On March 27, Hale, a former student at the private Christian school, launched an attack on the campus, killing three 9-year-old students and three adults, police alleged. Hale used a legally purchased AR-15-style rifle and another gun in the rampage, firing 152 rounds in 14 minutes before being fatally shot by a police officer, officials said.

The collective writings were reviewed by Nashville detectives and the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit in Quantico, Virginia. "The parents see no good that can come from the release and wish to contend that the writings -- which they believe are the dangerous and harmful writings of a mentally-damaged person -- should not be released at all," the brief argues.
