The shooter had laid out plans to attack five areas of the school and wrote on his arm in permanent marker “Alea iacta est” which means “a die has been cast” in English.
Pierson died of his injuries after he shot himself in the school’s library. Claire Davis, 17, was shot by Pierson and remains in a coma in critical condition.
