As Twitchy reported earlier, there was a school shooting at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison, Wisconsin on Monday morning. We now know from the Madison police chief that three have been killed, including the shooter, who was a teenager who attended the school. Also killed were another teenage student and a teacher.

Police are not giving out any details about the shooter:

Will this be another scenario like the Covenant Christian School shooting in Nashville where police had to eventually leak portions of the shooter’s manifesto for us to understand the motive?

It’s quite amazing which cases have instant information on the perps available and which ones they keep hidden

We do know that the shooter was a student at the school … that’s something. And it is still early in the investigation.

Those students will be on TikTok before dinner spilling all of the tea. We’ll get more info from them than the police

True. As Elon Musk said, “You are the media now,” and though it might prove wrong, people are already posting photos of the suspected shooter along with a name. If those reports are correct, the shooter is a female.

Must be scrubbing social media first.

We’re even seeing links to a Google document that is supposedly the shooter’s manifesto.

No need to guess here. Teen shooter at a Christian School. I’ll withhold judgement until the facts are clear but there is a clear precedent here.

I mean, does it matter? They’ll release details, just wait.

We agree to a point. But just what details will they release and which will they withhold?

The police can’t release that information if the shooter was a minor.

They always withhold info when the shooter is a kid.. we’ll find out but it’s a process

We’re going to wait before speculating any further, but there is a lot of speculation that the “gender” of the shooter may be in question. After the Nashville shooting at a Christian school, it’s hard not to wonder if this isn’t a copycat situation.
