A former FBI profiler has analyzed the manifesto of Wisconsin school shooter Natalie "Samantha" Rupnow, noting that "she is projecting blame" in an effort to explain her deadly actions after she shot two people dead and injured six with a handgun before turning the gun on herself.
In conversation with fellow retired FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer on her YouTube show "Break The Case", renowned FBI profiler Gregg McCrary went through the several page manifesto left behind by the 15-year-old shooter in search of a possible motive.
"I've grown to hate people and society. It's truly not my fault," Rupnow wrote in her manifesto.
"What all of you have done to me is to pick and tease me. You've pushed me into a corner with no help whatsoever," she disclosed.
"She is projecting blame off onto her victims", the 26-year veteran of the agency explained. "This is so typical".
McCrary thought back to the 2007 shooting at Virginia Tech, where student Seung-Hui Cho killed 32 people and wounded 17 others before committing suicide.
"You decided to spill my blood. You forced me into a corner," McCrary read from a transcript of Cho's video. "Just what she is saying," McCrary notes.
"This is the pattern that we see repeatedly and it's the pattern that we have in this case".
