2007 Frank Fechteler 2007 CT Newington High School Attack Plot In Connecticut police charged a 17-year-old Newington High School student junior Frank Fechtele with two felony counts of manufacturing bombs in connection with a school violence plot. Investigators say that they learned Fechteler was planning to attack classmates after they saw videos he posted on YouTube shooting tactical rifles at an outdoor range in Glastonbury and setting off homemade pipe bombs with a friend. He was suspected of plotting a Columbine-style massacre at the school and kept a hit list with at least 20 names of potential victims in a red folder in his bedroom. An attack was planned for April 10 using a semiautomatic rifle or a shotgun to target ``people that had been picking on him for a long time,' an arrest affidavit said. He also planned to use Molotov cocktails, 10 shrapnel pipe bombs, propane bombs and a car bomb.

More information has been released about the plot to attack Newington High School in Connecticut and the suspect Frank Fechteler.
First let’s discuss his arsenal.
Police reports state three of the five videos displayed a male later identified as Fechteler firing long guns at a range. The videos are labeled Mosin Nagant, Mossberg 500 rapid fire and Saiga .223.
During the interview, he admitted to the plot in writing and also told the school resource officer he had “made more than 40 pipe bombs including CO2 bombs, copper pipe bombs, small pipe bombs with end caps, dry ice bombs and cherry bombs.” He told the officer they were made in his basement using gun powder from ammunition and materials such as copper, which were obtained while digging through local dumpsters.
The affidavit said Fechteler’s parents, William and Soon Doek Fechteler, met with the principal and school resource officer and agreed to let the Newington Police Department search and seize any firearms at their Stoddard Avenue residence.
During the investigation, detectives uncovered three long guns which included a Mossberg 500 12 gauge pump shotgun, a Moisin Nagant 7.62 mm bolt action rifle and a Russian American Armory Company Saiga semi-auto .223 caliber rifle, all which were registered to his father William Fechteler.
Police reports submitted in the affidavit stated the search also revealed Fechteler to be in possession of numerous empty shell casings, loose bullet heads and primers, bird shot, pieces of gray, used duct tape similar to that recovered from the blast site and materials to make a “drano bomb.”
His room also held hand-written instructions on how to create the “drano bomb,” as well as a variety of computer printouts with directions for the construction of a generic bomb, mailbox bomb, Soliodox bomb and unstable explosives. The printouts also contained an ingredient list for 19 different types of dynamite and chemical equivalency list.
Dumbass is lucky he didn’t blow himself up. And I wonder if dear old Dad knew that Junior was taking his guns out to the woods with his dumbass teenage buddies.
Let’s not forget motive. I previously stated that the plot might have been racially motivated because he wrote each proposed victim’s race next to their name on his hit list. It seems that Fechteler is just another clone.

...Police say the [video]shooter is 16-year-old Frank Fechteler, a Newington High School junior whom they suspect of plotting a Columbine-style massacre at the school and keeping a hit list with at least 20 names of potential victims in a red folder in his bedroom.
According to court documents made public Thursday, Fechteler told investigators that he planned the attack for April 10.
