A Denver man has been jailed after he posted ‘mass shooting’ threats on Facebook saying he wants to kill women because he is not able to get a girlfriend.
The 27-year-old Christopher Cleary posted a violent and threatening post on his Facebook handle saying he will kill as many girls as he sees since women kept turning him down and he wasn't able to find a girlfriend, according to police.
Cleary was arrested in Provo, Utah after he posted apparently terrorizing warning on Facebook on Saturday.
His post allegedly read - “All I wanted was a girlfriend, not 1000 not a bunch of hoes, not money none of that. All I wanted was to be loved, yet no one cares about me.”
He went ahead to pour in details by saying, “I’m 27 years old and I’ve never had a girlfriend before and I’m still a virgin, this is why I’m planning on shooting up a public place soon and being the next mass shooter cause I’m ready to die and all the girls the (sic) turned me down is going to make it right by killing as many girls as I see.”
He also wrote: “There is nothing more dangerous than a man ready to die,” according to arrest records as reported by ABC News.
