Investigators are reviewing a screed that they suspect was posted by the gunman describing his white-supremacist motivations and ideology. The 180-page document was uploaded to Google Drive and details the author’s radicalization on Internet forums, as well as a plan to target a predominantly Black neighborhood.
The author calls himself a white supremacist, fascist and antisemite. The document is centered on a far-right conspiracy theory that baselessly posits that the White population in Western countries is being reduced — or “replaced” — by immigrants in a deliberate plot.
The author cites Brenton Tarrant, the gunman who killed 51 people in a New Zealand mosque, as an inspiration for the attack. The author also mentions Dylann Roof, who killed nine worshipers in an attack on a Black church in Charleston in 2015.
