“We know that the suspect shooter was a teenage student who attended the school. Again as difficult as today is, that’s still someone’s child that’s gone, that’s still someone that has to deal with what happened today.”
Barnes confirmed that Rupnow was pronounced dead en route to the hospital after suffering a self-inflicted gunshot wound, but he also questioned how the girl obtained the firearm she used to carry out the shooting.
“And so we want to make sure that we can ensure much cooperation as we can,” he added.

I have made contact with the alleged boyfriend of the Wisconsin shooter.
He has very graciously provided me the full manifesto, which I verified by having him screen record himself opening it from a direct link the shooter sent to him via WhatsApp.

Authorities identified Natalie Rupnow, 15, who went by the name “Samantha,” as the shooter at Abundant Life Christian School in Wisconsin on Monday. While she is a biological female, many reports have claimed that she was a transgender although this isn’t confirmed officially.
When asked if the shooter was transgender, Barnes responded that it wasn’t important at the moment and would be determined at a later time.
She was dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound when police arrived on the scene at about 11 a.m. on Monday and Rupnow had attended the school along with some 390 students in grades Kindergarten through 12.
Rupnow entered the campus with a gun and started shooting, killing a teacher and a teenage student and wounding six others. According to the New York Post, Madison Police Chief Shon Barnes stated that two of the injured youngsters are in severe condition and could die as a result of their injuries.
Online, a purported manifesto alleged to be hers has emerged, featuring extreme and cruel opinions.
A social media user claimed they spoke to the 15-year-old’s alleged boyfriend. The social media user, who goes by @Slatzism, said they spoke to Rupnow’s alleged boyfriend, who shared a manifesto and Slatzism clarified that the alleged boyfriend whose name isn’t known yet knew Rupnow as Samantha and not Natalie. Her manifesto was titled ‘War Against Humanity’ and in her manifesto, she spoke about having extremely difficult relationship with her parents. She also claims her family didn’t love her or want her, and expresses feeling like the “wrong child” of her family and says she had planned to commit suicide a long time ago, but felt committing a shooting was “better for evolution rather than just one stupid boring suicide.”
Barnes added that the manifesto has not yet been verified by the police. The motive for the shooting has not yet been established by investigators. A second grader in an adjacent classroom contacted 911 for assistance after the incident occurred.

According to Barnes, police arrived at the school in roughly three minutes. There is currently no proof that Rupnow’s parents have broken the law with them said to be cooperating with the police. He also clarified that the shooter’s gender was unimportant in response to internet rumours and conjectures that she was transgender and used the he/she pronouns.
Jeff Rupnow appears to be the father of the shooter, Natalie Rupnow and lives in the same area of Wisconsin, and has shared many pictures of what appears to be his daughter over the years, beginning in 2009, with the announcement of the birth of Natalie Lynne. Natalie’s social media accounts have now been deactivated although her pictures have gone viral on Twitter/X and Reddit.
School official Barbara Wiers commended the pupils, stating that they “handled themselves magnificently” during the situation. The event “rocked our school community,” she continued.
