  • πŸ”« Court records indicate Westman's name was legally changed from Robert to Robin as a minor, with parental consent.
  • πŸ“ Before the shooting, Westman posted videos on a since-deleted YouTube account showing weaponry with phrases like "Kill Donald Trump" and "I'm the woker baby."
  • 🎯 A target board in one video featured an image of Jesus with a quote, and the shooter had sketched the Annunciation Church, later stabbing the sketch with a knife.

Shooter's Manifesto and Ideology

  • ✍️ Westman's manifesto expressed feelings of being "corrupted by this world" and "tired of the pain," stating a desire to "die on my feet than live on my knees."
