San Juan County Sheriff's Office identified the victims as Francisco Fernandez and Casey Jordan-Marquez (pictured above). RIP.
Officials say Atchison carried out shooting with a Glock 9mm he had legally purchased last month. He carried it into the school in a backpack and ambushed Fernandez in the bathroom. Then, he shot Jordan-Marquez in the hallway.
He tried to shoot a computer lab full of students after that, but a quick-thinking 74-year-old substitue teacher had the students shelter-in-place and barricaded the door with a couch.
Atchinson then turned the gun on himself and blew his fucked-up brains out.
He left behind a thumb drive with a manifesto, saying that he was planning to take a class hostage and 'go apeshit,' then commit suicide.
The FBI investigated Atchinson in March 2016 after he'd made comments about mass shootings on an online gaming forum.
The FBI cleared him because he told them he just liked to troll and they didn't find any evidence of a crime during their investigation. Atchinson had no criminal record.
