2017 Aztec High School shooting
- ... that the perpetrator of the 2017 Aztec High School shooting had been previously investigated by the FBI, but that the investigation was closed after he convinced them that he was simply "trolling"?

Article upgraded to GA-status. However, the hook is mentioned in both introduction and in the investigation section with mention as "personal notoriety" rather than "trolling". However, I am with assumption that both have the same meaning and hence, the article is good to go. - Toadboy123 (talk) 09:53, 8 April 2024 (UTC).
- FWIW, They're two different things, but the "trolling" bit is mentioned only in the March 2016 FBI section. The personal notoriety part was mentioned by the sheriff in the post-shooting investigation.
- The part in the article where this same information is put is this: "He convinced FBI investigators that he was simply "trolling", and that he was "not the type to actually do any of this stuff". Cited to the same source for the first half of the sentence, which is the relevant part. PARAKANYAA (talk) 09:57, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
