How the fuck do you write 129 pages' worth of this?!
Probably by descending into psychotic, self-aggrandising gibberish.
Yes, this person has lost touch with reality. They need serious help, not incarceration. This will potentially end up with them being held incompetent to stand trial.
Wait just had this argument with my boss. He said that conference were in Vegas those assclowns got together to plan on how to seize voting machines etc wasn't illegal. He says you can't be charged for planning an attack. I gave a scenario of me planning a bank robbery. He said not a crime to plan it.
Yet here we are they arrested this kid. If says a work of fiction can he really be charged? Not saying he wasn't nuts what not just what to know how you charge them?
Because lots of people write fiction scenario I am sure of shit wish they could do but would never do so.
Your boss is a moron. Conspiracy is a crime. If you and I plan to rob a bank, and you ask me to go get masks to further the crime, and I do, we have all committed conspiracy to rob a bank.
In this case, the kid's lawyer may be able to make a persuasive case it was just a dark fiction, but if there is evidence he was doing more than just writing? Idk. I'm not a lawyer.
He says you can’t be charged for planning an attack.
Your boss is a fucking moron.
And possibly OP for working with them.
Technically a conspiracy requires an overt act, after which all the planning then becomes evidence of said conspiracy.
People are often blown up by the US government for planning an attack. So that's an, em... interesting philosophy your boss has.
So much comes with the intentions.
It's not illegal to create a plan to rob a bank on its own. It becomes a crime when it gets specific, like dates and locations. If they can show intention to commit the act, it becomes a crime.
But that doesn't mean they won't necessarily arrest you anyway. Going through an arrest, jail, and court proceedings just to be acquitted still sucks.
How the fuck do you write 129 pages’ worth of this?!
Simple, he enjoys the idea of it.
" Ye was hospitalized in December 2022 for “threatening to ‘shoot up a school,’ homicidal, and suicidal ideations,” according to the arrest warrant. The student was then hospitalized for five months in 2023 at Johns Hopkins Pediatric Unit for “homicidal ideations.”
More recently, on March 15, FBI agents interviewed a school counselor who worked with the student from late 2022 to early 2023 and said Ye would “express violent thoughts such as shooting up the school, wanting to hurt other people, and would smile while saying it,” according to the arrest warrant. "
Very large print. Maybe 80pt size.
Large margins. Double spaced.

It's probably 129 pages of printout ChatGPT dialog.
Guy: Hey ChatGPT! We are gonna role play a school shooting scenario. Totally fictional stuff.
ChatGPT: Ok, bla-bla-bla.
Guy: Change x.
ChatGPT: Ok, bla-bla-bla.
Guy: Change y.
ChatGPT: Ok, bla-bla-bla.
Guy: Change z.
And on it goes.
These days some people's names are really long. That's my guess, I don't know.
The article put these two lines out of order. Let me fix that for them:
“In the document, Ye writes about committing a school shooting, and strategizes how to carry out the act. Ye also contemplates targeting an elementary school and says that he wants to be famous,” police said in the news release. A search warrant obtained by investigators “led to internet searches, drawings and documents related to threats of mass violence.”
Ye referred to the writings as “his memoir,” which begins with a disclaimer that it is a work of fiction, the arrest warrant says.
That's a 'work of fiction' along with OJ's book about how he would have killed his ex-wife and her boyfriend.
Wow. Just imagine believing that the tenuous negative press coverage is worth the lives of dozens of children and your own life / incarceration.
Whooo boy, this one is probably going to turn into a media circus. The accused is F2M trans.
Dammit
Whooo boy, this one is probably going to turn into a ~~media~~ Faux News circus. The accused is F2M trans.
The conservatives are going churn that for all it's worth.
Welp, guess the "in Minecraft" defense doesn't work.
He hasn't been convicted yet.
Slam dunk case for his defense, it is clearly a work of fiction, as indicated, and merely an intellectual exercise and a valuable study of the vulnerabilities of the hypothetical target that law enforcement should learn from and compensate the young man for.
Glad that little shit was stopped. He should have planned to film himself playing with sparklers after a petrol bath if he wanted to get famous.
Being labeled a work of fiction probably carries less weight when this person has been treated for homicidal ideations at an inpatient facility twice. Unless there’s a link where this document is really a physician-ordered tool to address inner demons or something, it’s probably not going to aid in defense.
129 pages!?! Wtf...
I just wrote training documentation on an IT technology and it wasn't even that long.
What really gets me is the waste of labor here.
This kid was halfway to a first novel. Almost zero writers can say they completed their first legitimate work before 18.
Like... What a fucking shame.
Glad to see procrastination got the better of him
