The city of Chesapeake, Virginia, on Friday released the "death note" the alleged Walmart gunman had written on his phone at some point before shooting and killing six of his co-workers earlier this week.
"Sorry God I've failed you this was not your fault but my own. I failed to listen to the groans of the holy spirit which made me a poor representation of you," wrote the suspect, 31-year-old Andre Bing. "I was harassed by idiots with low intelligence and a lack of wisdom. I remained strong through most of the torment but my dignity was completely taken away beyond repair by my phone being hacked."
