One of the meatpuppets just mentioned the way the cops confirmed the notes were from the shooter. The letters would start with five stars at the top of the page.

The speculation is that they represent a popular band in Jamaica called The Five Stars Band or similar names.

Google spat out a few hits under "Five Star Band." Here's a link to an east African paper that mentions the band.

Then I broadened my search and came upon lyrics by the rap group called Killarmy which is essentially the Wu-Tang Clan. Here's a sample:

"To all my Universal Soldier[s]: stay at attention while I strategize an invasion; the mission be assassination, snipers hitting Caucasians with semi-automatic shots heard around the world; my plot is to control the globe and hold the world hostage. . . . see, I got a war plan more deadlier than Hitler; it was all written down in ancient scriptures. . . . lyrical specialist, underworld terrorist. . . . we create a massacre like Texas Chainsaw, blood for blood; keep the unity thick like mud. . . . I pulling out gats, launching deadly attacks"; "Blood for Blood"; Killarmy, Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars, 1997, Wu-Tang Records, Priority Records, The EMI Group.

Here's the lyrics to the song "Five Stars."

I didn't know where else to put this so I put it here. Have at it.
