Trinity 'Jamie' Shockley, 18, is expected to plead guilty to felony conspiracy to commit murder in exchange for a maximum sentence of 12.5 years in prison and five years probation, according to the Morgan County Prosecutor's Office.
Would-be trans school shooter claimed she wanted to prove she was the iconic school shooter's 'number one fan'.
Shockley, who authorities claim identifies as male and goes by the name Jamie, was arrested in February after police got information that she had access to an AR-15, had acquired a bulletproof vest, and was obsessed with mass shooters.
When officers searched her home, they found her room emblazoned with odes to Parkland Florida mass shooter Nikolas Cruz, who killed 14 students and three staff members on Feb. 14, 2018. Other gunmen the would be transgender shooter was fascinated by included Dylan Roof, and Andrew Blaze.
They also found evidence that she was planning a shooting at her own school, which ‘would occur during lunchtime,’ and was planning to stage it to coincide with the anniversary of the Parkland shooting.
Investigators traced online messages on Discord where Shockley, using the username “crazynickolaz,” allegedly wrote “Parkland part two. Of course, I’ve been planning this for a YEAR.”
Shockley initially told police the plan was motivated by wanting to prove they were Cruz’s ‘number one fan.’ Shockley later claimed to be joking about the threats.
