A motive for the shooting is still under investigation.
Police have said that the shooter previously attended the private Christian school, which teaches preschool through sixth grade. In a car that the shooter drove to the school, police found writings that detailed plans"to commit mass murder." More of such writings were later found in Hale's bedroom, investigators said.
Drake previously said that the shooter wrote a manifesto containing a map of the Covenant School, a drawing of how to enter the campus, and"the assaults that would take place." The manifesto also included the names of several other locations, but Drake declined to say if those places were targets as well.
The Nashville police's homicide unit is leading the investigation into the shooting. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation is reviewing Hale's fatal shooting by police.
