The FBI has released more than one hundred documents related to the 2023 Covenant Christian School shooting that took six lives.

In her notebook, the shooter Audrey Hale—who identified as a transgender man—listed pros and cons of several schools she considered targeting for the attack. Her notes explicitly indicate that she specifically chose Covenant Christian School to target white Christians.

The documents include her handwritten assessment of Covenant Christian School:
– “Predominantly white school (white people I hate!!)”
– “Christian School (hate religion)”

Additional records show that Audrey Hale used federal student financial aid funds to purchase the firearms she employed in the attack. Her FAFSA grant checks began at $2,050.86 and include payments through Nossi College of Art and Design in Nashville. These entries are accompanied by detailed notes about weapons she intended to acquire.
