The FBI previously said the Nov. 20 shooting may have been at least partly inspired by violent, racist ideology based on evidence collected.
Nazi flags and a Schutzstaffel history book were among the items found in the home of the Ohio Walmart shooter who earlier this month wounded four people before killing himself, records show.
The FBI previously said Benjamin Charles Jones, 20, may have been at least partly inspired by violent, racist ideology based on journal writings and other evidence collected after he opened fire at the Beavercreek Walmart on Nov. 20. Details about the writings and other items were not detailed in a statement at the time.
However, court documents now indicate Beavercreek police detectives seized a total of 18 items, including two Nazi flags, the Schutzstaffel — or SS — history book, a shooting complex card, handwritten notes, electronics and a blue folder containing documents, during a search of Jones’ home in Dayton.
The contents of the handwritten notes and the blue folder were not immediately clear Tuesday.
The SS was a paramilitary organization under Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party in Germany during World War II. Schutzstaffel symbols and ideologies have been adopted by white supremacists around the world.
The newly revealed court documents also outline what happened during and following the shooting.
Surveillance video shows Jones exit a 2000 black GMC Sonoma pickup truck, which he left running with the driver’s side door open, at around 8:37 p.m. He was seen walking into Walmart while carrying a rifle, according to court documents.

Mass shooters would have to admit that they’re being pulled around by the balls like Nikki by their addiction. Not heroin like Nikki necessarily, but hate. Hate is addictive and it’s just as useful as heroin for getting junkies to jump whenever they’re told “frog” by TV/their handlers. Cheaper too.
Not gonna lie, I’d be horrified if someone used Operation Mindcrime as their personal manifesto. Then I’d probably stop listening to that album, and that would suck, because it’s a non stop banger.
I like Queensryche! Alas, I don’t own a gun. So, best I could manage would be a squirt gun.

Put piss in it, run to Target.
I’m not trying to excuse that - it’s inexcusable - but my understanding is that the guy had a whole mess of mental instability. I think it’s likely that the Nazi stuff was a symptom of that.

Who said anything about all of these assholes? I was only talking about this specific asshole.

And I wasn’t.
Of course he was a fucking neo-Nazi.
Only after that did you expand to “these assholes.”
How could this be? Nazis just want to exercise free speech and debate!
Of course they were
Why does Schutzstaffel sound like it’s tasty with syrup? It’s not fair.
This is the best summary I could come up with:

Shortly after, the department received “numerous 911 emergency phone calls regarding an individual firing a weapon inside the store,” according to court documents.
At around 8:42 p.m., an officer arrived on scene and found a man matching the suspect’s description with what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
