Minneapolis school shooter ID'd as trans woman - while disturbing video shows 'kill Donald Trump' scrawled on gun magazines | 27 Aug 2025 | The deranged gunman who slaughtered two children and injured at least 17 others at a Catholic school in Minneapolis has been identified as a transgender woman -- as disturbing videos posted by the shooter show a handwritten manifesto and "kill Donald Trump" and "for the children" scrawled on gun magazines. Robin Westman, formerly Robert Westman, opened fire through the stained glass windows of a church at the Annunciation Catholic School -- where he attended -- during a celebratory back-to-school Mass filled with children around 8:30 a.m. Wednesday. Just hours before the cowardly massacre, Westman, 23, posted a series of twisted videos on YouTube, which included a manifesto, Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara confirmed at a press conference. In one 20-minute video, Westman flips through the disturbing handwritten manifesto, much of it in Cyrillic.
