Colorado Teen's Failed Plot to Shoot Up Schools and Churches

The mother of a transgender teenager in Colorado, who was planning a school shooting, said it was a "family decision" to notify the police. The teenager, Lilly Whitworth, had researched weaponry and the layout of local schools, and had written a four-page manifesto praising serial killers and school shooters. Whitworth has been charged with two counts of criminal attempt to commit murder and one count each of criminal mischief, menacing, and interference with staff, faculty, or students of educational institutions. She was ordered to be held on $75,000 bond and is set to appear in court on May 5.
