New Report Appears to Confirm Covenant School Shooter Audrey Hale Bought Guns With Student Loan Money
If you needed another reason to dislike student loan programs, you’re in luck.
The FBI has just released more pages from the manifesto of Covenant School shooter Audrey Hale, which suggest that she bought the guns used in the 2023 shooting with money she had from a Pell Grant.
Hale’s parents suggested this two years ago and this report appears to confirm that.
The Tennessee Star reports:
Latest FBI Release of Covenant School Manifesto Files Appears to Confirm Trans-Identified Killer Bought Guns with Pell Grant Money
The FBI on Monday released another 230 manifesto pages written by Audrey Elizabeth Hale, the biological female who identified as a transgender man on March 27, 2023, when the 28-year-old killed six at the Covenant School in Nashville, the Christian elementary school she once attended.
This latest journal appears to have been written sometime in late 2021, and includes lengthy sections about the weapons the killer planned to use to commit a mass shooting at a school sometime that year.
Following multiple pages full of weapons to purchase, the journal includes a page labeled “Account Savings Record,” which appears to reference the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). It also records multiple payments received from Nossi during the period when Hale attended the Nossi College of Art and Design in Nashville.
“FASFA [sic] grant checks started at $2,050.86,” wrote Hale at the top of the entry.
The page then lists a series of apparent ledger entries, starting with, “$2,656.87 (x3 checks from Nossi).” The next ledger entry states, “+$530.00 (x1 check Nossi) ($3,186.87).”
This reference to Hale’s federal student aid, located in the writings next to her entries about guns she considered buying, appears to corroborate the claims made by her parents to Metro Nashville Police Department (MNPD) detectives in 2023, when they told law enforcement their child purchased the firearms using federal Pell Grant money.
She apparently hated religion too, but that seems pretty obvious, doesn’t it?

It’s impossible to know what kind of hatred makes a person do what she did, taking the lives of innocent children and adults. She was clearly possessed by rage. It’s a shame no one close to her noticed it before the shooting.
