<p>A <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/transgender" target="_blank" rel="noopener">transgender</a>-identifying teenager who was taken into custody and charged for alleged plans to commit a mass shooting at a Maryland high school kept a &#8220;manifesto&#8221; in which she praised the Nashville mass shooter, fantasized about pedophilia, and voiced concerns about being misgendered after her crime, according to court documents obtained by The Daily Wire.</p>
<p>The thwarted shooter, an 18-year-old woman from Rockville who identifies as a man, was arrested on Wednesday by the Montgomery County Police Department (MCPD), the county said in a <a href="https://www2.montgomerycountymd.gov/mcgportalapps/Press_Detail_Pol.aspx?Item_ID=45100" target="_blank" rel="noopener">news release</a>, adding that the FBI notified the MCPD about a 129-page &#8220;manifesto&#8221; in which the teenager wrote about committing a school shooting, contemplated targeting an elementary school, and more.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2024/04/moco-docs.pdf">court documents</a> obtained by The Daily Wire show disturbing examples from the &#8220;manifesto,&#8221; which the teenager claimed was fictional, but an MCPD officer said had mirrored actual events and was &#8220;based on reality with a plan of threats of mass violence.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I really want to be famous. Even infamous,&#8221; she wrote on one page. A second entry confesses to pedophilic thoughts, but says she chose not to act on them — &#8220;I sometimes think I&#8217;m a pedophile. I get turned on by little kids,&#8221; she wrote. In a third, the teenager mused about potential news stories about a shooting at a Rockville school.</p>
<p>The court documents show that the teenager did web search on various mass shootings, including on the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/nashville-police-say-ongoing-investigation-prevents-release-of-covenant-shooters-manifesto" target="_blank" rel="noopener">transgender-identifying shooter</a> who murdered six people at the Covenant School in Nashville in March of 2023.</p>
<p>The suspect appears to have been inspired by the Covenant School mass shooting. Media calling the now-dead Nashville shooter by birth name rather than preferred name made the arrested teenager want to change her name, the Maryland teenager wrote in the manifesto.</p>
<p>&#8220;Makes me want to change my name legally before I commit a shooting to make sure the news doesn&#8217;t misgender me,&#8221; she wrote. &#8220;He was suicidal before the shooting. Just like me. He, too, wanted to kill little kids. A rush of adrenaline fills my body. He&#8217;s so relatable.&#8221;</p>
<p>As a result of the investigation, the MCPD&#8217;s Community Engagement Division coordinated with Montgomery County Public Schools to increase security at schools, particularly Wootton High School, police said.</p>
<p>The Maryland suspect was hospitalized in December 2022 after threatening to &#8220;shoot up a school,&#8221; and has not attended school in-person since then, the charging documents say. She spent time hospitalized for homicidal and suicidal ideations, but later returned home and attended school online, the documents show.</p>
<p>She was hospitalized again last month after she shared her manifesto with a fellow patient at a prior hospitalization, and that friend reported it to police. Hospital staff &#8220;felt they were required by law to break confidentiality to notify law enforcement and Wootton High School. The FBI was also notified,&#8221; the documents say, adding that she &#8220;has previously disclosed to psychiatric staff during his in-patient treatment that he had thoughts of a mass attack at his elementary school and high school.&#8221;</p>
<p>The police affidavit refers to the suspect with male pronouns.</p>
<p>A Wootton High School counselor told the FBI that she worked with the suspect from October 2022 through February 2023 and that the suspect &#8220;would express violent thoughts such as shooting up the school.&#8221; The suspect suggested it could occur at graduation.</p>
<p>Chat logs on Instagram, which police received as a result of a search warrant, showed messages that indicated a desire by the suspect to commit a shooting or bomb a school, the affidavit also shows.</p>
<p>The teenager is currently being held at the Montgomery County Central Processing Unit where she awaits a bond hearing, the release from police noted, adding that a news conference is being planned for Friday. The Daily Wire is not naming the suspect due to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/standards-policies">our policy</a> against printing the names or photographs of mass shooters in our reports.</p>
<p>Police made clear that the suspected teen is a biological female who was going by male pronouns. The legal system is treating her as an Asian female, authorities said.</p>
<p>Online court records showed the suspect has an attorney. The Daily Wire reached out seeking comment. A bail/bond review is scheduled for Friday and a trial is slated for June 3.</p>
