Nashville Shooter’s Journal Reveals Dark Side of Transgender Orthodoxy

(Daily Signal) The Tennessee Star released the full journal of the Nashville, Tennessee, shooter Tuesday, and its contents reveal how transgender orthodoxy can encourage suicidal tendencies—and worse—in a way that turns gender identity into a kind of religion.

Audrey Hale, the 28-year-old female who identified as male, opened fire at the Covenant School in Nashville on March 27, 2023. Before police shot and killed her, Hale killed three children and three adults—Evelyn Dieckhaus, Hallie Scruggs, and William Kinney, all 9; Cynthia Peak, 61; Katherine Koonce, 60; and Mike Hill, 61.

The Metro Nashville Police Department recovered 90 pages of Hale’s writings in a collection the Tennessee Star refers to as “The Covenant Killer’s 2023 Journal.” A source familiar with the investigation provided the journal to the Star in June 2024.
