A conservative law firm is taking the Federal Bureau of Investigation to federal court for withholding the manifesto of trans-identified shooter Audrey “Aiden” Hale, who mass murdered six victims, including three children, at a private Christian elementary school in Nashville, Tennessee, on March 27, as litigation mounts over law enforcement’s refusal to release Hale’s writings.
Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty (WILL)’s lawsuit against the FBI was filed Wednesday morning in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee on behalf of its clients: The Star News Network, a Nashville-headquartered conservative media company that operates a nationwide family of digital newspapers; its editor-in-chief Mike Leahy; and reporter Matt Kittle.
The plaintiffs had submitted a public records request on April 20 under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requesting access to Hale’s manifesto and, after the FBI denied the formal FOIA request seeking a copy of the manifesto, WILL appealed to the U.S. Department of Justice, a preliminary step required by federal law. Then on May 5, the Biden administration’s DOJ rejected the expedited administrative-appeal challenge and affirmed the FBI’s April 25 decision, triggering WILL’s latest legal action.
According to the FBI’s denial memo addressed to The Star News Network’s journalist, the bureau stated that the material requested is “located in an investigative file which is exempt from disclosure,” pursuant to 5 U.S.C. § 552(b)(7)(A). The FBI’s letter also asserted that the information’s release could “reasonably be expected to interfere with [law] enforcement proceedings.” read more
We all know the reason the manifesto hasn’t been released.
I’d say the families of the victims would have standing to sue for release, too, considering that their family members were killed in the name of whatever lunatic beliefs that looney bitch wrote down.
A lot about this whole affair just not make sense to me. Law enforcement agencies are by nature very protective of their jurisdiction and do not like outside agencies stepping on their toes. Nashville Police department found the manifesto in her house, and they have custody of it. I would think that it would be totally their call when to release it and how much would be redacted. I don’t understand why they are letting the FBI dictate terms with regard to their investigation. Higher influences are being plied here, and justice is being subverted.
The (real) manifesto would cause backlash against the trannies. We can’t have that!

They are also refusing to release the photos of the car that show the empty Bud Light cans from the beer she slammed before hand for the courage to do this.
I read it: Redacted TRUMP Redacted TRUMP TRUMP redacted TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP Redacted TRUMP… ad nauseam.
Perverts protect their own.
With a pervert in the White Hut, and the majority of the House and Senate perverts, and the majority of the Supremes perverts, those in the Agencies a bunch of perverts (particularly the DOJ and FBI), and all of them traitors – faithful only to their perverted ideology – can we really expect “transparency?”
After 9/11 gov’t, both Fed and State, bent over backwards to try to depict the izlamic terror attack as a non-izlam thing. The rioting negroes was a non-negro thing. And now, murderous perverts are a non-pervert thing.
Hmmmmm … there may be a pattern here …
Seems like only straight white Christian people are responsible for anything bad.
Even the spic murderer was a “white supremacist.”

Backlash against the trannies, yes, most certainly. My guess is what they really don’t want made public is the effect the drugs prescribed and taken had on her actions. Big pharma doesn’t want additional proof out there that their meds can prolong, alter and intensify mental illness. Suicidal thoughts and actions don’t end poorly for just the patient.
I am wondering what FEDERAL CRIME it committed. That gave the FBI the right to seize the “Manifesto” to begin with.
They are not one damn but concerned about anyone’s interests other than protecting The Party. This manifesto exposes the roll the Deep State, Government, Big Pharma, Media and Academia played in creating this monster. I guaranfuckingtee it leaves nothing to the imagination and lays it all bare.
Tranifesto?
