The FBI has confirmed that the alleged shooter responsible for the tragic incident at a Georgia high school had been on their radar as a potential threat since last year. The incident resulted in the loss of two students and two teachers, with nine others sustaining injuries.
In a joint statement issued by the FBI's Atlanta field office and the Jackson County Sheriff's Office, it was revealed that the National Threat Operations Center received an anonymous tip in May 2023 regarding threats of a possible school shooting. The threats, which included images of firearms, prompted immediate action from investigators.
