00:05:25.112
He should have been able to endure.

00:05:25.112 --> 00:05:30.048
You know what everybody was going to do to him in the pen and and reap the.

00:05:30.048 --> 00:05:33.627
You know reap what he sowed, type shit man.

00:05:33.627 --> 00:05:42.730
Cause they would have liked him in prison, cause there's a lot of people in prison that don't have their kids and a dude that's out there killing little babies, especially six to seven years old.

00:05:42.730 --> 00:05:45.028
They would have give him a warm welcome.

00:05:45.028 --> 00:05:47.528
But let's get back to the PCA.

00:05:48.819 --> 00:06:02.788
So Trinity had a Snapchat and it was jgull99, and she also had a Discord account and her username was crazynicolas.

00:06:03.180 --> 00:06:06.725
Fill me in on what discord is, because I I don't know what discord is.

00:06:06.920 --> 00:06:13.271
Discord is like um, where people get on and chat like a private server.

00:06:13.271 --> 00:06:25.911
People get on there and chat, and then there's groups, um, just like chat rooms, and so it's a social media network.

00:06:25.911 --> 00:06:33.908
I'm old, I've never been on Discord, so I'm not really exactly 100% for sure, but I think that's about the gist of it.

00:06:34.199 --> 00:06:38.851
Everything I've heard with the name Discord on it has seemed to have been some messed up shit.

00:06:38.980 --> 00:06:40.726
Discord Snapchat.

00:06:40.826 --> 00:06:49.944
Right, I mean y'all might consider me old and shit, but I really think this Internet and all this information is fucking kids up.

00:06:49.944 --> 00:06:50.786
I really do.

00:06:50.786 --> 00:07:03.735
I think it's fucking kids up because when me and you were growing up, baby, there was so much that we didn't know and so much to learn we had was being a little kid, going outside and playing.

00:07:03.735 --> 00:07:26.189
This internet leaves nothing for the minds, imaginations, for these children, and it's, it's them up, I really do, and all the videos on youtube and how every tv comes with youtube yeah, it's like you can't even shut it off anymore and our kids know how to hook up everything.

00:07:27.461 --> 00:07:29.670
It's getting really hard to protect the kids nowadays.

00:07:29.939 --> 00:07:32.425
Yeah, even with the Chromebooks at school.

00:07:32.685 --> 00:07:47.139
you know, I'm sure they have security measures in place at school, but if the Chromebooks are hooked to a different Wi-Fi, they can do whatever they want with them, mm-hmm a different Wi-Fi, they can do whatever they want with them.

00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:55.175
So now this person under these Snapchat and Discord accounts was, quote-unquote, named Jamie.

00:07:55.175 --> 00:08:01.266
So Trinity was Jamie, an 18-year-old 12th grader who is transgender.

00:08:01.266 --> 00:08:11.492
The FBI did an emergency preservation request on the Snapchat profile of JGull99.

00:08:11.492 --> 00:08:14.309
The profile had a phone number listed.

00:08:14.309 --> 00:08:29.211
The FBI did a ping status with AT&T regarding this phone number and it came back within 1,500 meters of the following location around Locust Lane and Trinity Way in Mooresville, indiana.

00:08:29.211 --> 00:08:45.001
The following messages between Jamie and TCC Mama were provided with the tip to the FBI from a chat application called Discord Okay, and it was.

00:08:45.403 --> 00:08:49.489
Jamie said yeah, I'll be honest, I'm close to shooting mine up.

00:08:49.489 --> 00:08:52.427
Talking about the school, I have an AR-15.

00:08:52.427 --> 00:09:00.807
Tcc Mama said damn, OMD, that's so cool, but wait, do you have a solid plan?

00:09:01.440 --> 00:09:07.232
Jamie says Parkland Part 2, of course I've been planning this for a year.

00:09:08.179 --> 00:09:11.528
I'm going to be reading the TCC Mama and Julie's going to be reading Jamie.

00:09:11.528 --> 00:09:16.065
So TCC Mama replies you don't plan on killing yourself, right?

00:09:16.525 --> 00:09:17.648
And Jamie says no.

00:09:18.509 --> 00:09:21.182
Okay, good, your secret is safe with me, bro.

00:09:21.182 --> 00:09:25.109
Kids are awful and if you do carry it out, good luck.

00:09:25.109 --> 00:09:31.788
On February 7th 2025, jamie had a conversation with someone called Sasha on Discord.

00:09:31.788 --> 00:09:41.874
Jamie sends a link with a photo of a 10 Magpul AR-15 magazine to Sasha and also says I'm also buying a bulletproof vest.

00:09:41.874 --> 00:09:51.048
Jamie then sends a link and a photo to a bulletproof vest and says like this TC Mama says you're going to look great bro.

00:09:51.620 --> 00:09:57.393
And Jamie says and like AR's, fire 60 ammunition at a time.

00:09:57.393 --> 00:10:02.893
Another conversation occurred with the same name with someone named Eric.

00:10:02.893 --> 00:10:10.428
So she's having multiple conversations on this discord with multiple people she's had.

00:10:10.428 --> 00:10:17.125
Okay, there's TCC Mama, there's another one named Sasha and then there's another person named Eric.

00:10:17.125 --> 00:10:29.303
Now, in this conversation with Eric, jamie says guys, best news, me and it's a name that's redacted are going to have a sleepover, my crush.

00:10:29.303 --> 00:10:36.182
And then there's a name redacted and it says it was named earlier as a potential victim.

00:10:36.743 --> 00:10:43.874
On February 7th 2025, around 1625, there's another conversation from discord with Jamie and TC.

00:10:43.874 --> 00:10:48.528
Mama, Jamie, I'm talking, I'm taking blank with me.

00:10:49.621 --> 00:10:52.551
And then it's redacted from TCC mama.

00:10:52.961 --> 00:10:55.188
It says my boy best friend.

00:10:55.961 --> 00:11:02.006
And then TCC mama says I don't mean to sound really dumb, but what do you mean?

00:11:02.006 --> 00:11:02.989
You're doing it.

00:11:03.450 --> 00:11:04.072
The shooting.

00:11:04.841 --> 00:11:05.530
Ah okay, and you're still it.

00:11:05.530 --> 00:11:08.407
The shooting Ah okay, and you're still doing it.

00:11:08.407 --> 00:11:09.770
On the 14th yeah.

00:11:09.770 --> 00:11:16.852
So is he going to be joining you in the shooting, or do you plan on killing him too?

00:11:17.340 --> 00:11:18.222
I'm shooting him.

00:11:18.985 --> 00:11:19.748
And yourself.

00:11:20.068 --> 00:11:20.269
No.

00:11:21.421 --> 00:11:24.630
So on February 10th there's another conversation.

00:11:24.630 --> 00:11:28.830
Jamie texts TC Mama four more days.

00:11:29.350 --> 00:11:29.711
Yeah.

00:11:29.711 --> 00:11:38.952
I have this staring at me, and Jamie sent a photo of a collage of what appears to be Dylan Roof, a known mass shooter.

00:11:38.952 --> 00:11:41.240
He's always there, she said.

00:11:41.760 --> 00:11:42.241
Yeah, always there.

00:11:42.241 --> 00:11:42.562
She said yeah.

00:11:42.562 --> 00:11:43.142
And Dylan Roof?

00:11:43.142 --> 00:11:50.905
He was responsible for the Charleston South Carolina church mass shooting.

00:11:50.905 --> 00:12:09.155
He's a white supremacist, neo-nazi and his motive was to start a race war and he is now on death row in Terreau, indiana awaiting execution and he killed nine people, which were all African-American, while they were at church.

00:12:09.615 --> 00:12:10.876
Pray unto the good Lord.

00:12:10.876 --> 00:12:11.758
That's even worse.

00:12:11.758 --> 00:12:13.258
But you know what?

00:12:13.258 --> 00:12:19.144
So she had a collage of this mass shooter on her wall.

00:12:19.144 --> 00:12:26.998
I mean, you think that would be maybe a red flag to her parents or whoever's in charge of this teen red flag to her parents or whoever's in charge of this teen.

00:12:30.580 --> 00:12:33.131
You would think, well, she's 18 now, but she's still living under her father's roof.

00:12:33.131 --> 00:12:34.799
But still, that would be a huge red flag.

00:12:34.799 --> 00:12:38.309
And then Jamie's like he's always there.

00:12:38.880 --> 00:12:41.830
Jamie also sent images of AR-15 rifles.

00:12:41.830 --> 00:12:51.729
The FBI sent Discord an emergency disclosure request and received the following information the username for Jamie was CrazyNicholas.

00:12:51.729 --> 00:13:02.706
They received an IP address to this Discord account as and it's got a bunch of numbers I guess it's the IP address and it was ran by the FBI and it came back to Comcast.

00:13:02.706 --> 00:13:15.144
The FBI filed an EDR with Comcast and they informed them that the IP address came to the target phone number, which is redacted and listed at a Mooresville address in Mooresville, indiana.

00:13:15.705 --> 00:13:27.893
Now, on February 11, 2025, at approximately 1500 hours, a student identified as Trinity Shockley asked to speak with the school counselor at the Mooresville High School.

00:13:27.893 --> 00:13:38.115
She spoke with the counselor and at this time it said Trinity's date of birth was in 2006 and she identifies as transgender.

00:13:38.115 --> 00:13:52.433
Trinity wanted to speak with the counselor about some ongoing issues and ended up disclosing to her that she was sexually attracted to nicholas cruz, the parkland school shooter now.

00:13:52.433 --> 00:13:59.970
The parkland school shooting killed 14 students, three staff members and injured 17 others.

00:13:59.970 --> 00:14:10.490
This is considered the deadliest high school shooting, one of them in the United States, and now he's currently serving life without parole.

00:14:11.821 --> 00:14:18.474
Trinity also spoke about how she wanted to have multiple children with this Nicholas and that she has already named the children.

00:14:18.474 --> 00:14:29.009
Trinity told Miss Mike I'm redacting her name because we didn't want to really put the counselor's name out there that she has written to Nicholas several times while he's been in prison.

00:14:29.009 --> 00:14:36.793
Trinity also showed the counselor a heart locket necklace with Nicholas Cruz's photo inside.

00:14:36.793 --> 00:14:37.413
That's creepy.

00:14:38.380 --> 00:14:46.735
Now I don't understand how she thinks she's transgender but she wants to have children with this man.

00:14:46.735 --> 00:14:49.489
Like she's confused.

00:14:49.489 --> 00:14:50.799
She's really confused.

00:14:50.799 --> 00:15:00.668
So after speaking with school administrators it was discovered that Trinity's best friend is, and then they have that redacted.

00:15:02.374 --> 00:15:06.049
Trinity has also expressed an obsession with a school shooter.

00:15:06.049 --> 00:15:34.143
The GPS coordinates for an emergency cell phone ping places, her address within 15 meters of the ping and her best friend's name is redacted, her address also redacted and her listed phone number of rifles, magazines, tactical vest and photos on her wall depicting a known mass shooter and said that she is going to execute a school shooting on Friday.

00:15:34.910 --> 00:15:44.913
Now, on Valentine's Day, February 14, 2025, it said that Trinity Shockley resides at her address with her father, timothy.

00:15:44.913 --> 00:15:51.990
It is an apartment complex at the corner around County Line Road.

00:15:51.990 --> 00:15:58.504
These apartments are in a formation and face north and to the east.

00:15:58.504 --> 00:16:01.820
They have red, black and tan bricks with brown shingles.

00:16:01.820 --> 00:16:06.440
The apartments are segmented into four per building and are multi-level.

00:16:06.440 --> 00:16:12.409
Trinity's apartment is the first building on the south side of the first apartment on the top level to the right.

00:16:12.409 --> 00:16:24.738
On Wednesday, february 12, 2025, I executed a search warrant from Superior Court 3 for the right to search the residence at that address.

00:16:24.738 --> 00:16:28.443
I was assisted by the Morgan County SWAT team at this time.

00:16:28.443 --> 00:16:42.458
The Morgan County SWAT team utilized a surround and call out method and successfully extracted Timothy Shockley and his girlfriend Erica, his son and Trinity Shockley.

00:16:42.458 --> 00:16:50.542
Trinity was transported to Mooresville police department and at this time, where she was placed into a secure interview room.

00:16:52.333 --> 00:17:03.380
The officer then executed the search warrant along with Mooresville Consolidated School Corporation Police Chief Brian Chambers and Mooresville Police Department Sergeant Brian Anderson.

00:17:03.380 --> 00:17:11.518
They observed in Trinity's bedroom some photos on the wall depicting dylan roof that matched a collage on discord.

00:17:11.518 --> 00:17:19.340
He also knew that this was trinity's room because it contained all of her belongings, like her backpack from school.

00:17:19.340 --> 00:17:23.978
There was the collage on the wall with dylan roof, nicholas cruz and and Andrew Blaze.

00:17:23.978 --> 00:17:27.263
All three of these men were known for mass killings.

00:17:27.263 --> 00:17:32.182
He took the photographs down and collected them as evidence at this time.

00:17:32.651 --> 00:17:53.240
Now, Andrew Blaze was actually known as Randy Stare and he was responsible for the grocery store shootings which caused four deaths, and his motive was that he thought, if he did this, he was going to be reborn as a character from Danny Phantom.

00:17:54.102 --> 00:17:58.340
Wow, there was also a poster for a movie called Zero Day.

00:17:58.340 --> 00:18:02.101
This movie is about two boys who conducted a school shooting.

00:18:02.101 --> 00:18:07.662
The detective also removed this poster and collected it for evidence as well.

00:18:07.662 --> 00:18:12.424
There was also a poster of who the detective believed to be Dylan Roof.

00:18:12.424 --> 00:18:15.092
That poster was also collected as evidence.

00:18:15.092 --> 00:18:19.863
On a bookshelf there was a framed photo of who I believe to be Dylan Roof.

00:18:19.863 --> 00:18:22.534
This frame and photo was also collected.

00:18:22.534 --> 00:18:27.971
Above the light switch was a photo of Nicholas Cruz, and that photo was also collected.

00:18:28.412 --> 00:18:30.875
So you're telling me her room.

00:18:30.875 --> 00:18:40.935
I mean it sounds like it was covered in these images of these men who had done these mass shootings.

00:18:40.935 --> 00:18:48.423
And I'm taken back because her father did not do it.

00:18:48.423 --> 00:18:51.997
Was that not a red flag?

00:18:51.997 --> 00:18:53.336
Was that not a concern?

00:18:53.336 --> 00:19:01.080
I mean, did he just not know who those people were, or was he just not paying attention?

00:19:01.080 --> 00:19:02.836
I mean I don't know.

00:19:02.836 --> 00:19:04.236
The girl was 18 years old.

00:19:04.236 --> 00:19:04.972
So I mean, is she still?

00:19:04.972 --> 00:19:05.998
Is he still responsible for her?

00:19:05.998 --> 00:19:08.630
I mean she is't know the girl was 18 years old, so I mean, is he still responsible for her?

00:19:08.630 --> 00:19:10.696
I mean she is living in his house.

00:19:11.490 --> 00:19:18.308
I mean to her birthday date that we redacted, except for the year she had just recently turned 18.

00:19:18.308 --> 00:19:24.903
Yeah, so I know she didn't just pop up on her birthday and start throwing pictures of these fucking assholes on her walls.

00:19:25.063 --> 00:19:26.875
Right, I'm sure they had been there.

00:19:26.875 --> 00:19:29.417
I mean she said she'd been planning this for a year.

00:19:30.170 --> 00:19:36.181
I mean, I get shitty if my 11-year-old wants to put the Freddy pictures on his walls.

00:19:36.201 --> 00:19:37.022
You know what I mean.

00:19:37.022 --> 00:19:37.743
What's it?

00:19:37.743 --> 00:19:39.236
Five Nights at Freddy's or something.

00:19:39.256 --> 00:19:40.160
Five Nights at Freddy's.

00:19:40.160 --> 00:19:43.976
The pizza store massacres the puppets.

00:19:44.777 --> 00:19:50.711
So the detective located an open laptop on a chair in front of trinity's bed.

00:19:50.711 --> 00:19:54.558
The laptop was placed in airplane mode for collection.

00:19:54.558 --> 00:20:01.717
While placing the laptop in airplane mode, it was observed to have a wallpaper of nicholas cruz.

00:20:01.717 --> 00:20:06.663
At trial, another laptop was located in the closet.

00:20:06.663 --> 00:20:07.645
It was collected.

00:20:07.645 --> 00:20:13.722
Finally, a Mooresville Schools-issued Chromebook was found in Trinity's backpack.

00:20:13.722 --> 00:20:17.681
This Chromebook was placed in airplane mode and collected.

00:20:17.681 --> 00:20:20.118
I wonder why they placed them in airplane mode.

00:20:20.630 --> 00:20:24.500
Probably so nobody could get to it from another device and erase some shit.

00:20:24.500 --> 00:20:32.602
Maybe you know, like if our ipad and our iphones or our mac is connected, yeah, we can erase shit from one of them other devices.

00:20:32.642 --> 00:20:42.958
So they put them on airplane mode and shut that shit down oh, okay, I mean I assume, and you know trinity's father man, he, he had to be going through some shit.

00:20:42.958 --> 00:20:48.499
I mean, his wife died of a drug overdose, he was in the military, he might have been going through ptsd.

00:20:48.499 --> 00:20:59.655
So, bro, we're not throwing any shade on you, we're just saying maybe there were some red flags that could have, you know, maybe prevented this we, you know, we don't know what you were going through, bro, is all we're saying.

00:20:59.816 --> 00:21:05.038
We're just spitting the story I mean and I'm sure he's taken back by all this too, too.

00:21:05.038 --> 00:21:06.602
I mean, I know I would be.

00:21:07.049 --> 00:21:09.474
He's probably going through it, man, I mean, he really is.

00:21:10.029 --> 00:21:18.144
So the detective also collected an iPhone that was located on the bookshelf and an iPhone that was on the top shelf of a closet.

00:21:18.144 --> 00:21:25.163
So she had two iPhones and two or three laptops in her room.

00:21:25.163 --> 00:21:29.000
That's just weird that you'd have that many, I think.

00:21:29.000 --> 00:21:37.484
Now, on Trinity's backpack I observed three safety pin style buttons.

00:21:37.484 --> 00:21:47.377
Each button depicted one of three murderers listed above Dylan Roof, nicholas Cruz, andrew blaze.

00:21:47.377 --> 00:21:50.692
These buttons were collected as evidence.

00:21:50.692 --> 00:22:07.705
A photo album depicting known mass shooters, including the above three, was collected from a bookshelf near the bed in timothy shockley's room I found a few ar-15 magazines and a box of .50 .40 caliber pistol rounds.

00:22:08.250 --> 00:22:13.022
These were collected along with a soft armor vest that was located in the front room closet.

00:22:14.050 --> 00:22:18.903
Inside Trinity's backpack was located three notebooks.

00:22:18.903 --> 00:22:22.291
Each notebook depicted swastikas.

00:22:22.291 --> 00:22:33.400
The word kill, the word bang, the word kill, the word bang, the phrase I hate you all, die, die, die, among other obscenities.

00:22:34.040 --> 00:22:42.346
The following are excerpts from Trinity's notebooks 12-16-2024.

00:22:42.346 --> 00:22:43.547
My name is Dex.

00:22:43.547 --> 00:22:51.936
I'm an 18 years old, born on October 26, 2006.

00:22:51.936 --> 00:22:53.020
I currently live with my father.

00:22:53.020 --> 00:22:53.762
My mother passed away.

00:22:53.762 --> 00:22:54.506
I am also a transgender male.

00:22:54.506 --> 00:22:56.330
I have a lot of homicidal thoughts.

00:22:56.330 --> 00:23:00.058
In all honesty, I want to be just like Elliot Rodger.

00:23:00.058 --> 00:23:03.494
He is my main influencer, along with Nicholas Cruz.

00:23:03.494 --> 00:23:05.785
These thoughts never seem to stop.

00:23:05.785 --> 00:23:10.917
You may believe that I am some edgelord, but in reality I am just a loser.

00:23:10.917 --> 00:23:16.173
I am grateful for my chance to live, but in reality I am scared of living.

00:23:16.173 --> 00:23:18.939
Is it the government you ask?

00:23:18.939 --> 00:23:25.241
No, it is the sad reality of living with pieces of shit, waste of of life people.

00:23:25.241 --> 00:23:30.816
I hope whoever reads this takes acknowledgement and maybe we'll use it for your massacre.

00:23:30.816 --> 00:23:32.799
I will be back to write again.

00:23:33.181 --> 00:23:37.553
Xoxo, decks now, who is this?

00:23:37.553 --> 00:23:39.434
Elliot rogers?

00:23:39.494 --> 00:23:51.807
I've never heard of him elliot rogers is an English-American mass murderer who was responsible for the 2014 Isla Vista killings on May 23, 2014.

00:23:51.807 --> 00:23:59.743
Rogers had killed six people and injured 14 people using knives, semi-automatic pistols.

00:23:59.743 --> 00:24:05.222
He killed two of his roommates and a friend that was just hanging out there.

00:24:05.222 --> 00:24:18.432
He ended up dying from a self-inflicted gunshot wound too, and basically after he killed his roommates, he went on a killing spree, kind of got to shoot out with a couple of with some cops, but he ended up taking the easy way out, as these people usually do.

00:24:18.733 --> 00:24:19.213
Wow.

00:24:19.213 --> 00:24:26.945
So on December 17th 2024, there was another entry and this is what it says.

00:24:26.945 --> 00:24:29.699
Why is it so depressing here?

00:24:29.699 --> 00:24:33.259
Why must I be so easy to target?

00:24:33.259 --> 00:24:39.863
I don't really focus on them as much, but still bothers me how entitled people can be.

00:24:39.863 --> 00:24:46.143
I don't hate everyone here, but majority of them are all a waste of life.

00:24:46.143 --> 00:24:52.712
Everyone here, but majority of them are all a waste of life.

00:24:52.712 --> 00:24:54.237
Back in 2022, I was relentlessly a victim of bullying.

00:24:54.237 --> 00:24:59.589
They would ask me stupid questions, send me rape threats, threaten to hurt me.

00:24:59.589 --> 00:25:04.935
I hate all of them so much, but at the same time, I like of them.

00:25:04.935 --> 00:25:11.682
Part two of today, tuesday 17 2024.

00:25:11.682 --> 00:25:14.527
It is 1 54 pm.

00:25:14.527 --> 00:25:17.113
So far, today has been weird.

00:25:17.113 --> 00:25:21.137
Someone had accused me of becoming a school shooter.

00:25:21.137 --> 00:25:24.361
Ha, I almost was.

00:25:24.361 --> 00:25:30.675
I am committing what Elliot Rodger has done A mass shooting, a stabbing.

00:25:30.675 --> 00:25:31.960
Time will come.

00:25:31.960 --> 00:25:34.557
Sig Sawyer AR-15.

00:25:34.557 --> 00:25:38.401
Automatic semi-pistol is what Elliot Rodger used.

00:25:39.070 --> 00:25:42.490
Then it says hail Elliot Rodger, supreme gentleman.

00:25:42.490 --> 00:25:50.579
And on January 9th 2025, this excerpt was wrote I am death destroyer of worlds.

00:25:50.579 --> 00:25:53.498
Everyone at my school hates the environment.

00:25:53.498 --> 00:25:54.480
I do too.

00:25:54.480 --> 00:25:57.799
Why must it be so stressful and boring?

00:25:57.799 --> 00:25:59.496
I want to hurt others.

00:25:59.496 --> 00:26:03.861
All of these minorities are useless.

00:26:03.861 --> 00:26:06.857
I believe others deserve to live.

00:26:06.857 --> 00:26:09.431
I don't believe others deserve to live.

00:26:09.431 --> 00:26:11.775
Everyone lives to die.

00:26:11.775 --> 00:26:12.916
I am a loser.

00:26:12.916 --> 00:26:18.471
Ethan Crumbly, dylan Roof, nicholas Cruz, nikita.

00:26:18.671 --> 00:26:19.152
Nikita.

00:26:19.491 --> 00:26:22.775
Nikita, linkedin, my favorites Fuck you all.

00:26:22.775 --> 00:26:24.978
We'll all be laughing when you die.

00:26:24.978 --> 00:26:26.358
I hate you all.

00:26:26.358 --> 00:26:28.020
Die, die, die.

00:26:28.020 --> 00:26:29.481
I miss Ethan.

00:26:29.481 --> 00:26:32.525
We were the same, born 2006.

00:26:32.525 --> 00:26:34.247
Same eyes, boom.

00:26:49.750 --> 00:26:55.146
Ethan Crumbly and Ethan Crumbly was the Michigan school shooter and this case brought national attention because this is the first case where the parents were also charged.

00:26:56.849 --> 00:26:57.752
Oh, I remember this.

00:26:57.752 --> 00:26:59.076
This was a landmark case.

00:26:59.076 --> 00:27:02.672
Because no other parents had been charged, they bought him the gun.

00:27:03.413 --> 00:27:10.444
Yeah, his mom bought him the gun and then, four days later, I believe, he took that gun to school and he shot the school up.

00:27:10.444 --> 00:27:14.121
We'll be doing an episode on him, definitely.

00:27:14.289 --> 00:27:16.878
Yeah, she's actually appealing her case now.

00:27:18.932 --> 00:27:19.757
And he is too.

00:27:20.309 --> 00:27:23.039
I got mixed feelings about all that, but we'll get into that.

00:27:23.039 --> 00:27:24.954
That's another episode for another day.

00:27:25.696 --> 00:27:32.374
So, on January 13th 2025, the next entry was these thoughts won't stop.

00:27:32.374 --> 00:27:37.078
I want to hurt others all of the time.

00:27:37.078 --> 00:27:38.836
I want to hurt others.

00:27:38.836 --> 00:27:42.133
I wish people around me knew about my bad thoughts.

00:27:42.133 --> 00:27:44.394
I love violence.

00:27:44.394 --> 00:27:48.238
I love Ethan Crumbly and Nicholas Cruz.

00:27:48.238 --> 00:27:53.599
Becoming the worst version of myself hurts me, but this needs to be done.

00:27:53.599 --> 00:27:59.894
You all need to be burnt out, killed, wiped away from humanity.

00:27:59.894 --> 00:28:03.963
Right now, I want to pull out a AR-15.

00:28:04.830 --> 00:28:06.095
This is another excerpt.

00:28:06.095 --> 00:28:10.356
Jamie, january 22nd, I cannot stop thinking about Nicholas.

00:28:10.356 --> 00:28:11.740
It's impossible.

00:28:11.740 --> 00:28:13.877
Why must he be so far away?

00:28:13.877 --> 00:28:17.439
Why must have he done it?

00:28:17.439 --> 00:28:18.976
I love you, Nicholas.

00:28:18.976 --> 00:28:21.890
You remind me of Lana Del Rey.

00:28:21.890 --> 00:28:25.681
There are days that I'll cry about you, my forever boy.

00:28:25.681 --> 00:28:28.750
You are a loving soul from a broken home.

00:28:28.750 --> 00:28:32.236
I will always love you, no matter what, my darling.

00:28:32.777 --> 00:28:41.555
Wow, and let me say Lana Del Rey is not any type of mass shooter or murderer.

00:28:41.654 --> 00:29:03.707
Lana Del Rey is a singer, like an indie type singer I never heard of her she has some good songs I mean clearly, clearly, this little girl and I'm not trying to throw shade on her she wants to be um a school shooter a school shooter and, and you know, considered to be a boy.

00:29:03.707 --> 00:29:09.553
But man, clearly she was reaching out, she was putting this shit on there, people was reading it.

00:29:09.553 --> 00:29:14.851
She was trying to talk to the school counselor, she had posters, you know, all over a room.

00:29:15.271 --> 00:29:21.137
But man, it's just, it's fucked up right now, on monday, february 3rd 2025.

00:29:21.137 --> 00:29:23.039
Here's here's another entry.

00:29:23.039 --> 00:29:30.086
Recently, I've been watching and reading about Alyssa Bustamante.

00:29:30.086 --> 00:29:35.942
She killed her neighbor, elizabeth Olten, whom was nine.

00:29:35.942 --> 00:29:39.919
She strangled, slit her throat, then stabbed her twice.

00:29:39.919 --> 00:29:40.801
Why?

00:29:40.801 --> 00:29:40.882
Why?

00:29:40.882 --> 00:29:46.898
She wanted to know the feeling of what it felt like to kill.

00:29:46.898 --> 00:29:48.962
I understand it too.

00:29:48.962 --> 00:29:52.173
I want to stab someone as well.

00:29:52.173 --> 00:29:55.719
I heart alissa on february 3rd.

00:29:56.580 --> 00:29:57.541
This is what she wrote.

00:29:57.541 --> 00:29:59.750
Every day I want to hurt.

00:29:59.750 --> 00:30:02.051
Every day I hate living.

00:30:02.051 --> 00:30:04.532
Every day I hate myself.

00:30:04.532 --> 00:30:05.814
Make it stop.

00:30:05.814 --> 00:30:06.914
Am I okay?

00:30:06.914 --> 00:30:08.278
Am I alive?

00:30:08.278 --> 00:30:10.826
Am I here Replaceable?

00:30:10.826 --> 00:30:12.480
I want to cut.

00:30:12.480 --> 00:30:15.023
I deserve pain, nothing else.

00:30:15.736 --> 00:30:20.702
Now, on February 5th, this entry goes why can't Nicholas be mine?

00:30:20.702 --> 00:30:22.923
I need him in my life.

00:30:22.923 --> 00:30:26.566
I mentally cannot go a day without him.

00:30:26.566 --> 00:30:30.566
It is very difficult not to look at his face.

00:30:30.566 --> 00:30:35.066
He's so lovely and I can always understand him.

00:30:35.066 --> 00:30:38.144
He has taught me a bunch of things about guns.

00:30:38.144 --> 00:30:42.546
Zero-in rifle is a term that he taught me.

00:30:42.546 --> 00:30:47.025
An AR-15 is a semi-automatic rifle.

00:30:47.025 --> 00:30:52.625
And then it says Ethan Crumbly is meant to be free due to his ignorant parents.

00:30:54.394 --> 00:30:59.488
February 14, 2018, 17 people lost their lives in a school shooting.

00:30:59.488 --> 00:31:04.646
Nicholas Cruz, 19, a former high school dropout, dropped fine.

00:31:05.635 --> 00:31:12.846
According to Snapchat and Discord, trinity sometimes refers to herself as Jamie.

00:31:12.846 --> 00:31:19.945
As depicted in these journal entries, ethan Crumbly and Elliot Rodger are also known as murderers.

00:31:19.945 --> 00:31:25.607
Now the detective spoke with Trinity at the Mooresville Police Department.

00:31:25.607 --> 00:31:32.152
The following is the report written by the detective report written by the detective.

00:31:32.192 --> 00:31:38.326
On February 12th 2025, I made contact with Trinity Shockley at the Mooresville Police Department interview room.

00:31:38.326 --> 00:31:47.184
I provided Trinity with a copy of the Mooresville Police Department Advise of Rights information and her Miranda rights.

00:31:47.184 --> 00:31:51.605
Trinity advised that she understood and wrote her initials on the line for yes.

00:31:51.605 --> 00:31:55.424
I then read her a waiver of the rights portion of the form.

00:31:55.424 --> 00:31:57.942
Trinity signed the form to answer questions.

00:31:57.942 --> 00:32:03.567
Trinity informed me that she believed she was talking to me because of her dad's girlfriend.

00:32:03.567 --> 00:32:06.743
Trinity believes that she had a warrant for her arrest.

00:32:06.743 --> 00:32:10.505
Trinity advised that her phone number is redacted.

00:32:10.505 --> 00:32:15.006
Trinity stated that school is okay and that she does not have many friends.

00:32:15.006 --> 00:32:17.323
She keeps a close circle of friends.

00:32:17.323 --> 00:32:23.045
Trinity wants to be in the FBI and is planning to attend Ivy Tech for criminology.

00:32:23.045 --> 00:32:30.827
After she graduates in three months she plans to move in with a friend named I'm going to redact that too from Huntington Indiana.

00:32:30.827 --> 00:32:33.061
They used to attend school together.

00:32:33.061 --> 00:32:36.044
Trinity just started a job at Subway.

00:32:36.736 --> 00:32:42.088
Now, trinity advised that she went to school on February 11, 2025.

00:32:42.088 --> 00:32:48.989
She had a breakdown while at school because her mother had recently passed away from a drug overdose.

00:32:48.989 --> 00:32:51.179
She skipped two classes.

00:32:51.179 --> 00:33:02.673
At the end of the day, trinity has a metal health or a mental I think they meant mental there a mental health class for period five.

00:33:02.673 --> 00:33:08.632
She wanted to talk to the teacher after class and the teacher said she would get to talk to her later.

00:33:08.632 --> 00:33:15.217
The teacher was not available during sixth period so trinity went to the guidance office instead.

00:33:15.217 --> 00:33:20.588
Trinity talked to her, told her counselor about her breakdown and about her mother.

00:33:20.588 --> 00:33:27.470
Trinity also told the counselor that she was scared about her future.

00:33:27.470 --> 00:33:32.116
Trinity told the counselor about her investigations into mass murderers.

00:33:32.116 --> 00:33:36.820
She wanted to understand them more, so she watched them a lot.

00:33:36.820 --> 00:33:40.104
Trinity talked about her dad and missing him.

00:33:40.104 --> 00:33:44.968
Her dad is not very affectionate, but she did not cry about it.

00:33:45.749 --> 00:33:49.491
Trinity is also interested in mass murderers and the mindset of them.

00:33:49.491 --> 00:33:56.422
She will study them in the interview room and watch their movements when no one is in the room.

00:33:56.422 --> 00:34:00.276
Trinity stated that they were not nervous, but she is nervous.

00:34:00.276 --> 00:34:12.268
During the interview she said that while watching the interview with Nicholas Cruz he was emotionless when talking about his victims, nicholas Cruz was nervous but did not care.

00:34:12.268 --> 00:34:19.407
At the same time, when listening to Cruz, it would make her feel something in her hearing about what he did.

00:34:19.407 --> 00:34:21.677
She hated him for what he did.

00:34:21.677 --> 00:34:24.284
At the same time, she understood what he did.

00:34:24.284 --> 00:34:29.708
Cruz wanted to ruin Valentine's Day and ruin the families because he did not have his own.

00:34:29.708 --> 00:34:34.822
She can relate to that because of the loss of her mother and people talking about their moms.

00:34:35.516 --> 00:34:45.467
Now Trinity stated that she uses TikTok, facebook Messenger, twitter, spotify, instagram, red Note and Discord.

00:34:45.467 --> 00:34:49.585
Her username on TikTok is CrazyNicholas.

00:34:49.585 --> 00:34:55.367
She talks to online friends on Discord about true crime and Nicholas Cruz.

00:34:55.367 --> 00:35:04.563
Trinity stated that she does not idolize but does find him very attractive, but she does not like what he did.

00:35:04.563 --> 00:35:07.364
She argued with her ex on Discord.

00:35:07.364 --> 00:35:10.804
She stated that she does not like Valentine's Day.

00:35:10.804 --> 00:35:13.324
She does not understand the meaning of the holiday.

00:35:13.324 --> 00:35:17.606
She does not know what her Discord account is.

00:35:17.606 --> 00:35:26.268
Trinity would talk about hurting people and she would lie about it because of the rage that she feels.

00:35:26.268 --> 00:35:41.780
Trinity says she does not mean it at all and that she would say that she was going to bring a knife to school, but she would not do that trinity also stated that she was joking and said that she wanted to shoot the school up.

00:35:42.282 --> 00:35:46.115
She advised that she would never do that and does not have access to a gun.

00:35:46.115 --> 00:35:52.289
She stated she wanted to recreate with what cru did, but she would never do anything like that.

00:35:52.289 --> 00:35:54.382
It was just said out of rage.

00:35:54.382 --> 00:35:57.222
She is trying to get help with it.

00:35:57.222 --> 00:36:03.927
Wanted to be in homeschool because of how bad her thoughts were, but her dad would not let her.

00:36:03.927 --> 00:36:11.449
Trinity talked to username TCC Mama on Discord about killing herself, but she would not do that either.

00:36:11.449 --> 00:36:14.538
Tcc Mama on Discord about killing herself, but she would not do that either.

00:36:14.538 --> 00:36:18.105
Trinity stated that she did not have an AR-15 and was joking when she said that to TCC Mama.

00:36:18.105 --> 00:36:20.715
Trinity does not know her real name.

00:36:20.715 --> 00:36:25.005
She does not have a firearm, but her dad has one in his car.

00:36:25.005 --> 00:36:26.914
He takes the gun away from her.

00:36:26.914 --> 00:36:31.021
Trinity stated that she sent the messages about a day ago.

00:36:31.663 --> 00:36:36.389
Trinity did have a plan and it was going to be similar to the other school shootings.

00:36:36.389 --> 00:36:39.523
She was going to go into the school and wait.

00:36:39.523 --> 00:36:43.023
Trinity was going to come outside at lunchtime and do it.

00:36:43.023 --> 00:36:48.568
She advised that she was going to wait for lunch because it was the most people coming out of the school.

00:36:48.568 --> 00:36:51.643
She was going to do this on Valentine's Day.

00:36:51.643 --> 00:36:56.242
She had planned to use an AR but would have trouble holding one.

00:36:56.242 --> 00:37:00.596
Trinity did not recall if she had a list of people she wanted to shoot.

00:37:00.596 --> 00:37:09.039
She stated that she would take blank with her because he was her crush and it made sense that he needed to die.

00:37:09.039 --> 00:37:11.182
She wanted them to die together.

00:37:11.965 --> 00:37:22.630
Now Trinity stated that she was not the only one that was going to do this and Rachel was going to help her execute the plan.

00:37:22.630 --> 00:37:26.943
Rachel is from Texas and she was going to come to Indiana.

00:37:26.943 --> 00:37:30.295
Trinity has Rachel's address on her phone.

00:37:30.295 --> 00:37:33.565
She was supposed to execute the plan last year.

00:37:33.565 --> 00:37:37.644
In the fall, they talked on Instagram and she found her on TikTok.

00:37:37.644 --> 00:37:43.126
Rachel blocked her on social media and she has not talked to her in a couple of days.

00:37:43.126 --> 00:37:47.766
She cannot remember if anyone else was going to do it with her.

00:37:47.766 --> 00:37:54.235
Trinity had written down her plans on her phone in her notes with her.

00:37:54.235 --> 00:37:56.119
Trinity had written down her plans on her phone in her notes.

00:37:56.119 --> 00:37:58.664
Trinity stated that she had a notebook in her backpack with things written in it.

00:37:58.684 --> 00:38:01.617
Trinity's motivation for making the plan is Cruz.

00:38:01.617 --> 00:38:05.608
She wanted to prove that she is his number one fan.

00:38:05.608 --> 00:38:08.735
Trinity has an emotional attachment to Cruz.

00:38:08.735 --> 00:38:17.664
Her message behind the plan is that she does not like people who think they are better than everyone else, and people should value their everyday life.

00:38:17.664 --> 00:38:19.108
You never know.

00:38:19.108 --> 00:38:20.798
You could die at any minute.

00:38:20.798 --> 00:38:26.257
Trinity could see herself in court after executing her plan, but she did not like it.

00:38:26.257 --> 00:38:31.297
When she saw all the police officers, it hit her that she did not want to do this.

00:38:31.297 --> 00:38:35.940
She does not want to be escorted to a cop car after doing that.

00:38:35.940 --> 00:38:39.735
Trinity did not want to go to court and listen to all that stuff.

00:38:40.657 --> 00:38:45.027
When asked about a firearm, she stated that she was going to save up money.

00:38:45.027 --> 00:38:50.742
But she thought about on February 10th of 2025, she changed her mind.

00:38:50.742 --> 00:38:56.731
She now wants to be a gun activist to help people get out of that mindset.

00:38:56.731 --> 00:39:02.827
She is slowly trying to get herself out of the mindset of wanting to do that.

00:39:02.827 --> 00:39:14.114
Trinity wishes that she would never think about that kind of stuff, but ever since the bullying happened to her, it was hard on her stuff.

00:39:14.114 --> 00:39:15.699
But ever since the bullying happened to her, it was hard on her.

00:39:15.699 --> 00:39:18.324
She hates herself for thinking that way and she would feel too much guilt about it.

00:39:19.005 --> 00:39:23.440
Trinity also advised that she was bullied about the accident that she had had.

00:39:23.440 --> 00:39:26.768
People would tease her and she has anger issues.

00:39:26.768 --> 00:39:30.623
Trinity used to cut herself in the past because of anger issues.

00:39:30.623 --> 00:39:32.708
She is bipolar like her mother.

00:39:32.708 --> 00:39:37.326
It made her feel like if she was in a room with them she would hit them.

00:39:37.326 --> 00:39:40.224
She could do that and she would be in trouble.

00:39:40.224 --> 00:39:43.844
Trinity received threats from people for two years.

00:39:43.844 --> 00:39:46.342
She was in a very bad position.

00:39:46.342 --> 00:39:51.586
Trinity found out later that the male who struck her with his vehicle committed suicide.

00:39:51.586 --> 00:39:55.719
She felt like she killed him, but she knows she did not.

00:39:55.960 --> 00:40:04.342
She blamed herself for him killing himself I think when she was younger she got I think he was a drunk driver and he hit her.

00:40:04.483 --> 00:40:19.885
That's um the accident that she is referring to so a drunk driver had hit, like, struck her as a child pedestrian and then he committed suicide, and then she blamed herself for the suicide.

00:40:19.885 --> 00:40:22.242
It just goes to show some of our youth.

00:40:22.494 --> 00:40:23.860
She's got some feelings.

00:40:24.262 --> 00:40:28.385
Right, some of our youth people out here are pretty effed up.

00:40:28.385 --> 00:40:32.744
Man, and please, parents, just be aware of these red flags.

00:40:32.744 --> 00:40:37.347
Man, take the time and see what your kids are into, what they're watching, what they're doing on the Internet.

00:40:37.347 --> 00:40:44.503
You know the posters on their walls, the people they idolize, just listen to them when they talk.

00:40:44.643 --> 00:40:45.204
Absolutely.

00:40:45.204 --> 00:40:50.427
Take a few minutes a day and, just you know, figure out what the WTF is going on with them.

00:40:50.427 --> 00:40:53.742
Thank God that this was prevented.

00:40:53.742 --> 00:40:58.166
I mean, I believe that she probably would have went through with this shit.

00:40:59.315 --> 00:41:07.304
Now she stated that in her room she has shrines of Nicholas Cruz, Dylann Roof, Andrew Blaze and a poster of Zero Day.

00:41:07.304 --> 00:41:09.943
Zero Day is about a school shooting.

00:41:09.943 --> 00:41:15.827
Trinity knew that Dylann Roof killed nine churchgoers and it was racially motivated.

00:41:15.827 --> 00:41:21.166
Andrew Blaze was the one who did the supermarket shooting, so he killed three people and then himself.

00:41:21.166 --> 00:41:26.407
She watched the Cruz's trial and it lasted for five years.

00:41:26.407 --> 00:41:28.943
She likes the victim's family's statements.

00:41:28.943 --> 00:41:33.650
Trinity likes the judge in the case because she did not cry.

00:41:34.233 --> 00:41:40.166
Trinity watched another interview with cruz where he stated that he was diagnosed with autism.

00:41:40.166 --> 00:41:48.289
Cruz stated that he did not understand fear and because of that he shoots three girls over a dirty look.

00:41:48.289 --> 00:41:56.860
Trinity stated that she does not understand emotions and did not even cry when her mother passed away.

00:41:56.860 --> 00:42:00.907
Trinity stated that she related a little bit with cruz.

00:42:00.907 --> 00:42:03.079
They have the same mental problems.

00:42:03.079 --> 00:42:08.032
She is not diagnosed with a lot of it, but she has traits of it.

00:42:08.634 --> 00:42:13.364
She advised that she planned her shooting around what Cruz did.

00:42:13.364 --> 00:42:20.409
Now Trinity stated that she liked Cruz's plan and she described what Cruz did at his shooting in detail.

00:42:20.409 --> 00:42:24.619
Trinity stated the names of the victims and how many people he killed.

00:42:24.619 --> 00:42:28.628
Now it says Trinity has friends in Huntington.

00:42:28.628 --> 00:42:38.106
She has another friend online that goes by the name of Rage, or Rachel Trinity, stated that she has a sister who is not her real sister, from Canada.

00:42:38.106 --> 00:42:44.762
She stated that she was going to call the police on her because she was mad about it and was worried about her.

00:42:44.762 --> 00:42:49.726
Branigan was trying to get help, but she begged her not to.

00:42:49.726 --> 00:42:52.025
It's a name that's redacted.

00:42:52.186 --> 00:43:00.978
Used to have the same thoughts, but she does not anymore trinity had looked up body armor because that is what cruz had and she wanted one as well.

00:43:00.978 --> 00:43:04.708
She was going to get it from a shop, but does not remember the shop.

00:43:04.708 --> 00:43:06.577
It was a bulletproof vest.

00:43:06.577 --> 00:43:09.704
Trinity was looking at bulletproof vest about a week ago.

00:43:09.704 --> 00:43:17.746
After talking to people online or talking to anyone, she feels a sense of power to feel that way.

00:43:17.746 --> 00:43:25.237
She also stated that it is more of an interest thing because her dad was in the military.

00:43:25.719 --> 00:43:32.184
Trinity wanted to be like him too now that is the end of the detective's report.

00:43:32.184 --> 00:43:42.431
So at the conclusion of the interview, trinity was placed in hand restraints and transported to the Morgan County Jail.

00:43:42.431 --> 00:43:48.637
She was remanded to the duty jail staff without incident.

00:43:48.637 --> 00:43:59.784
The detective and an Indiana State Police trooper went to an address on White Ash Trail to speak with a 16-year-old.

00:43:59.784 --> 00:44:05.668
Now this person was identified as a good friend of Trinity's and a possible target.

00:44:05.668 --> 00:44:11.452
The following is a paraphrase of their interaction with the individual.

00:44:11.452 --> 00:44:20.349
The interview took place at approximately 1.30 on February 12, 2025, with his parents present.

00:44:20.349 --> 00:44:23.003
Below is a summary of that interview.

00:44:24.717 --> 00:44:38.027
Now the possible victim was informed that he was not in trouble and was asked whether he had had any conflicts at school or anyone might be upset with him, he stated that he could not think of anyone that he had had issues with.

00:44:38.027 --> 00:44:49.701
When specifically asked if he had Trinity, jamie had discussed any problems between them he responded no and added that to his knowledge she was not depressed.

00:44:49.701 --> 00:44:50.769
That to his knowledge she was not depressed.

00:44:50.789 --> 00:44:54.820
Now, Trinity also goes by the name or identifies as Jamie.

00:44:54.820 --> 00:45:02.420
Okay, Now this victim or Possible target.

00:45:02.460 --> 00:45:03.646
Yeah, possible target.

00:45:03.646 --> 00:45:20.148
And his parents were then informed about the specific threat made by Trinity, in which she expressed an intent to carry out a mass shooting at Mooresville High School, with this person being one of the targets.

00:45:20.148 --> 00:45:29.184
Now that individual stated that he had never been to Trinity's house and was unaware of her interest in past active shooters.

00:45:29.184 --> 00:45:36.262
He also confirmed that she had never spoken to him about acquiring firearms, vests or magazines.

00:45:36.262 --> 00:45:43.862
Their last text conversation took place around 2100 hours on February 11th and was about clothing.

00:45:45.317 --> 00:45:57.344
The potential target also mentioned that he and Trinity had only recently started communicating and spending time together around mid-January and that they share a fifth-period health class.

00:45:57.344 --> 00:46:08.728
When asked if Trinity was upset with him or wanted to harm anyone at the school, he responded kind of and elaborated that she disliked many people and generally hated everyone.

00:46:08.728 --> 00:46:15.659
Eventually admitted that Trinity had made some comments in a text exchange regarding school shootings.

00:46:15.659 --> 00:46:23.362
Someone had told her that she would carry out a shooting and blank told her she would never do that.

00:46:23.362 --> 00:46:29.942
She responded yeah, I'm not that psycho, but added if she ever did, she wouldn't target him.

00:46:29.942 --> 00:46:33.608
This conversation took place the previous week at school.

00:46:34.516 --> 00:46:42.369
Now, when asked if Trinity had ever requested his involvement in a school shooting, he said no.

00:46:42.369 --> 00:46:52.041
He also reiterated that she had never sent him any images or references related to mass shootings or other perpetrators or references related to mass shootings or other perpetrators.

00:46:52.041 --> 00:47:01.509
Their primary mode of communication was texting, though they had occasionally interacted through TikTok and Instagram.

00:47:02.090 --> 00:47:12.387
He also expressed shock that Trinity had made a threat against him, stating that, although she had previously mentioned the idea of a school shooting, he believed that she was just joking.

00:47:12.387 --> 00:47:21.440
He recalled her claiming to have an AK or some type of gun at her house, but said she assured him that she had no intention of using it.

00:47:21.440 --> 00:47:30.226
He also confirmed that Trinity had never asked him to store firearms, ammunition or body armor at his house With his parents' consent.

00:47:30.226 --> 00:47:34.657
His room was searched and no firearms, ammunition or body armor were found.

00:47:35.318 --> 00:47:44.782
Now, on Wednesday, february 12, 2025, I spoke with the vice principal of Mooresville High School and the counselor.

00:47:44.782 --> 00:47:54.027
Now, both parties confirmed what was reported the night prior and no significant deviations from their account was noted.

00:47:54.027 --> 00:48:00.989
I also spoke with the head of mental for the Mooresville Consolidated School District.

00:48:00.989 --> 00:48:15.784
Now that person the mental health person told the detective that Trinity had sought mental health resources from school all the way back to when she was a freshman.

00:48:15.784 --> 00:48:22.045
She had expressed suicidal ideation in the past, but nothing was significant enough to cause intervention.

00:48:22.045 --> 00:48:32.246
Each time Trinity would try to receive mental health assistance, her father, timothy, would deny her access to the resources.

00:48:32.246 --> 00:48:45.394
It was the teacher or the counselor's understanding that Mr Shockley did not believe in mental health treatment and did not take his daughter's conditions seriously.

00:48:45.394 --> 00:48:53.909
On November 12, 2024, two weeks after her 18th birthday, trinity signed herself up for mental health assistance.

00:48:53.909 --> 00:49:03.409
Now, for the foregoing reasons, I have probable cause to believe that the defendant named here and committed the offense stated above.

00:49:04.496 --> 00:49:14.668
Now, earlier I said I wasn't going to throw, I wasn't trying to throw no shade on Timothy, but that that shit right there makes me want to throw just a little bit of clouds over his sunshine.

00:49:14.668 --> 00:49:21.869
I mean he denied letting the school help her with her mental health issues that she was reaching out for.

00:49:21.869 --> 00:49:26.146
I mean, this girl was just bagging for help.

00:49:27.103 --> 00:49:27.612
She was.

00:49:28.036 --> 00:49:29.541
She was bagging for help man.

00:49:29.896 --> 00:49:36.389
Do you think that you know this whole situation is a cry for help?

00:49:36.389 --> 00:49:40.766
Do we really think that she was going to proceed and go through with it?

00:49:40.766 --> 00:49:49.827
Because my big heart gets me in trouble sometimes and I try to put myself in everybody's shoes.

00:49:49.827 --> 00:49:58.635
I know mine too, and looking at that little girl, I mean it's just, you would have never thought she didn't even look like she weighed 100 pounds, I mean.

00:49:58.715 --> 00:50:01.425
I felt so bad for her.

00:50:01.425 --> 00:50:07.902
I mean, if she would have went through this shit, you know, I would have hated her for.

00:50:08.364 --> 00:50:09.206
Hurting other people.

00:50:09.327 --> 00:50:09.967
Absolutely.

00:50:09.967 --> 00:50:15.981
But I don't know, man, it just confuses the shit out of me the way these youth are nowadays.

00:50:16.663 --> 00:50:24.465
I mean the question is, was she really going to do it, or was this just her final cry for help?

00:50:24.606 --> 00:50:27.697
I mean, obviously she was cutting herself, she was screaming out for help.

00:50:27.697 --> 00:50:32.327
For four years, it said, all the way back to our freshman year, that's four years man.

00:50:33.795 --> 00:50:38.043
And as a parent, when you see your child going through something you know.

00:50:38.043 --> 00:50:47.728
You know I have two boys and you know how they act every day and you can tell when something is not right.

00:50:47.954 --> 00:50:48.414
Absolutely.

00:50:48.414 --> 00:50:53.297
If you pay attention, you can see the most littlest shift in their attitude.

00:50:53.518 --> 00:51:30.742
or just pay attention parents is what we're saying, so important for parents to be proactive and if their children have social media or they let them on the internet have it locked down so they cannot find anything or get in access to anything that's going to poison their brain be vigilant people.

00:51:32.643 --> 00:51:38.371
And so that's the end of Trinity's probable cause affidavit.

00:51:38.371 --> 00:52:01.744
She went to court today for a bond hearing and I believe she's in no bond right now, but the judge has put it under advisement and I'll update on our Facebook page when her next court date is, and we will be following this case until the end, and I pray that this girl gets the help that she needs.

00:52:02.686 --> 00:52:09.344
Absolutely, and thank God that they had the Sandy Hook tip line, I mean, and thank God that somebody reached out.

00:52:09.344 --> 00:52:13.505
Absolutely, because this could have turned into a shit show really quick.

00:52:13.505 --> 00:52:16.525
