• So his white supremacy ideology was secondary according to FBI profilers. FBI concluded the shooting was an act of suicidal murder intended to demonstrate his masculinity and capacity for killing, rather than motivated by ideology or bias. So clearly there were layers. This is why there needs to be study done on these people that do this. If you can figure out how you make a monster you can learn to unmake or stop them before they cross the line. There just isn't enough research done about this. Sure, there is some. Nature vs Nurture etc. etc. But this is an epidemic that needs to be studied and stopped.

I don't think it was either of the suspects they had in mind. I think it was someone else and I also think he had more than the 3 victims. There was a short stretch between Wanda and Michelle. Makes me wonder if there is at least 1 more victim between Carla and Wanda. Then the murders stopped. Usually that means incarceration or incapacitation of some kind. This kind of killer isn't the kind to just stop. He would escalate.

Now I'm extra pissed bcuz who TF kid was being bad and cussing like that in a hallway wtf nahhh. Nah let me help y'all whatever it takes if you need anything I'm not gon be tough on neither of y'all no more. I'm fr too u have my word

If the murderer lived there also, then he probably abused the Castle Doctrine and claimed he had to shoot to protect himself. All of the threats beforehand suggests otherwise though. This is why it's important to find out if the shooter also lived at that home . Abuse of the Castle Doctrine is disgusting. It's possible that's what happened.

After saying it was nice to meet you , and using my right hand to give a handshake, we exchanged names and nicknames because that was the first time meeting. Then I gave him one last reminder about the weird skinny guy and told him to make sure he was actually here tomorrow using code word beeswax so skinny guy could think we were actually still talking about hair. Darius understood because he stood there with his back on the wall, not leaving. Remember , those 2 were walking and talking until I interrupted them first. After dropping hints and saying tomorrow too many times, he no longer wanted to be around that boy. The skinny boy saw this change in behavior and that's what led him to start begging and cussing at Darius. Basically if you were walking with someone, somebody interrupt y'all , and then suddenly the person don't want to walk with you anymore after they done talking to that person.

Right after me and Darius were done talking . Keep in mind Darius was shaking his head no. No still mean no in my opinion.

Skinny boy:

"You wasted all that time. "

"You're being a BIHHH"

"You standing here being a bih when you know he waiting for you."

You steady stalling. Y'all stalling. You keep finding new ways to stall . Quit stalling"

"You could've been there by now."

"He waiting for you, Bo."

My facial expression was obviously shocked, because the skinny guy addressed me for the first time and assured me "He gon be here tomorrow. Y'all can do all this tomorrow." While putting his arm on Darius, like when you motion someone forward.

"I'm going with you . I'll be right there with you."

"You can't let him talk to you this way."

"You can't let him talk to you like that."

"Do you want everyone to think you a bih??"

"Hurry up before she get there , because you know once she get there she gon make things worse. "

Nothing about this is ok. I believe you when you said it was intuition. That stalling was for sure the gut instinct kicking into high gear. And then gon say hé wasted all that time. so basically he was rushed to his death, literally. This anger me on in a way I can't explain

I like the transcript better , bcuz when you do it like this you just throwing out speech bubbles with no context. I like when you explained the backstory and included notes. It help us visualize and feel what was happening. But my thing is ... Do anyone see how the shooter was already waiting? That right there let u know, iykyk

This part is right after they started walking away together.

Skinny kid

"What was that all about? What she want? What she say?"

**He questioned Darius back to back just like this. No pause in between

Darius sighs.

"She just wanted to see my hair. I gotta get her some beeswax tomorrow."

Skinny kid turned around and stared at my shoes in disgust, then moved his eyes upward, glaring. Gave a head nod, somehow even the head nod was mean. Usually those are friendly. I tentatively returned the head nod. A girl was walking behind him and was starting to notice the stare, so he changed his entire demeanor. The smile was so pleasant , I felt bad again for thinking he was mean. His eyes even looked innocent. Then he turned back around quickly. That was too strange for my taste. Something wasn't right about all that, so I reached into my pocket and threw salt over my left shoulder. One of my elders taught me to always throw salt over your left shoulder when people give you a death stare. You can also do it when you meet someone and their vibe is off. To this day, I stay salted up.

Mannnn... u remind me of my grandma so much she ain't play about people bringing negative energy around her. She used to pour salt on the porch and sweep it off every time someone visit her. Even if it was her own grandchildren comin over, she be like "just cuz they kids they might grow up to be evil" my grandma was the same fr

This is shortened a lot . I can't type out the entire thing . Other things were said also, but it's a lot .

Okay we gotta step on the gas pedal look we needa a plan of action. How all of us nerds and this disorganized? P , I gotta give you these records but we gotta get more organized fr

Let's split up.

You = find the Kid. I know you don't like our descriptions but by now the kid should be 22-25 and black. Even if he lies, anything he say is useful because he was the one of the last to see Darius alive

P = find the uncle, get those documents Aug 7th, send us both a copy, and help me draft this law proposal. Help me run these ideas for the youth to reach them early, so this won't keep happening.

Me - I'll work on the Darius Law (a proposal to lawmakers that would enact harsher penalties on murders that occur in this type of manner and also help prevent these type of murders). If South Carolina wants to play games, I'll just go above them and get it implemented on a national level, so that it becomes federal.

All of us = keep reaching the youth about gun violence and remind them of the extreme sacredness of human beings. This will stop them from brutally murdering each other. Also, we need to apply intense pressure on the state representatives.

Okay, and anything else you two might need let me know.

I'm with this. You know I'm gon say something real quick tho....age 22-25 and black...........?.….? .. . In the United States alone, that's a huge chunk of the population and that's no where near specific. But I'll help. And then u gon throw in that "...and black" like that did something. Like that made it more specific. I gotchu tho.

"and black"

I mean, yea.... I'm sure his whole race didn't up and change. I gotta help you and P describe ppl better. Ight that's it. I just had to say that real quick

I've looked over so many unsolved deaths in South Carolina. Have y'all noticed how extremely common this same exact tactic is used on so many murders?

Example:

Step 1: You and another person are having a disagreement. Doesn't matter about what.

Step 2: the person that's mad at you chooses a location to wait for you. This location is purposefully isolated from other people/cameras.

Step 3: you don't want to go meet the angry person, you don't trust their intentions. You want peace.

Step 4: the angry person waiting for you sends someone to lure you into going to that location. The person sent to lure you will utilize anything to get you there.

Step 5: the person sent to lure has now successfully tricked you into going to that location to meet with the angry person waiting for you.

Step 6: You will be killed at that location

Step 7: The person who lured you there will pretend they tried to "stop y'all from arguing/fighting" but really they coordinated the death. They will pretend to play the role of a innocent bystander. In reality, they are the instigator.

Step 8: Your killer will now also start pretending and lie on you by saying that you attacked them and it was therefore "self defense." Unfortunately, because you really did go meet them, it does look like you went there to start trouble.

South Carolina also has the castle doctrine, so killers like to get you to meet them where they live. Usually it's the exact same steps, but sometimes there's variations, or a plot twist. Like sometimes no one is actually waiting and the person luring you is the one that will kill you once y'all at the location. Sometimes the person luring you doesn't know you will be killed, and just thinks it will be a fist fight. Happy to see a fight, they look forward to the confrontation. But when it turns deadly will remain silent out of fear they will be held accountable, or out of fear the killer will get them next.

Yea the switch up is real thats why you gotta watch who you trust and pay attention to how yo inner circle move. My thing is .... I would've been like , Damn why tf you want him there THAT bad?? Red flag after red flag. There was recently another case like this too , in Columbia I think. I can't stand that luring shi. I like people that walk, not slither.

I wholeheartedly agree. Hear me out though : if you're in my inner circle, why should I have to watch you? If I have to do all of that, why are you even in my circle? Hear me out: if you're in my inner circle, I should never have to babysit your intentions. If I can't trust you with my life , why trust you at all? That's my approach to people in general.

Sometimes it's reversed and the Instigator will bring the killer to the victim, instead of luring the victim to the killer. The reverse tactic is as follows:

Step 1

Same thing, for whatever reason, you and another person not getting along.

Step 2

An Instigator hears about the disagreement . The Instigator knows both of y'all avoiding each other to keep the peace. But Instigators hate peace, so this is the part where they devise a plan to get y'all in the same vicinity.

Step 3

The Instigator knows your location, and purposefully brings your enemy with them.

Step 4

The Instigator arrives at your location. You see that your enemy is with them also. You're taken off guard. As expected, you and your enemy exchange heated words. You are killed.

Step 5

The Instigator pretends to play the role of the Innocent Bystander, acting shocked and dumbfounded. Unfortunately, to law enforcement, it does appear that things just escalated. They don't realize it was orchestrated.

Step 6

Now usually the Killer does get arrested when it's done this way, because this time the Killer went to where you were located, instead of waiting for you to meet them at a location. In this reverse tactic, you were a sitting duck. You just didn't know it yet.

Step 7

The Instigator sometimes is charged with accessory , but not always.

Step 8 (varies)

If the Instigator was not charged with accessory, then only the Killer gets arrested and never realizes they got played by the Instigator. The Killer was so busy thinking they were setting the victim up, that they failed to realize they were also being set up....by the Instigator.

*There are plot twists to this reverse tactic also. Sometimes, your enemy really did NOT have plans on killing you. Sometimes the Instigator will tell your Enemy they going somewhere else, but then purposefully pull up to where you are located. Your enemy could be just as surprised as you when y'all see each other.*
