Trinity Shockley, 18, was arrested at Mooresville High School in Mooresville, Indiana, after allegedly planning an attack for Friday on the seventh anniversary of the Parkland school shooting – which saw 17 students and staff gunned down on Valentine’s Day in 2018.
Detectives said that Shockley had an obsession with Nikolas Cruz, the convicted murderer behind the Parkland school shooting; Dylan Roof, a neo-Nazi who shot dead nine people inside of a historically Black South Carolina Church in 2015; and Randy Stair, the so-called “YouTube Killer” who killed three supermarket co-workers on 2017, before taking his own life.
Trinity Shockley allegedly wanted to prove she was the ‘number one fan’ Nikolas Cruz, the convicted Parkland school shooter, with a Valentine’s Day copycat attack.
A teenage girl who developed an “emotional attachment” with a convicted school shooter has been accused of plotting a massacre at her high school which she branded “Parkland part two,” police say.
A poster of the film 2002 film Zero Day, a movie about two boys who conduct a school shooting, was also hung on Shockley’s wall and taken into evidence by detectives, per the filing.
