Robin Westman



The ‘fourth’ mass shooting in Minneapolis area in just 24 hours was planned and orchestrated by Robin Westman. (for more info on the other deadly shootings, click here)

While all the recent public shootings with rapid fire rifles ended in fatalities of innocent bystanders in public locations, none of them really qualified for the term ‘mass shootings’ as they need to have 4 fatalities or more to fit in that category. Thankfully, none of the recent shootings met that quota, even though they intended more deaths, and they won’t be added to the mass shooters database created by the The Violence Project.

Out of all of them, the Robin Westman attack (shooting #4) is the only one that made ‘national’ news headlines. And that is the one we will cover here.

In a senseless and violent attack on unsuspecting children praying in mass, just 7 minutes into the service, two children were murdered, and 18 others injured.

Hundreds more traumatized by the sinister event they witnessed.

Here we unravel, and take you step by step, to visualize what was going through the mind of the Robin W. Westman as he laid out his plans of destruction, in his bedroom, for the world to see.

Who was Robin W. Westman?

Robin was a fairly normal child by today’s ‘accepted’ standards. He comes from a ‘normal’ American family where he had a good life, and was loved and supported by them.

The story is about a boy, or about a girl… who isn’t much different than thousands of other young impressionable children being led by a twisted society full of disturbing alternate realities and idolism of those least deserving.

These types of horrific actions are becoming normalized in a society that is so self-absorbed, overworked, underpaid, and stressed out from just obtaining basic necessities for survival, that we barely blink when another massacre happens.

It’s just another day in America. That needs to change!

But how do we change a situation that we don’t even know the root cause?

People are quick to blame the guns and try to take away citizen’s 2nd amendment rights, which is a direct attack on our countries constitution that thousands died to allow us that freedom.

The fact is, the gun didn’t pull the trigger. A man did.

The gun itself is just an ‘object’ that is useless without a handler, therefore it cannot responsible for the attack. The gun isn’t the problem, the person is. A mentally disturbed one. But what caused his mental distortions? This is what we will delve into.

Let’s start with what we do know.

BORN: Robert Paul Westman (Bob), a transgender man who legally changed his name to Robin W. Westman.

Age: 23  

Dob: June 17, 2002

Dod: August 27, 2025 / Death by self-inflicted gunshot. Unsure which weapon he used. He was found dressed in black “tactical” gear with at least two firearms nearby. link

Address:   3 locations were searched and evidence was collected at all of them

#1 A quaint Tudor-style house where the suspect’s father lived in West Diamond Lake area on 1st Ave S.
Police seized a Condor tactical vest with ‘various attachments not related to law enforcement/security,’ from the home. Officers also recovered two external media storage devices and a collection of documents. link

A man who lives across the street from Jim described the Westman family as ‘good neighbors’. The neighbor said he would often cross paths with Jim and Robin’s stepmother, noting how they would ‘say hello to each other’ and share quick chats. He claimed Jim once shared landscaping rocks with him and that the Westman children frequented the house regularly.

#2 An apartment at Lynwood Commons Apartments complex in Richfield. Neighbors reported Westman appeared to be a “typical tenant” and that another woman may have been living in the unit. I presume this is his ex-partner ‘Abbey’, mentioned in his journals. According to those writings, she knew of his recent gun purchases and many have been why they broke up and he moved out. Did she know of his intentions too? link

#3 At the time of the assault, Robin was staying with another older friend in St. Louis Park. link  link

#4 His mother lives in a condo in building 608 in the Brookshire Lakes neighborhood East Naples, FL. She has resided in Florida as of 2022. Public records show she has another property under her name in Minneapolis. link

Family and Personal Life

Parents:   

Mary Grace Westman (67) and James Allen Westman (62), who divorced after 25 years of marriage in 2013, according to court records.

His mother Mary, a devout conservative Christian, who advocated for pro-life, had retired from her 5 year secretarial position at that school in 2021.

“She has provided such wonderful hospitality, friendship and compassion to all who gathered for the last five years at Annunciation. You will be missed! Congratulations on your retirement!” the church wrote at the time in a post that no longer appears to be available. – link

Much of the blame and anger over Robin’s heinous act (including by Robin himself) has been placed in the lap of Mary Grace Westman because she signed Robert’s name change papers. Even though she was not in approval of his transition, as will be revealed in his journals below, “he resented her for it.” link.


His father, James Westman (Jim), a liberal who supported Robin’s transition to a female, has worked for Esri for 29 years. A company that creates geographic information system software, according to his now-deleted LinkedIn profile. ERSI has government contracts with the CIA, and DOD. link  link

Siblings:

According to most mainstream news reportings that say he was the youngest of three. Robin himself names a bunch of family in his suicide letter :
Dad, mom, Jack, Martha, Theresa, Joe. Jared is brother in law. Phil, Liam are two people he considers his best friends.

We know that Theresa is his sister as she was identified in image with her mom as a child. He mentions Theresa and Joe often in his journals. He never mentions Martha by name.

There was also another child, Faryl Amadeus (44), that was given up for adoption in Kentucky when Mary was a child. “My birth mother, who appears in the film, found me in 2005 and we later reunited with my bio dad in 2012,” Amadeus told Nerd Daily in 2021. “The emotional mystery of adoption could fuel countless stories. I LOVE being adopted. It’s strange and sad and wonderful.” “My birth mom was so generous with this project. She lent me photographs of herself, she flew during the pandemic to film. We have a very special connection.” In 2005, after meeting my birth mom, I traveled to Minnesota to meet my FIVE half siblings.” Not sure who the other 2 ‘siblings’ are that she mentions here.

Relationship:  

Robin Westman had recently been living in the nearby suburb of Richfield, but had broken up with his girlfriend named Abigail Bodick (Abbey). He moved out in the weeks prior to the attack and was staying with a friend Phil in neighboring St. Louis Park, according to the search warrant. link link

Robin talks a lot about Abbey and her dysfunctional family in his journals. And not in a good way.


(p7Blue) – “Abbey, you disgust me. You seriously make me sick to my stomach. As soon as you wake up, you are talking about sex and your pussy and giving me sex while (?) favors. I hate sex! Freak ass, sex obsessed her! I hate you so much!”
(p12Blue) – “God, I hate being home. It’s so sad and depressing here. As soon as I get home, I feel my mood get sad and my feelings of hatred and homicide increase tenfold. I need to get out of here but Abbey will be sad if I don’t hang out with them. I don’t give a fuck if Abbey is feeling sad, I just don’t want them bringing the mood down.”
(p25-26Blue) – “God, I am so sick of Abbey. Today they broke down crying and I had to console them by sitting there with them and pretending to care. I barely was able to pay enough attention to hear what they were saying so I could respond and keep up the charade. I fucking realized I don’t need to shoot Abbey to kill them! If I wanted to, before the attack, I could sneak-attack them with a knife! It would be so satisfying to tell them that I am about to do a mass shooting as I stab them. I would love to see the look of horror on their face as the life drains from their eyes. It’s still risky as I could get blood on me and get stopped on my way. Still risky but definitely possible! I will see how I feel on the actual day. It is so awkward in my home. I am so uncomfortable in my home! I hate being around this sad fuck. I want to be at metro, looking at guns! Not here, pretending to care. As I sit here. In silence with Abbey. Snivelling on my arm. I am in so much pain.” (It is noticed that he uses they/them pronouns for Abbey, even though she is a girl.)
(p27Blue) – “I was talking with Abbey about our journals and they were saying they don’t feel bad about spelling, grammar or their bad handwriting because they don’t expect anyone to read it. In my head I was like [incomprehensible big letters] bro! That’s like… The main reason I have my journal! I am expecting a LOT of people to read this. Abbey was talking about being depressed and feeling crazy. I was barely able to hold it together. They have no idea. I have gone crazy. I am at the end of my rope. I can’t offer any help or consolation because I am in the same exact boat, except I have chosen my path, I have given up on it all. My solution to this suffering is to kill myself and do whatever the fuck I want before. Unfortunately, for you, pieces of shit, my deepest, darkest desire is to shoot and kill as many of you, faggots as I can. Fuck you all.”
(p29-30Blue) – “Abbey’s family are stupid freaks… Can’t open a pop can with your fake nails, can’t make it in the real world. I wouldn’t either, haha, but at least I can admit that and give up instead of making other people uncomfortable your whole life. Kill yourself, before I do it first.”
(p32Blue) – “I really don’t want Abbey’s family to become my own. Trailer park trash.”
(p41Blue) – “Abbey is a whiny, ungrateful bitch. I really need to get out of this situation. The Bodick family is full of bratty, rude, trailer park white trash. No manners, no courtesy. I wish I never met Abbey.”
(p42Blue) – “I hope I kill myself before Abbey gets their ears stretched to big. Giant ears are disgusting to me. Most piercings are.”
(p44Blue) -“Abbey, when you get even a little upset, you turn into an insufferable, grade-A bitch to everyone else with zero apology for your behavior. It puts me in a very uncomfortable position. You are so unpredictable I just don’t want to talk to you. One minute you are whining and upset, the next you are happy and acting like nothing was wrong. I am still hurt and uneasy and you just get away with it because you were “just really tired and flustered”.
(p45Blue) “Fuck you! Then I make a joke and you are back to being a mood crusher. Soul sucking! Your family reminds me of why some innocent people have to die. You fuckers are not criminals or bad people, it’s just that sometimes people like you need to die so you don’t breed. We need less of whatever your mom brought into the world.”

Mental Illness:

What the authorities have said: “Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara stated that there was no information about the shooter’s previous mental illness or any history of confinement for mental health issues. Westman was never confined for mental illness. O’Hara also confirmed there was no indication the shooter took SSRIs, or other related medications.” link

But was Robin Westman mentally ill?

It’s hard to believe NO ONE ever saw the signs.

Did he keep all of his thoughts so guarded that NO ONE was aware at all?

Let’s explore this… had people been aware, could this atrocity been avoided?

Animal Abuse: Robin talked about animal abuse in his private journals. He calls them ideations, and fantasies. There is no evidence of animal cruelty.
There is a significant correlation between acts of cruelty to animals as a child and serious, recurrent aggression towards people as an adult.

(p22-25Blue) – “Put a hamster in a sock. And beat you to death with it. Should I reveal my ideations of torture? Idk. I have revealed myself so much already. Let’s flip a coin. Hmm, okay… I hate dogs. Stupid dogs! In particular, small crusty white dogs. Big dogs and some small dogs can be tolerable, but for the most part, I want to stomp on them! I have had fantasies for a while, since before I even knew of mass shooters. I have thought long and hard about what I should do to a dog if I was able to kill one in secret. I probable first superglue its mouth shut so it can’t bite and to shut up its barking. I would then want to do some psychological torture before killing. I want to pretend to hit it, then accurately hit it, repeatedly so it never knows when it will get hit. I would pop balloons in its face and spray it with a hose. I would probably suspend it from a chest harness like a fucking pinata! I would shine a strobe light in its eyes while I scream at it. I would then drop a little hot sauce in its’ eyes and nose. Not enough to blind, just for fun! All this time I would be punching and hitting the dog. I would next have a fun time shooting it with various airsoft guns! How fun! Then if it can still see, I will force it to watch Joe Rogan. Then once it has dried off, I would douse it in lighter fluid, then set it on fire. If I see it get close to death, I will extinguish it, give it a quick biting, then if I was done, I would swing him in circles by the rope, slamming it into a wall as hard as I can, until it dies. There are much more things I could do and I like thinking about different combos, haha! I want to chain a dog to the bottom of a pool as I slowly fill up the pool. I would piss and jizz in the pool not because I think the dog would notice it and definitely not for sexual purpose. Simply for the disrespect, fuck that nigga, lol! I also fantasize about torturing rats and hamsters. I want to take them down and burn them with fireworks and blow torches. I have seen videos of similar subject and they wait then thrash and wrap them around, struggling against the restraints. I don’t seem to have any interest in doing any of that to humans. I feel like if I am going to go that far and act on my urges, I would just do what I really want to do and go commit a mass shooting!”
(p44Blue) – “Snoop is a good dog, I would still boot him clear across the yard, haha.”

Medications:

(p35Blue) – “I should maybe look into some amphetamines or something to give me energy, calm my nerves, and make me a little more insane, and not care about faces and screams. I wonder what James Holmes took. I am not an insane killer. I am sane, calm and calculated man. I couldn’t stop thinking about bursting into that church and opening fire! I could do so much damage and death to those people.

Eating Disorder:
(p22Blue) – “My appetite has always been pure, but lately it has been really, really little… I have an eating disorder for sure.”

LGBTQ: He also seemed to have anger towards his own transgender community and wants to use them for target practice.

(p42-43Blue) – “I think an Anita Velveeta show could be a great target. She often plays at house shows that are small, air venues with zero security! There is this one house venue in Minneapolis called “Dogpark”. It could be a great target. There is a backyard where some people will hang out and between sets or for other outdoor events, there could be anywhere from forty to a hundred people crowded there. The backyard is fenced but not gated and the entrance is right next to the street, so I would be able to park my one right next to the entrance, get kitted up, then hop out and pretty much instantly I will be in view of all my targets. The other exit is also blocked by random trash with people would be totally cornered by me. Also since there is a fence, I would be more hidden from any bystanders that may call the cops earlier than I want. It’s possible, though, that this is the type of place to have trans people that are packing. Usually, when a tranny says they are packing, it means they have a fake penis, lol! But this might be a “so radically left they went right” kinda place and there might be armed trans girls.
(p54Blue) – “I am really liking the idea of Dog Park as a target due to its unsecured yard and closeness to the street. I just wish it was a gun-free zone for my own safety. How ironic! Lmao. It’s not really about who I am attacking, but I do hate those dog freaks. The world would benefit from this attack, those sex (?? hard to read, says ‘leks’) pests are horrible. I just honestly wish it was a more innocent targets. Not enough kids or wholesome family people are going to be at DogPark… Where do I find a family-friendly event, that is a gun-free zone, and has really easy access to a crowd and ambush spot? I mean… I think dogpark might actually have a good number of underage people. Another reason why I should shoot it up.”

Mental Illness: While he may never have been committed in a hospital setting, did Robin ever publicly display, or exhibit signs of a aggressive psychopathic disorder, or other concerns prior to assault?

(p31Blue) – “I can’t wait to kill. I need to release my fury on the world. You will be punished. I am not human. I was. I have been replaced by Satan! I am your nightmare! I am the harbinger of destruction. Not of homes of property, but of lives and families.”
(p32Blue) – “I want to kill. I don’t even need to convince myself into believing. I fucking love thinking about killing. I want to make an old man fall and crumple to the floor. World War Three! I am here. Terror and death is my duty, I want to die and take you with me! I don’t want to go to this wedding. I am going to be thinking of shooting the place up. Hard to resist thinking about that when I am in or near a crowd.”
(p37-39Blue) – I did it all to myself. I started vaping and I sought out those gory videos and did my own research in mass murder. I am self-radicalized. I love you, my family, but I am already gone. I am drifting away from you. I am an empty shell. I will do what I want. For years, I have been repressing my thoughts for everyone else’s’ sake, and I am done. I want to be the hand of death. It reaches out to all of us, to offer its’s scythe. Many refuse to take it, many do. There are those who take it and even impress death itself. People like Lanza or Paddock or Tarrant. I wish to wield the scythe of death. I will reap a bountiful harvest. I wish to take part in the Universe. Help bring about an inevitable event. These attacks will always happen. I think they should be harder to do by having more gun rules, better rules. If I live in the time when I can get guns very easily, then I will do it! All the stars are lining up. It all makes sense to me. If I can also maybe help stop or reduce these shootings, I can bring attention to it by perpetuating these horrible events. And so I call on others to do the same. My face will be in the news. My life will be dissected on YouTube. Future me’s will be inspired, and the cycle fucking continues. Unless the media wants to do its part and make a change. Don’t show my face, don’t make hour-long documentaries on me. That’s fucking exactly what I want. I want to join the ranks. And kill.
(p40Blue) – “…I need a sponsor. I am so fucked up. I am sick in the head. I am pure evil. No, I am not evil, maybe. Idk, I am just a dark person. I will carry out my plan, though. I am not sure what went wrong. My family did a great job, as best they could. They never really encouraged my gun interest, they taught me empathy and love, and I have those things, but I am defeated by cancer, ready to give up, and the feeling of hate, murder and twisted self-pleasure are stronger. I have no one to tell me to not do it on purpose. I can’t be saved anyway. “We had no idea was planning this!”. Yeah, yeah. No one did. I made damn well sure, kinda, lol!
(p45Blue) – “Man, I love lying to people about my plans, haha. I be talking to people about guns and acting all concerned and normal. I will say things like, you know, it’s a really scary world, things are getting a lil’ concerning [sad face]. “There is a lot of hate in our country right now!” It’s a difference when I talk about why I want a gun. Of course you know I am that thing to fear in the nation. I am that hate that is festering in the world. Seems to be a good way to get people to dispel any … inkling of suspicion about me. That also means I lie about doing well mentally. I am NOT! I would like mental help, I guess…,
(p47Blue) – “I am gonna go to my brother Joe’s house and shoot guns with him! Yahuuu! O, by the way, to the investigators, my family had NO idea of my plans. They have zero fault for using guns with me or giving me information. I have always been interested and they know that’s normal for me. They had no unlawful involvement with my acquisition of guns. They had zero knowledge of my intentions. I am very good at hiding and deceiving people. I am a methodical person. A crafty killer! Heart full of pain, head full of stress, handful of anger held in my chest. But nobody is listening.”

Self Loathing:

(p33Blue) – “I hate my face, I hate when I see it. I don’t want to be seen. I really want the ballistic face shield. That thing is the perfect embodiment of how I want to appear. Scary, blank, dark, uncaring void. That’s me.
(p48Blue) -” I look like an ogre. I want to be the black mask. Hollow face. That’s how you will view me when I am gone. I am a dark, evil void. I wish I could live my life in a mask. I don’t know how this all got started. But I can tell you exactly how it will end!”

Suicidal: Robin repeatedly thought about killing himself and had been planning to do so for a while. We don’t know if his friends, or family, were aware of his mental state. We do have mention of a teacher who mentioned him ‘cutting’ himself.

(p20Blue) – “God, I just want to get this over with. I watched the Ricardo López video last night in full. I feel very inspired to do the same. I can’t wait to blow my head off. I really liked seeing López mouth hang open after he shot himself. He looks so happy and at peace. I want to hurry up and kill myself. I am so mad. I might have to wait for over a month to get my damn shotgun… It’s hard to care about anything but death anymore.”
(p30Blue) – “I would like to lay my head to rest. I AM GOING TO KILL SO MANY PEOPLE! I AM INSANE! I AM RADICAL. I AM THE BODY OF DEATH. I AM THE SON OF GOD’S WHORE. I will return to hell. Every child deserves a parent, but not all parents deserve children. If the universe sees fit, it will be my responsibility, and my honor, to rip them away from each other.”
(p36Blue) – “…even though that was a gun-free avenue, because of the area, I bet they had guns anyway. Pick a liberal location that is a gun free zone. I was imitating what a full auto gun mounted on one of the many interior windows, aimed right at the head level. I would start shooting far away from the door, then as I strafe across the room, people will be feeling toward the main entrance/exist. There will be a nice cluster of faggots to mow down. I am so close to death. I feel iffy on whether or not I want to kill people. I do know I want to end my life, I think of the last things I want to do before I die. It’s game over, do what you want. Let yourself free!”
(p49Blue) – ” I am okay with dying. I want to carry out my final act on the world. I want my name in the records as the deadliest.

Transgenderism: Is it a mental disorder / mental illness?

According to biology of ‘all’ mammals, there is only two sexes. Male and Female.

What is the biological difference between a man and a woman? Seems in much of society today, a lot of the public have trouble answering that simple question. ‘What is a Woman‘?

A popular conservative activist, Charlie Kirk, would often ask this question at his events. “What is a woman”? The responses were often absurd, unclear, and really confusing.
Ex#1 Ex#2 Ex#3

This made him very unpopular with liberals who would often give their version of what a woman is. On 9/10/25, A few minutes into the event, Charlie Kirk was answering questions from the audience, including one about mass shootings involving transgender individuals, as Robin had just attacked the school two weeks prior and it was a question occurring across the country.

The exchange unfolded as follows:

  • Audience member: Do you know how many transgender Americans have been mass shooters over the last 10 years?
  • Kirk: Too many.
  • Audience member: Do you know how many mass shooters there have been in America over the last 10 years?
  • Kirk: Counting or not counting gang violence?

Right then, a single shot is heard. And the question is never answered.

Kirk is then seen clutching his neck and collapsing from his chair, with blood gushing from the wound, prompting attendees to panic and flee the scene. He dies at the hospital. Another assassination of an innocent, this time by a deranged man name Tyler Robinson who was caught within 36 hours by FBI. Possible motive: The suspect Robinson’s roommate and romantic partner was transitioning from male to female, according to reports and Charlie was considered an enemy of the LGBTQ supporters as he would ‘ask questions’ relating to the topic of transgenderism in society.

So we ask the question again, ‘what is a woman?’

Chromosomal Sex Determination in Mammals (humans are mammals too) : The two sexes are differentiated as females, who have ovaries and produce eggs, and males, who have testes and produce sperm.

“In mammals, primary sex determination is strictly chromosomal and is not usually influenced by the environment. In most cases, the female is XX and the male is XY. Every individual must have at least one X chromosome. Since the female is XX, each of her eggs has a single X chromosome. The male, being XY, can generate two types of sperm: half bear the X chromosome, half the Y.”

There could be a lot of ‘environmental’ reasons why hormones, and testosterone, are creating imbalances in our young boy and girls and leading to these un-natural changes in their bodies: endorphin disruptors, pollutants, chemicals, food additives, high fructose corn syrup, adjuvants, hormones injected into that animals we eat, in the milk we drink, pesticides on our vegetables, or exposure to multiple of these toxins combined.

We won’t cover that topic here as this is not an attack on transgenderism, but the potential causation of it. It has been noticed in science that females are reaching puberty earlier and developing breasts as early as 6 or 7 years old today; and male sperm counts are in steady decline, up to 50% less than previous generations.

This is a serious issue not being researched enough. The significant and accelerating decline in female and “male reproductive health is considered by some researchers to be a major public health crisis with potentially serious long-term implications for the human species.”

Robin, born as Robert, was a noted transgender, who cited in his manifesto letter, and his journals that he regrets those choices. Did those ‘choices’ play any part in creating the mindset that assassination of innocent children was a positive and acceptable action?


(p9Blue) – “I am sick of my hair, I want to chop it off. I only keep it because it is pretty much my last shred of being trans. I am tired of being trans, I wish I never brain-washed myself. I can’t cut my hair of now as it would be embarrassing defeat, and it might be a concerning change of character that could get me reported. It just always gets in my way. I will probably chop it on the day of the attack.”
(p32-33Blue) – “Fuck, I look really pretty. I like this outfit a lot. O thought I was giving up, but maybe not. I don’t want to dress girly all the times but I guess sometimes I really like it. I know I am not a woman, but I definitely don’t feel like a man… I really like my outfit. I look pretty, smart and modest. I think I want to wear something pretty like this for my shooting. Maybe I can make my own custom tactical and comfy and cute outfit! I hate my face, I hate when I see it. I don’t want to be seen. I really want the ballistic face shield. That thing is the perfect embodiment of how I want to appear. Scary, blank, dark, uncaring void. That’s me.
(p48Blue) -“I don’t know if I am a trans girl. It is undeniable that I like how I look in girl clothes. I like thinking about being a girl. I want to be cute, and sweet, and soft. I am jealous of some people’s natural cuteness. Awake (ref: mass shooter Crimo) had a cute girl outfit. Even when arrested in the cop car, he could be very cute. Not me though. I look like an ogre.

According to court documents, Westman’s mother applied for a name change when Robert was 17, on January 15, 2020, giving the reason that he “identifies as a female and wants her name to reflect that identification”. 

There is some reporting now stating that his mother, who is very conservative, was originally against it, but was pressured to go along. This is also stated in his journals that you will read excerpts from below.

According to reporting by Andy Ngo, “I spoke to someone who knows the family…. According to this source, it was James (Jim) Allen Westman — not Mary Grace Westman — who was the most affirming of Robert’s (Robin) gender dysphoria. Jim is very liberal, as I saw on his social media before he deleted it. Before and after the divorce, the couple’s five children allegedly looked to him for affirmation on choices their mother wouldn’t support. Mary Grace was very conservative and Jim was not,” the source says. She had been involved in pro-life activism and had given birth to many children. “Because of this dynamic, the kids always went behind Mary Grace’s back to Jim for approval of doing things she didn’t approve.”

Was he on antidepressants, or other stimulants?

Personally, I think it’s too early to have ruled any medications out on day one as the police chief did. We have yet to see his toxicology report from the autopsy. As of Feb 17, 2026 they have still not been released. link

Head of HHS, Secretary Kennedy, has recently said they are ‘currently’ doing studies to find out if there is any connection to SSRI’s (antidepressants) and mass shootings that have become so prevalent the last 35 years, beginning in the 1990’s.

There are many of Robin’s mass shooter idols that he names in his videos that were on SSRI’s prior to their homicidal attacks. We will cover this more below in detail.

Due to HIPPA regulations, we do not know if Robin was, or has ever been on any SSRI’s, or other hormonal medication for his gender identity.

(SSRI is short for a class of drugs called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors. The antidepressants increase levels of serotonin, a chemical messenger in the brain that can improve mood. Common versions include Lexapro, Prozac and Zoloft, which treat conditions like depression, anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Many of those have black box warnings that state suicidal and psychotic aggressions and tendencies.)

There are ample collections of case reports that document the syndrome of Akathisia with suicidal and homicidal thoughts and acts, as well as being: agitated, hostile, aggressive, paranoid, mood or behavior changes, unusual thoughts or behavior, unusual risk-taking behavior, decreased inhibitions, no fear of danger, hallucinations, confusion, all while using anti-depressants.

One of Westman’s previous teachers, Sarah Lenore Reely, who once taught at Saint Thomas Academy, posted this to here social media page, and said that she had witnessed evidence of ‘self harm on her arms’. At the time, she knew him as Bob. “I am posting this to remind people that it’s a snowball effect of multiple system failures at a national level, that every murderer was once a kid in someones classroom who needed help, and that this issue is so much deeper and more complicated than we want to admit,” she wrote. The post has since been removed.

Cutting is a form of self harm, and 40–60% of people who commit suicide have previously self-harmed.

Criminal History :

NONE. Minneapolis police said he had no prior criminal history. According to reports, he had only one parking ticket on record.

According to Robin’s journal (pg2-blue), he had a ‘Weed Charge’ at some point when he was a kid and he worried that would affect his background check to purchase a shotgun.

Education:

Robin was a former student of Annunciation (who teaches grades K-7). He was familiar with the school as he had attended for a year and graduated in 2017. Not a lot in known about his schooling except that he went to many of them over the years.

According to his journals, he once was suspended from a school for asking “if there was a school shooting, where would you hide?” But after the student told adults, Westman was suspended from school for a week. It’s unclear what school Westman attended at the time.

“I basically promised I didn’t mean anything,” Westman wrote, adding, “I don’t remember ever talking to a therapist.”

One former classmate told local news station KSTP that the future shooter attended seventh grade at a school in Saint Paul, and recalled disturbing behavior, including Robin praising Hitler. She said he had few friends and some odd obsessions.

He also attended St. Thomas Academy, a Catholic all-boys school in Mendota Heights, a military-like academy where students are referred to as cadets, wear uniform and are trained in military skills. It was one of several schools Westman attended during a seemingly turbulent childhood that included going to one school for just three months at a Minnesota Transitions Charter School, which is dedicated to students who struggle in traditional school environments. link

While there, it has been revealed Robert wrote an ode to death titled ‘But Not The End‘ outlining concerns death would come with ‘regrets that my name not be known for something more’, according to the Star Tribune. That writing has not been located for public viewing.

And the image below says he had planned on attending General Colin L. Powell Leadership Academy in 2018. Not sure if he ever did.

Employment:  

Robin’s last day at work at Rise Dispensary in Eagan was August 16. He had been disciplined for lateness and skipping work. He had only worked there a few months. The co-worker, who asked not to be identified because he did not get permission from the company to speak to the media, said Westman worked as a ‘personal care specialist’ who interacted with patients enrolled in the state’s medical cannabis program. link

Robin was seen on the 23rd, ‘wearing’ the company shirt while buying a revolver at a gun store in St Louis.

Shooting #4 – Details of the Attack

Date of Shooting:  August 27, 2025

Time of Shooting:  Around 8:27 a.m approached his target. The church was filled with around 200 children and parishioners praying inside. The gunfire lasted roughly two minutes and ended when the shooter died by suicide of a self-inflicted gunshot wound in the rear parking lot.

Location of Shooting: Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis, MN, during a morning back-to-school Mass.  map

Unrelated but super eerie, a :30 video on the google map church website has a May 2022 video created by Chandra Prakash, that sounds like he is making ‘automatic rifle noises’ while videoing the church.  I don’t know what he is saying with a smile on his face, but you can watch and listen here. That’s really Creepy!

Victims of Shooting

Victims: 2 children were killed and identified as Fletcher Merkel (8), and Harper Moyski, (10).

21 people injured by gunfire: 18 children between the ages of 6 and 15, 3 adults in their 80s who were attending mass at the time of the shooting. There were over 200 children and parishioners in mass at the time of the shooting.

Several more victims, including 12-year-old Sophie Forchas and 13-year-old Endre Gunter remained in the hospital Saturday in critical condition.

Weapons

Vehicle used: According to NBC, A commercial van — a 2015 Ram ProMaster City — had been parked behind the church with at least one of its rear doors opened and a rifle case visible to officers, according to the search warrant. The vehicle was registered to Westman’s father, James Westman.  link

Firearms: Officials stated that all of the weapons had been purchased legally.

According to Minnesota Star Tribune -Rob Doar, senior vice president of the Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus and a gun-rights advocate identified the weapons in the video manifesto (shown below) as:
● AR-15 rifle, two 30-round magazines with M855 NATO Green Tip ammunition
● Mossberg 590 Cruiser shotgun
● Smith & Wesson M&P compact 9mm handgun with three magazines – Full Metal Jacket rounds
● Revolver that appears to be a Colt 38 Special police issue.
● And numerous other magazines holding anywhere from 20 to 60 rounds.

Other weapons: a 2×4 board was used to block the doors to prevent escape, and 2 smoke bombs, one attached to the board, were noted in his arsenal.


A search warrant for the church ‘after the assault’ said three guns were taken into evidence:
● a Taurus semi-automatic pistol
● a Mossberg pump-action shotgun
● a Magpul semiautomatic rifle.
Police found a wood board with a gas container and a metal pull pin on the ground, according to the search warrant, items that may have been intended to be used as a smoke bomb.
Minneapolis police said Thursday that they had recovered 116 rifle rounds and three shotgun shells from the scene. Search warrant details show that the shooter left four empty magazines from the semiautomatic rifle and had more to spare. Six unused shotgun shells were pulled from that weapon and more were found in a pouch on the shooter’s belt. Investigators also said they collected a knife, green fingerless gloves, black mechanic gloves, headphones and a gray zip-up sweatshirt. link

New Footage shows on 8/23/25, just 5 days before that attack, he purchased the 38 special revolver, not mentioned in search warrants (but shown in manifesto), and presented a valid permit to purchase at Frontiersman Sports. He was wearing ‘RISE’ logo shirt, that said ‘A Place For Well Being’. Supposedly, he was no longer working there as of 8/16.

The shop’s owner, Kory Krause told the outlet that staffers said Westman was “friendly” and “jovial” as he spent 40 minutes browsing a selection of firearms including pistols and a rifle. He interacted with three employees and a customer, and that none of his behavior set off any red flags.

WARNING GRAPHIC CONTENT

Prior to his assault, Robin uploaded four videos to his ROBIN W (@robinw1312) youtube account. (all videos have been censored by youtube, not surprising as they are they kings of censorship). After much searching and doing what I do best, digging for the truth and evidence, I located ALL of the videos in full online.

One thing that is noticed is in the numerals 1312 adjoining his screenname. While the number 1312 can have multiple meanings, it most commonly refers to the acronym “ACAB” (All Cops Are Bastards), with each number representing the alphabetical position of the letters in the English alphabet.  This is just speculation.

Calling this a Senseless Tragedy is an understatement

What causes someone to do something like this? Perhaps in his journal writings, we can try to come to understand the signs and characteristics of a mass shooter. Only in doing so may we learn what to look for in our friends, and in our families in order to prevent another future incident from occurring.

In almost every prior case, the signs were there, but ignored.

Here we will delve into the mind of a tormented soul.

STOP! WARNING! STOP! WARNING! STOP! WARNING! STOP! WARNING! STOP!

Short summary video

This 4 min video is a short summary version of all news coverage thus far relating to Robing Westman’s crime. If you want more details, it continues below.

The Evidence Presented

There were ‘three’ videos upload to youtube on the morning of the attack.

The first video to be made public was was an 11 minute video manifesto titled ‘Robin Westman ehehe’ that show his arsenal laid out on his bed with him handling each piece for the camera. It also included the “suicide letter he wrote to his family in English. We will call this his ‘Manifesto.’

I have reviewed, transcribed, and noted everything by: time @, the text written on the arsenal, and what “he was saying” during the video in bold quotes.
(I included notes, & references in red, with links.)

Video #1 – Manifesto / Suicide Letter

Video Cover Image – Taken from Westmans video, depicts an illustration of a Red-breasted Robin robot with the city buildings burning.
Artist is Unknown, but could be Robin’s own creation. He will use a hand-drawn ‘bird logo’ throughout this video and his written journals.

(Due to consistent and guaranteed social media censorship of this video, I uploaded it directly to my site only.)

Video #2 – Red and Blue Journals – ‘Thanks for all the Fish’

Westman, R. (2025, aug 27). Two Journals. So long, thanks for all the Fish. 20:42.  
(covers: red journal and Blue ‘Wheres the hash’)

The video has been removed from youtube, but the archive shows that title.

According to news reports, the journal had over 200 pages. Not sure we will ever see the full documentation of those released by authorities. All we have are screenshots created from the videos that he uploaded himself.

Portions of this video have been translated by others. I have not personally translated the text of the screenshots with verification. But the context seems to be in line with major news reporting of snippets.

A New Member in the Active Shooter ‘Club’

Throughout all of the evidence he presented, one thing stood out. He had an obsession with other mass shooters, they were his idols. He had favorites like one would have a favorite ice cream flavor.

His idols were: Cruz, Currant, and Crusius

As he said specifically said his favorites in his ‘Red’ journal. Many were named on his arsenal, he names them throughout both his journals. And likely his name will one day be added to the next delusional person who acts without consideration for the trauma he will cause to citizens and society.

In his journal (pg49Blue), he stated “I want my name in the records as the deadliest”.

(pg15-16blue) “I don’t feel bad for victims of attacks at all. It will always happen. It could be me, it could be you, it could be my mother or your daughter, I don’t care, someone has to die! I don’t kill for any ideology or to send any message. I kill for fun and for numbers. I want to kill as many as I can. I want to beat Stephen Paddock’s high score. I also am a fan of Robert Bowers’s kill rate. Every person he shot died! How impressive. Realistically, I don’t think I will top sixteen, but I can sure try. “Gun laws only apply to people who follow laws!”

“Charges were filed late last week against two people connected to the shooting along Clinton Avenue. Ryan Quinn, 33, and Tiffany Martindale, 30, are both charged with aiding an offender to avoid arrest.

Speaking with police, the complaint says Quinn admitted that he and Martindale had picked up a man they know as “Bino” and had driven him around the metro. During the trip, Quinn said “Bino” told them to go to the area of Clinton and 29th.

At the eventual shooting scene, Quinn said “Bino” had them circle the block once. Then, as they pulled up a second time, they said he got out of the car wearing a mask and holding a rifle, and opened fire.

The complaint states that after the shooting, Bino got back into the car and Quinn dropped Bino off on Minneapolis’ northside. 
Police checked Martindale’s phone and say they found numerous calls between her and Bino the day before the shooting.”   link

UPDATE: Trayveion Alvin Green, also known as ‘Bino’, was arrested as September 23 and charged with one count of second-degree murder and six counts of attempted second-degree murder.

Shooting #3

Aug 27 – The third at 2:10 a.m., another shooting occurred at Eighth Street and Hennepin Avenue  Minneapolis Police say the murder of the Rochester man happened in the 800 block of Hennepin Ave,in downtown Minneapolis.

Police said it’s unknown whether these shootings are connected to the first mass shooting. No arrests have been made.

UPDATE: Tyrone De Shun Childs Jr has been arrested. has been charged with murder and robbery in the shooting death of 35-year-old Jermaine Jabaar Typray Barker, also known as “Pooh,” of Rochester.

According to court documents, the shooting happened around 2 a.m. on August 27 near Hennepin Avenue and 8th Street. Barker was allegedly playing dice with a group when Childs approached. Reports say a witness heard Childs say something like “gimme that,” and Barker replied, “you’re gonna have to shoot me.”

Barker was shot 13 times. Prosecutors say surveillance video allegedly shows Childs going through Barker’s pockets after the shooting.

Investigators noted Childs was wearing distinctive clothing, and multiple cameras tracked him walking from the scene to an apartment building where he used a fob to enter.

Court filings also state the FBI Cellular Analysis Survey Team analyzed Childs’ phone and found it had been at locations connected to the case. link

All three events had fatalities. The difference is, none of those got much news coverage.

The question is why? Do all lives not matter?
