A Thread:

1/ Covenant Presbyterian Church and its church-run school, targeted in today's tragic shooting, are at the center of a complex child sexual abuse scandal from 2002-2012.
2/ A 2012 lawsuit alleges that defendants associated with Covenant, including Bachmann, Eades, Avery, and Robinson, were involved in concealing unlawful child sexual abuse by John Perry. The plaintiffs were unaware of the abuse until 2012. cases.justia.com/tennessee/cour…
3/ By 2015, two lawsuits alleged child sexual misconduct by Perry. During divorce proceedings, Perry's ex-wife claimed his "inappropriate marital conduct" led to their separation, also as reported by the Arkansas Times.
4/ John Perry was a prominent pastor who had co-authored several books with then Arkansas governor, Mike Huckabee.

The church allegedly used Perry's home as a "safe house" (on the back of his “good reputation”) for children they believed were mistreated by their parents.
5/ This arrangement allowed the church to remove children from their homes and place them under Perry's care, raising serious concerns about the safety and protection of these vulnerable children in the hands of a confessed child molester.
6/ In June 2009, a family sought help from Attorney Larry Crain after being silenced for raising concerns about children's safety in Perry's "safe house." Crain later filed a $3M lawsuit against the person who reported the abuse while representing Perry.

7/ Additionally, the Davises sued Covenant Presbyterian Church and parishioner Dale Lewelling, accusing the church of covering up for confessed child molester John Perry and putting children in Perry's so-called "safe house."
8/ The family claims they were harassed, assaulted, and threatened for raising concerns about the church's concealment of child sexual abuse.

courthousenews.com/church-accused…
9/ Despite the scandal, local media in Nashville has not covered the stories involving John Perry, who admitted to sexually molesting his daughter in court.

janespeaksup.com/2021/07/04/sec…
10/Presbyterian Church Association was reportedly going to bring charges against Pastor Jim Bachmann of Covenant, another church member who was implicated in enabling the abuse. Yet, no one has been charged in connection with the child sexual abuse allegations and cover-up. Image
11/ This leads to the question, when females only commit 2% of all mass shootings and have only committed 4 of the 147 school shootings before this event, could this have been a carefully plotted vengeance mission?
dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…
12/Did Audrey Hale decide to partake in a tragic act of vigilante justice to try and bring attention to sexual crimes for which no one had ever been forced to pay for?
13/ The ages match up. Audrey, born around 1994, would have been an elementary – middle schooler sometime between 2002-2012 when the alleged abuse happened. Covenant Presbyterian taught kids from K-6th grade. Could Audrey have been a victim too?

abcnews.go.com/US/nashville-s…
14/ Below is a link to a document belonging to a database outlining the sequence of events of Covenant's sex crimes and cover-ups. It was compiled and created by a man attempting to expose Covenant for nearly a decade.

What are they trying to hide?

keepandshare.com/doc15/23229/3o…
15/ As a disclaimer: This is in no way excusing the actions of Hale; in no way did anything that happened to her justify her actions, and that is not what this post is trying to excuse.

This post is attempting to dig into the facts surrounding a murky sequence of events.
16/ Another potential piece in the puzzle, Hale messaged her middle school basketball teammate on social media informing her she was going to die by suicide and:

“One day this will make more sense," Hale wrote. "I've left behind more than newschannel5.com/news/she-check…… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
17/ Something that could disprove this theory is if covenant was actually secondary target and the undisclosed school was the primary target.

This is unless the undisclosed school in someway had a connection to the abuse scandal.
18/ Janespeaksup.com for that regional area eludes to multiple christian schools in that area, in that time period, having allegations of cover ups of sexual abuse.

But this is a less likely scenario IMO and wouldn't even be testable until the manifesto is public anyways.… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
19/ As to why she would target kids when an adult would be the abuser: who knows. Anyone who would senselessly murder children and teachers isn't logical.

Crazy people don't think rationally. Plus, since she was a TIF, she likely was on Testosterone and other psych meds.
20/ Testosterone increases aggression and impulsivity, and who knows what comorbid conditions and/or antipsychotics, SSRIS, or uppers, she was on.

Crazy people don't think rationally.
21/ But this theory being true is neither favorable to the right or the left of the political spectrum obviously. The right wants it to be a hate crime (what I thought it was at first), the left wants it to be a fear induced downward spiral due to the alleged "trans genocide."
22/ I made this thread because when I looked Hale's and Covenant's background due to curiosity since female school shooters are so rare, I found the abuse lawsuits within minutes.

I thought it was strange that there were no news articles covering the potential connection.
23/ But in sum, only time and the manifesto will tell.

Here is the Jane website link for the specific region the school is in again for reference (it is also linked multiple times above)

What I looked like irl while digging through 20 year old court dockets researching for this thread: Image
So it looks like they’re gearing up to avoid releasing the manifesto *sigh*

It’s almost poetic.

He was convicted of robbing, kidnapping, sodomizing and sexually abusing a woman he didn’t know btw, and her excuse for halving the sentence was “he fell through the cracks [as a black man] in this society.”

Truly incredible.
“Off the record, the defendant was speaking to Ms. Zgonjanin [the victim] and stated, ‘I will see you in 20 years, b****,’” Judge Davis read aloud. “On the record, in front of the entire court, he stated, ‘D**** s*****, f**** y’all kids, and f**** y’all’s dead loved ones.’ In addition to that, speaking directly to the court, he said, ‘Eat my d****, b****. I’m going to pop your *** and s*** my d***, b****.’”

Additionally, below is the exchange that preceded Judge Davis’s decision to forgo the jury’s recommended sentence in favor of a lighter sentence (mind you he was telling the court this while she was actively handing out the sentence):

Thompson: “I don’t have sympathy for nobody.”

Judge Davis: “If you come in here and you show the court –"

Thompson: “I don’t have sympathy for you, the victim, the victim’s family.”

Judge Davis: “We don’t need your sympathy.”

Thompson: “I don’t care.”

Judge Davis: “That’s fine.”
This particular judge also has an incredible history lmao

In 2019, Davis was charged with a felony for “making a false statement to receive benefits,” when she applied for food stamps and Medicaid, according to court records. The records say her statement allowed her to receive a combined $15,909 in overpayments.

On Sept. 2, 2019, records show she was charged with reckless driving and driving under the influence – at 6:59 in the morning − after a deputy sheriff saw her “swerving all over the road” and “crossing all lanes” on Interstate 71.
She failed three field sobriety tests given to her by a Louisville Metro Police officer, according to her citation.

Davis was also sued in 2019 by a woman who provided management services for her unsuccessful 2018 campaign for district court and who alleged she failed to pay a $22,000 bill. When the sheriff’s office attempted to serve her with the suit six times at her home, Davis avoided service each time, according to court records.

Steavon Deonna Stokes, the plaintiff, eventually won a default judgment against Davis, which she appealed, saying she had never been served with the lawsuit.  
In a 2021 unanimous decision, the Court of Appeals affirmed the judgment against Davis.

But wait. It gets even better.

The central factor in Judge Tracy E. Davis’s victory was the vulnerability of the incumbent, Judge Mary Shaw, the only sitting circuit judge in Jefferson County to face a challenger in the election. Shaw had signed the warrant that led to the 2020 police search of Breonna Taylor’s home, during which Taylor was fatally shot by a detective after her boyfriend, believing the couple was being robbed, fired a single shot that struck a detective in the leg.

You cannot make this stuff up.Image

I’m deeply suspicious of Thomas Massie because of his funding sources and you should probably be too.

In 2011, my papa was laid off from a Whirlpool manufacturing plant, the kind that had for so long made America great. In the wake of the financial crisis, the C-suite had decided to offshore operations to Mexico.

The plant they shuttered was a 1.2 million sq ft manufacturing plant, and overnight, 1,000 people lost their jobs. Many of whom had been working there for decades.

My papa was 57 years old when he got laid off. He had worked at that very same plant for over 30 years, and snap just like that, it was all gone.

1/6
When I was a little girl, from as far back as I could remember, my papa woke up at 3:30 am and drove the 40 minutes to the plant from the rural 1,200-person town every single day. And for 30 years, he worked what were often 10-12 hour shifts with no complaints.

I grew up a Navy brat, so I didn’t get to see my grandparents except for a few months during the summer, but I remember my papa exerting the last drop of his energy so he could spend time with us going to the creek, building us a tree house, riding horses, and playing cowboys and Indians.

Every evening, starting from when I was in grade school, my papa and I would sit in the living room and watch the History Channel, Animal Planet, and Bill O’Reilly and hee-haw together about what the Democrats were doing, as much as an eight-year-old can.

My papa and my nana had been together since they graduated high school; they got married at barely 18 and had my mom less than a year later and my aunt soon after that.

They had a small homestead, owned most of what they had outright, and they were poor, but poor doesn’t have to mean that much when you can work the land.

My nana worked as the local school’s secretary, and my papa had good benefits with his manufacturing job. They only ever went out to eat on special occasions. McDonald’s was a birthday-only type of affair. They had a one-acre garden, a few head of cattle, would can fruits and vegetables at the end of every summer, and freeze chopped okra, blueberries, meat from wild hogs and venison in an old chest freezer in the workshop.

2/6
Despite never having been on a plane and seldom ever having been outside of Arkansas, they managed to put both my mom and aunt through college and graduate school without requiring them to incur even a dime of debt. This was the 1990s.

Then at the age of 57, my papa and 1,000 of his coworkers were thrown away like a piece of trash after giving that company decades of their lives. And what were they told to do? What was their consolation prize?

Learn. To. Code.

My papa and nana were born in the 1950s in a place that was quite literally the Wild West just mere decades before their birth.

Growing up, neither of them had running water—they drew water from a well, washed up in a tin tub heated over a fire, and went to the restroom in an outhouse. They were both educated in a one-room schoolhouse and both came from families that relied on their farm’s livestock to feed themselves. People like my grandparents built this nation. They built this nation for their children.

But because the thing they sought to build wasn’t a stock portfolio or real estate portfolio, the preservation of their homes and communities was not something that Wall Street nor Washington saw as having enough value to be anything more than apathetic about blowing up.

Trump had just signed the EO banning Trans people from the military two days prior.

The trans identified male was allegedly the command of the flight.

I could always be wrong, but this entire thing is starting to seem a bit like reactionary trans terrorism event.
(((Female pilot))) who was commanding the flight Image
Btw the community notes is just wrong. The above information was provided by the actual Army flight safety investigative team.
