1. Raw Story is always stealing other people's reporting to generate clicks

2. The killer has not been identified publicly yet - so it might not be the BF or even related to that situation

But this Raw Story article is a paraphrase of the Washington Post article on the killings.

Is there a local source that positively IDs the killer as being the boyfriend? It appears to be the most likely scenario, but I have not seen any source that has provided evidence of that being the case.

Definitely seems likely that the killer is the boyfriend, although, I would note that this article also says: "The shooter’s identity has not be released due to his age."

There's also a forum site, where he may have been posting some of his Nazi slime..

survived and the daughter returned to the house with him when he did the shooting so she is probably going down the Nazi ideology path too Imagine witnessing your child becoming that as you are killed . Horrible . Under age where did he get the gun to kill?

"The two teens had been dating since June. The family became concerned when their daughter began to parrot pro-Nazi talking points like blaming Europe’s Jewish...."

She was a good person who did something. She knew how dangerous that thug was and she didn't run and hide
