WINDER, Ga.– A police professional evaluated in complying with the unfortunate mass capturing at a tiny Georgia senior high school that left 2 trainees and 2 instructors dead and injured 9 others on Wednesday.
Matthew Fagiana, a retired authorities sergeant and police specialist, informed Fox News Digital that reacting authorities are zeroing in on the 14-year-old suspect’s past and objective at the beginning of the examination.
“Things such as the timeline of the incident. A chronological history of the suspect leading up to the shooting, a deep look into the suspect’s past for things such as interactions with the victims, the existence of any indications of violent behavior, statements or social media posts that could help them develop a motive, and recent internet history,” he claimed.
“And that, of course, only scratches the surface of the investigation,” he included.

Fagiana kept in mind that reacting firms, consisting of the FBI’s Atlanta area workplace and Jackson County Sheriff’s Office, are brushing the scene of Apalachee High School to create an “accurate picture” of the suspect’s path with the institution.
“I can only assume that the crime scene at the school is quite large,” he claimed. “Those types of scenes require a very meticulous examination and collection of evidence – things like logging locations of evidence, spent casings. They’re going to reconstruct the scene and be able to show an accurate picture of the suspect’s entry and his path throughout the shooting.”

The 14-year-old suspicious gave up to authorities and was nabbed complying with the rampage. Authorities claimed he is anticipated to be billed as a grown-up with murder.
“One important piece of the suspect being taken into custody will be the interviews he provides to investigators,” he claimed. “Any time we have someone who commits a mass killing, one of the most important questions we are trying to answer is the ‘why.’ And because many school shooters either kill themselves, or are killed by law enforcement to prevent further harm to others, we are often left without the ‘why’ and can only develop theories based on their history and any evidence they leave behind.”
“So when a suspect is taken into custody, law enforcement and experts on many levels will hope to use his statements and evaluations as a chance to mitigate the likelihood of these events happening again. I think most people agree that individuals who commit these type of crimes have something psychologically that differs from that of most of us – people who would never consider doing something like this.”

Fagiana highlighted the relevance of the institution source police officers (SRO) that took the trainee right into protection, claiming that they “saved lives.”

“While we don’t have all the details surrounding the response yet, it’s safe to assume that the moment the SRO took the suspect into custody, more lives were likely saved,” he claimed. “All across America there exist examples of SROs being a very important addition to school security and the safety of our children and teachers. It’s an important piece of the puzzle in our effort to mitigate the likelihood of school shootings.”

He kept in mind the relevance of stabilizing the special of the target’s family members and notifying the area.
“An extremely significant priority is supporting the families of the victims right now. They’re hurting and need answers and law enforcement will remain committed to addressing their needs throughout these next several days,” Fagiana claimed.
“Law enforcement has a few goals in terms of communication at this stage. The main one is to inform and listen to the people in their community who are directly affected by this. And, of course, next is to inform the media and the communities around the world that are watching.

“Law enforcement will certainly strive to discover an equilibrium in between giving info that they have yet likewise shielding the stability of the examination,” he said. “There is an individual that will certainly get on test for murder and their objective is to ensure that whatever info they provide openly currently does not intimidate the effective prosecution of this suspect.”
The FBI and Jackson County Sheriff’s Office did not promptly react to Fox News Digital’s ask for remark.
