For those who aren’t following. Florida woman obsessed with Columbine flew to Colorado over the weekend and apparently bought some guns. She made enough credible threats that the entire Denver metro area closed all of its schools.
Even the daycare where I drop off my kids was on lock down. All the window shades down, no outside recess, lights very low, and you had to be personally let in. If the staff didn’t recognize you and your kids, tough luck. It did not make for a fun drop off.
It appears that she was caught at the base of Mt. Evans. Mt. Evans is over 14,000' high so base is a large area. It is also about 30 minutes west of Denver. Squaw Pass is one of my favorite roads to take the bike on.
You may now go back to your regular scheduled shitposting.
For your time,
Update: Caught may not be the best word. She apparently committed suicide. Don’t know if that was before or after the authorities found her.

Caught dead, at that.

Caught alive? Damn shame.
Edit: Oh, she’s dead. Not really “caught” is it. If you find a massive fish floating belly up, you are not a master angler.

Florida woman catches a case of the Colorados.

To be fair, this woman was supposedly running through a park naked carrying a shotgun.

Fuck, I used to spend basically every summer on Mt. Evans. I was just there three weeks ago.

Her father was quoted as saying, “I think she might have a mental problem.”
Quite a lot of these people who carry out, or attempt to carry out, acts like this seem to have shithead parents.
I highly doubt this was the first indication that this woman had a psychological issue.

Update: she was found on the Echo Lake trail near the lodge where the road to the summit of Mt. Evans is closed. Here’s a picture I took there exactly one month ago:

You’re not wrong..

on the flip side, this country leaves parents who have kids with mental problems hung out to dry. We’ve totally gutted mental care availability. so if your kid has serious mental problems, the attitude is “wow, that sucks. He’s your problem until he’s 18, then we’ll happily throw him in jail. Hope he doesn’t hurt too many people before then.”

How is there no freaking national do-not-sell list for people like this?!

I guess you could say she was wanted... dead or alive...

That’s true.

Even down here in El Paso county, my kids’ school had a police presence due to this.
Also, I’m seeing reports that she was found dead, apparently of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Bingo.
My dad got stabbed by a crazy guy in a parking lot one night out of the blue . He was not a minor but he was supposed to be under the care of his family after multiple previous run-ins with the law. Now he’s probably locked up until he’s deemed “competent to stand trial”, which will likely be never beause he’s NUTS.

Prior to her being found, there were a few people locally commenting that it was a conspiracy. The Red Flag gun bill just passed here, and law enforcement was using this to...to, well, I dunno. “ Stay away from my guns!”

I created this post before I learned of her.....status. The text from my college only said caught. Word around the office is a self inflicted gun shot wound.

I’ve heard about some helicopters out searching last night. Crazy.

I bet the majority of chases in Florida involve something “high” or "speed". :P

I completely understand that protecting constitutional rights is important, but we have to determine a way to protect our citizens from these increasingly commonplace attacks. If the feds, or states in concert, can’t get it done, I think that gun-sellers themselves should form a consortium with a nation-wide list that can be checked against before selling a gun to someone. I’m not saying anyone should be able to put another person on this list, but if a spouse/ parent/sibling/teacher/doctor/police officer/pastor is concerned enough about someone to be willing to put their name on such a list, we should really take a beat and determine whether they’re a threat to themselves or others.

The lack of

I don’t. They haven’t released a whole lot of info about it, to be honest.

She had some sort of blog, not sure if they’re referring to that or an actual notebook.

I have always said that life would be better if the people doing m urder-suicides would just reverse the order. Maybe this woman figured it out?

Reading comprehension clearly not my strong suit...
First line of the article I posted:
An 18-year-old who authorities say had an “infatuation” with the 1999 Columbine High School massacre appears to have kept a journal online in which she wrote about suicide and guns, and alluded to “plans” she was making.

Well if it makes you feel better, we’ve been so inundated with articles here I didn’t even click yours. I just saw the link to her blog posted in response to a few police /fbi tweets asking for tips and presumed that’s what this was about.
Sadly, she’s just one person and the response today makes me wonder who will push things farther on a future anniversary.

they should tie her to a post and let all the survivors shoot her to bits limb by limb. I’m talking knee shots etc. far and few between so she can suffer as much as we suffer her..

Here’s what I wrote in another response:

We clearly have a mental health crisis in this country. It only seems to be getting worse, and yet, from what I can tell, nothing is being done to address it. Just the number of cries for help here on OPPO alone is shocking to me...
