Florida yoga studio shooter planned attack for months and had 'lifetime of misogynistic attitudes,' police say


(CNN) In the past three months, investigators have conducted dozens of interviews and reviewed journals, records and electronic files of a gunman who killed two and injured four others at a Florida hot yoga studio. What they found was months of planning and a history of hatred toward women, Tallahassee Police Chief Michael DeLeo said in a Tuesday afternoon news conference. Maura Binkley, 21, and Nancy Van Vessem, 61, were fatally shot when a gunman opened fire on their class at Hot Yoga Tallahassee on November 2. Four others were shot and one pistol-whipped before the gunman fatally shot himself, police said. DeLeo said there is substantial evidence that the gunman, 40-year-old Scott Beierle, "pre-planned this attack" after demonstrating a "lifetime of misogynistic attitudes."
