Overview

• Transgender teenager William 'Lilly' Whitworth has been sentenced to six years in prison after admitting to plotting mass shootings at three schools in Colorado.
• Whitworth had written a manifesto detailing her plans, which included a list of firearms and instructions on how to 3D print them, information on bomb-making, and a list of people to be killed.
• Her targets included Timberview Middle School, Prairie Hills Elementary, and Pine Creek High School, all located in Colorado Springs.
• Whitworth was arrested in March 2023 after her family called the police, reporting that she was threatening to shoot up a school and was punching holes in the wall.
• Given Whitworth’s transgender status, it is not immediately clear whether she will be sent to a male or female facility.
