Authorities in Louisville, Kentucky, have released the manifesto of killer Connor Sturgeon, 25, The Post Millenial website reported Nov. 22.

Sturgeon, who previously worked for a bank, killed four of his former colleagues and a police officer and injured nine others before being killed by police during a shootout.
