An autopsy report reveals that Audrey Elizabeth Hale, the 28-year-old trans artist who opened fire on a Christian elementary school in Nashville, had handwritten messages on her clothes and wore a plastic anklet with a number. The report also states that Hale identified as a trans male but was officially listed as female. The autopsy found that she died from gunshot wounds, with additional injuries including bruises and abrasions. The details of what was written on her clothes remain unclear, as the city faces lawsuits demanding the release of Hale's manifesto and other writings recovered at the crime scene and her parents' home. Hale killed six people, including three children, during the attack.
