The FBI admitted on Wednesday night that they received tips last year about the suspect who shot up Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia, on Wednesday, but said that they did not have probable cause to make an arrest.

Authorities arrested a 14-year-old male suspect after four were killed and nine others were wounded during the shooting.

The FBI’s Atlanta field office said in a statement that in May 2023, “the FBI’s National Threat Operations Center received several anonymous tips about online threats to commit a school shooting at an unidentified location and time.”

“The online threats contained photographs of guns,” the statement said. “Within 24 hours, the FBI determined the online post originated in Georgia and the FBI’s Atlanta Field Office referred the information to the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office for action.”

“The Jackson County Sheriffs’ Office located a possible subject, a 13-year-old male, and interviewed him and his father,” the statement continued. “The father stated he had hunting guns in the house, but the subject did not have unsupervised access to them. The subject denied making the threats online. Jackson County alerted local schools for continued monitoring of the subject.”

The FBI said that there was “no probable cause for arrest” and that no additional law enforcement action could be taken by local, state, or federal authorities.

The FBI added in a follow-up to their statement: “To confirm, the subject referred to as the 13 year old is the same subject in custody related to today’s shootings at Apalachee High School.”

The school received a threatening phone call earlier in the day warning that the school would be the first target in a string of shootings aimed at five different schools. State law enforcement officials said that there were no shootings at other schools.

Georgia Bureau of Investigation Director Chris Hosey said that school resource officers confronted the shooter, causing him to immediately surrender and be taken into custody.

Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for president on Wednesday despite her repeated warnings in the past about how dangerous and radical Harris’ ideology is.

Speaking at Duke University, Cheney said: “Because we are here in North Carolina, I think it is crucially important for people to recognize, not only is what I just said about the danger that Trump poses … something that should prevent people from voting for him.”

“I don’t believe that we have the luxury of writing in candidates names, particularly in swing states. And as a conservative, as someone who believes in and cares about the Constitution, I have thought deeply about this,” she added. “And because of the danger that, that Donald Trump poses, not only am I not voting for Donald Trump, but I’ll be voting for Kamala Harris.”

Cheney campaigned hard against Harris in 2020 during the Democrat presidential primary and after then-Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden selected Harris to be his vice presidential running mate.

“Kamala Harris is a radical liberal who would raise taxes, take away guns & health insurance, and explode the size and power of the federal gov’t,” Cheney posted on X. “She wants to recreate America in the image of what’s happening on the streets of Portland & Seattle. We won’t give her the chance.”

Cheney went after Harris for being open to allowing convicted terrorists to vote in U.S. elections, remarks that Harris made during a CNN town hall event.

“Coming soon:⁦ @KamalaHarris⁩ and ⁦@BernieSanders launch their ‘Absentee ballots for al Qaeda’ program,” Cheney posted on X.

Cheney also called out Harris for lying to voters about what her health care plan was.

Amazing to watch how casually @KamalaHarris lies to this Iowa Senior about health care.

Harris wants us to believe she can impose govt takeover of all health care while allowing current Medicare recipients to keep their coverage.

“I’ll promise you that,” she says. #ItsaLie https://t.co/XvjNuvNPLA

Cheney also did segments on cable news attacking Harris, warning that she had the most far-Left record in the U.S. Senate and was a “radical liberal [who] supports dangerous policies that would devastate millions of Americans.”
