The investigation into the Madison Madison, WI school shooting that
left a student and teacher dead, six others injured after
a 15 year old girl opened fire.
President Madison with the latest Good morning Alex.
Hey, good morning Georgia.
Through her social media, we're now getting a better picture
of what the 15 year old may have been thinking
in the moments before the shooting.
This morning, the search for answers.
Investigators closely sifting through 15 year old Natalie Rupnow's social
media accounts, hoping to figure out why the teen shot
and killed a teacher and student at her school, injuring
six others.
Identifying a motive is our top priority, but at this
time, it appears that the motive was a combination of
factors.
We're talking to students to understand where their bullying was
one of those multiple factors.
Police say the shooter brought a handgun to school and
opened fire in a study hall classroom Monday.
Many of the families at Abundant Life are Pastor Brian
Peterson's parishioners, including one of the survivors.
But she had to see.
No child should see in that she was right there
in the room when it was taking place.
Investigators digging through the shooter's digital footprint, discovering posts made
in the minutes before the shooting.
We are working to authenticate the documents that you see
online that some are referring to as a manifesto.
James Smith's daughter is a junior at Abundant Life.
He says it's a refuge for many students who struggle
at other schools.
Those who have been disenfranchised or bullied in other situations
and saying, well, you, you can find love here.
You can find acceptance overnight, a vigil at the state
Capitol remembering those who were killed.
Honestly, it's still kind of hard to think and feel
feelings because of just how incredibly, like, emotionally and mentally
taxing that experience was.
You never really realize how much something like this will
affect you until it happens.
And authorities have collected evidence from the shooter's home and
say her parents are cooperating.
Michael.
All right.
Thank you so much for that.
