If the biological mother had kept him in Norway, two people would still be alive, and five other people wouldn't be injured.

When she took their son to Norway, the father was worried the son might not take his meds for "several health and mental issues" including "growth hormone disorder and ADHD" (source).

Now, we know the father got sole custody, which means 'Phoenix' must have spent many years on a cocktail of meds.

It's not an excuse, but it might explain what went wrong.

More information:

This article says the bio-mom filed a defamation lawsuit against the father, stepmother, and other family members for slander and libel:

The lawsuit read: “The emotional and psychological harm done to the minor child will be evident for years, and will require counseling, and given the child being the age of 11, will have memory impacted by the behaviors of all the defendants for the false claims done on his mother, and for the parental alienation of the close relationship of the minor child.”

The lawsuit was dismissed, but it sure predicted his future.

The Tallahassee Police Department confirmed that Phoenix Ikner, who was shot in the jaw by responding officers, was still in the hospital. Officials said it could be “several weeks” before he’s discharged due to his injuries.

First Coast News obtained an application Ikner submitted for the Leon County Sheriff’s Office’s Youth Advisory Council in 2021 when he was a junior in high school.

The Youth Advisory Council (YAC) “provides Leon County’s young people with an active role in addressing youth issues,” according to the sheriff’s office’s website.

“I would like to be a part of the Youth Advisory Council so that I can try and help Tallahassee become one of the best places for teenagers to live, grow up and plant family roots,” Ikner said in response to a question on the application. “There are lots of issues I hope that this council can discuss and address.”

Ikner said one issue to him was that he believed race relations in Leon County needed to be “addressed.”

“I am passionate about this issue because its a driven factor in the political landscape of today,” Ikner said in another part on the application. “For example at my school there is a clash between the races and that each race feels the opposite race is ignorant. There is no communication or dialogue between them. I believe that race sensitivity should go both ways. We don’t need to focus on one race being better or need different treatment than another. This breeds issues within the classrooms at my school and adds fuel to the fire. I think that the Youth Advisory council could help bridge this gap/issue.”

Mass Shooter Phoenix Ikner disclosed explained how an expected spring break trip to Disney when he was 10 went sideways.

He said instead of going to Disney, “I went to an airport and next thing I knew I was in Norway.”

First Coast News previously reported how in 2015, Ikner’s biological mother, Anne-Mari Eriksen, was arrested on a kidnapping charge after authorities said she violated her custody agreement and took Ikner with her to Norway without permission.

Eriksen later entered a no contest plea and was therefore ruled guilty on July 14, 2016. She was sentenced to 200 days in prison with credit for 170 days of time served, followed by two years of community control and two more years of probation.
