(LifeSiteNews) — Colorado police recently arrested and charged a young gender-confused man after discovering a manifesto detailing multiple shootings that were to take place at local schools and churches.
On Thursday, 19-year-old William Whitworth, who calls himself “Lilly,” was charged for “threats involving schools in Colorado Springs Academy District 20.” The suspect was arrested on March 31, days after Nashville police fatally shot a gender-confused woman who murdered three 9-year-old children and three adults at a Christian school.
An April 6 press release from the 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office states that Whitworth was “formally charged” with “criminal attempt to commit murder in the first degree (two counts), criminal mischief, menacing, [and] interference with staff, faculty, or students of educational institutions.” The charges were filed after a police investigation.
A preliminary hearing is scheduled for May 5 and the teenager’s bond is set at $75,000. He is being held at the Elbert County Jail.
The school district has confirmed that Whitworth was a former student, having attended three different schools for a total of nine months over two years.
