The shooter at Abundant Life committed suicide after having killed a teacher, another student, and putting two students in the hospital with very serious wounds.
Meantime, the Madison cop shop is not answering certain questions.
The Madison Police Department (MPD) on Tuesday night declined to confirm to The Tennessee Star the public reporting that 15-year-old Natalie Rupnow, who police say fatally shot a student and a teacher before ending her life at the Abundant Life Christian School on Monday, was enrolled in therapy prior to the attack.
Following reporting by The Washington Post which revealed Rupnow was “enrolled in therapy” during her parents’ divorce, The Star asked MPD to confirm the mental health treatment. The Star also asked whether she was seeing a psychologist, if these therapy sessions resulted in a diagnosis of a mental health condition, and whether Rupnow was understood to be prescribed any medications for mental health conditions....
Therapy. Treatment. Medications. Uh-huh.
SSRI's???? Those scripts--if written and used--are a serious concern, one way or the other.
Her family life is the very definition of "FUBAR." That much we can grant.

If there are certain topics the Madison Police are not commenting on is because it is not their job. Their job is to figure out what the evidence points to as the truth of this tragedy. No professional police department releases everything they know when investigating mass casualty events. It has been disappointing to see normally reasonable commentators from the right try and spin events to match a narrative. Hell, Second City Cop immediately asserted it must be a TRANS boy shooter because the right despises the sexualization of children. Lately I'm reading left leaning sites adamantly claiming racism must be the cause because racism is their go to narrative.
What has been verified from independent sources is that there was court ordered mediation during the divorce custody processes, and counseling, sometimes called therapy, took place. It is known that Natalie's father pulled her out of Madison Public schools to try a Christian education. A father seeing a troubled 15 year old child and believing her best interests may not be Tony Evers unionized teachers. It is also known that he took the child to an established gun range, almost as if he was a varmint-shooter trying to train his child in the art.
Prayer remains the appropriate response to this evil. Madison leadership is pitiful, like the abhorrent Mayor who used the Police Media Briefing to boast of speaking directly with Joe Biden then spelled out her name for the out of town press as if no business cards were available. There are, however, many Christian officers in the MPD, and they kept the crisis limited and are working to discover the evidence before speculating about trendy concerns.
Good comment. For clarification, I have never mentioned the 'guns' aspect here, although a VERY good question is "How did she get her hands on two guns?"
The Madison police force will do their job. But the MSM has a job, too, and as we have learned to our great disappointment, "authorities" do not always want citizens to know what the Hell is actually going on.
Although a late edit to my post, the question of SSRI's is very important. "Therapy" includes those drugs and they are dangerous. It's perfectly legitimate to ask about them.
Finally, I'm not reading 'the dad' as a role model. Looks to me that he placed his biggest problem off on someone else so as to "Christianize" her.
We DO agree that your extreme-Left Mayor-ette is a circus clown. Too bad she has authority, eh?
