10 ‘See Something, Say Something’ Success Stories
When: February 2018
Where: ACES High School, Everett, Washington
What: The grandmother of an 18-year-old male student contacted police after finding his journal, which contained plans to shoot students and use homemade explosives at ACES High School.
The student wrote he wanted the death count to be as high as possible so that the shooting would be infamous. His journal entries included details on how to make pressure-cooker bombs, activate inert grenades and deploy explosives for maximum casualties.
“I need to make this count,” he wrote. “I’ve been reviewing many mass shootings/bombings (and attempted bombings) I’m learning from past shooter’s/bomber’s mistakes.”
