A teenager is accused of stabbing a 15-year-old girl at his school, with prosecutors saying he brought a kitchen knife and attacked her in the back. Court heard that before the incident he left written notes describing motives including hatred of women and interest in serial killers.
According to prosecutors, the defendant wrote about wanting to slit a girl’s throat and considered whether he was an “incel” or a misogynist, responding that he had “good judgement.” Another account of the alleged writings says he recorded a set of motives, including misanthropy, misogyny, suicide and bullying. Outlets describe the notes as part of the case presented by the prosecution, while the reports focus on the defendant’s alleged statements rather than any final verdict.
