HALIFAX— New court documents reveal details of how one of the masterminds of a foiled plot to attack a Halifax mall on Valentine’s Day plans to appeal her life sentence. They began an online relationship, sharing a fascination with mass shootings and exchanging explicit intimate photographs, according to court documents. They agreed to post a video of the slayings online to solidify their fame amongst the world’s mass-murderers, the court documents say. “The three fancied themselves to be mass shooters and were inspired by the shootings at Columbine High School,” the appeal documents filed this week said. In court documents, her lawyer, Peter Planetta, called the sentence “crushing,” saying it risks snuffing out any chance of rehabilitation.
