Police initially thought he was armed. However, a search of his home uncovered a stash of realistic-looking airsoft guns."This was a very chilling offense, not just committed on a whim, but actually practiced," Kenosha County Assistant District Attorney Trisha Riley said.Police said the teen researched school shootings, looked up maps of the school, and took videos of himself practicing with what looked like a weapon."The practicing on video, what was on video, and what we see online on the internet has nothing to do with this event," defense attorney Terry Rose said in court.Rose requested a competency exam for the teen, which was ordered by the court."I think this is a child screaming out for help or maybe just attention in general. Because if he was truly out to hurt people, I don't think it would have been an airsoft rifle," McBride said.The 13-year-old will be back in court on Nov. 22.Its about time to watch on your time.
