California man apologizes for connection to Wisconsin school shooting without detailing his actions
A California man apologized for his connection to a 15-year-old girl who fatally shot a teacher and fellow student at a religious school in Wisconsin, telling a judge that he was prepared to accept the consequences of his actions without explaining his precise role.
Authorities have said he told FBI agents that he had been messaging Natalie Rupnow, the Wisconsin shooter, about attacking a government building with a gun and explosives.
A California judge issued a restraining order against Paffendorf under the state's gun red flag law, requiring him to turn his guns and ammunition into police.
The FBI expects the investigation into Paffendorf to conclude within two to three months, but he has not been charged with any crime.
