Tennessee appeals court says school shooter’s writings can be made public

The appeals court ruled the shooter’s journals and memoir can be publicly accessed with redactions, challenging prior broad school safety exemptions under Tennessee law.

  • A Tennessee appeals court ruled that the writings of the shooter who killed six people at a Nashville Christian school in 2023 can be made public.
  • The shooter left behind journals, a suicide note and a memoir, which a group of parents fought to keep private to avoid further trauma and prevent copycat attacks.
  • A lower court had ruled the records were exempt under a school safety exception, but the appeals court said that interpretation was too broad.
