A Texas mother is accused of assisting her son in planning a mass shooting at his middle school, reportedly expressing to police her approval of his “violent expressions.”

As reported in an affidavit by local CBS affiliate KENS, Ashley Pardo, aged 33, was taken into custody on Monday after authorities were alerted to threats allegedly made by her son, who is in middle school. Police noted his interest in “past mass shooters.” The affidavit revealed that a family member, identified by the San Antonio Express-News as the boy’s grandmother, contacted the San Antonio Police Department’s behavioral threat team. She discovered a loaded rifle and pistol magazines at the residence where she and the boy resided.

The grandmother further informed detectives that prior to Pardo arriving to take her son to school, he mentioned his intent to become “famous” and referenced “14 words,” a clear allusion to a notorious white supremacist phrase.

The Express-News also reported that the grandmother found an improvised explosive device in the boy’s room that had a name written on it, as if the device was meant to target that person. She also reportedly found more white supremacist materials.

According to the affidavit, the grandmother told detectives that she had once caught her grandson hitting a live bullet with a hammer, seemingly hoping it would explode. She stopped him and asked him where he got the bullet, and he reportedly replied that his mother gave it to him.
