Prosecutors Release Body-Cam Footage and Drawings in Lake Brantley Murder-Plot Case

Newly released evidence highlights prosecutors’ case, pointing to an alleged Sandy Hook–inspired motive.

Overview

  • The state attorney’s office published body-camera video showing Altamonte Springs officers arresting two Lake Brantley High School students on campus.
  • Prosecutors also released detailed drawings tied to the investigation that depict a suspect and imagery associated with an idolized gunman.
  • Records obtained by FOX 35 include a note to parents referencing Adam Lanza and, according to deputies, statements about hearing voices and a planned “blood bond.”
  • Investigators say a Jan. 22 FortifyFL tip led school staff to question a student the next morning and recover a 10–12 inch knife, gloves, wipes, and trash bags.
  • Both teens, ages 14 and 15, remain jailed on adult charges including attempted first-degree murder counts, armed burglary, attempted aggravated child abuse with a deadly weapon, weapon possession on school property, and aggravated stalking.
