Upon closure of the case, the MNPD's Homicide Unit has released a 48-page final report detailing the probe's findings.

Among them, on a page titled "What She Didn't Leave Behind," the police agency disputes that the "transgender"-identified shooter, Audrey "Aiden" Hale, had ever left a manifesto divulging her motive.

This manifesto in question was the subject of several public records requests and ensuing litigation on multiple fronts over its release. After authorities refused to make the manifesto publicly available, parts of it were leaked, including excerpts of Hale's writings showing she wanted to shoot white children in particular.

 

"In this case, a manifesto didn't exist," the MNPD concludes. "Hale never left behind a single document explaining why she committed the attack, why she specifically targeted The Covenant, and what she hoped to gain, if anything, with the attack."

What did exist, per the MNPD, was simply "a series of notebooks, art composition books, and media files" documenting Hale's planning and preparation, the events in Hale's life that motivated her to carry out the mass murder, and her hopes related to the outcome of the attack.

"No single document, notebook, or digital device contains the answer to those questions," the MNPD says. "The answer is scattered throughout all the assembled material, which required a careful review of the material to understand Hale's motive."
