The 16-year-old boy who shot two students and then himself at Evergreen High School this week appeared to espouse white supremacist views online and showed an interest in mass shooters in the days before the attack.
Social media accounts that appear to be connected to shooter Desmond Holly are littered with references to mass shootings and antisemitic views, The Denver Post found.
Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Jacki Kelley on Thursday said Desmond had been “radicalized through an extremist network,” but declined to offer any additional details. The public accounts offer some insight into what that radicalization might have included.

Sheriff’s officials on Thursday said Desmond shot two of his schoolmates — including 18-year-old Matthew Silverstone — before turning the gun on himself. Desmond later died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
A kid radicalized by far-right Holocaust-denying websites went to his school and shot the place up, killing a (presumably) Jewish kid and what do you hear from both the Right? Crickets. Not a fucking thing. But when it comes to the murder of Charlie Kirk, the Right is out there, spreading fact-free accusations and innuendos. For the only time that the Right gives a damn about Jews is when they can use Jews as a tool to accomplish some other objective, such as destroying higher education.
Also, it's funny how Republicans and Trump aren't responsible for J6 or the Charleston church shooting or the Tree of Life shooting or the Charleston car attack, but Democrats are supposedly responsible for Kirk's murder.
