Audrey Hale Was Undergoing Counseling With Nashville School Pastor Whose Daughter She killed

One of the six victims killed by Nashville shooter Audrey Hale was the daughter of a pastor who was “providing counseling for her,” according to a recent report.

“Something didn’t sit right with her,” Jim Bachmann — the former pastor at The Covenant School which Hale stormed on Monday, killing six — told Inside Edition.

Bachmann described how Covenant Pastor Chad Scruggs, whose 9-year-old daughter, Hallie, was among those killed, had been Hale’s private counselor.

Transgender Hale arrived at The Covenant School around 9:54 a.m., blasted her way in through locked glass doors, and carried out a 14-minute killing spree that left three school children and three school staffers dead before she was shot by police.

Bachmann told Inside Edition Hale appeared to be searching for Scruggs in surveillance footage police have since released.

The video shows a heavily-armed Hale looking around as she stalked through empty hallways.

“If she had found Chad, if she had tried to kill him, maybe she would have left the daughter alone,” Bachmann speculated.

The reason why Scruggs was counseling Hale and how long he had been coaching her has not been revealed.

Prior to the attack, Hale sent several messages to a former classmate, telling the woman: “I’m planning to die today … You’ll probably hear about me on the news.”

I really wish people would stop calling that thing a woman.

It's true. She was a woman. The Freepers who call her a man are lying.
