Was bullied and in trouble in school for having a hit list

 

BELLBROOK — The identity of the suspect in the Oregon District shooting has been released.

 

The shooting suspect has been identified as Connor Betts, 24, of Bellbrook, government sources confirmed.

 

Chris Baker, who just resigned this summer after 14 years as Bellbrook High School principal, was asked about Betts’ time as a Bellbrook student.

 

Asked about reports that, while a Bellbrook student, Betts was suspended for causing a lockdown by writing a “hit-list” on a bathroom wall, Baker said, “I would not dispute that information, but I don’t want to get involved any more than just making that comment.”

 

A woman who went to high school with Betts recalled the hit-list.

 

“I know he made the list,” she said. “I’m not sure who the names were on there…He had a plan to shoot up the school.”

 

When she first heard about the shooting, she said Betts’ name came to her mind.

 

“I guessed it might’ve been him just from that list,” she said.

 

She added that Betts was bullied at the high school and that he seemed “pretty normal” after he “got some help from making list.”

 

Elizabeth Betz, a longtime Bellbrook school board member, said she only had passing memory of Betts, from an elementary school event, and from graduation, simply because their last names are pronounced the same. She said she was unaware of any incidents with Betts while he was in Bellbrook schools.
