Perry Hall Shooting Suspect’s Bail Review Postponed; Police Checking Social Media Posts

TOWSON, Md. (WJZ) Fifteen-year-old Robert Gladden remains behind bars. He is charged as an adult with attempted first-degree murder in the Perry Hall school shooting.

Mike Hellgren has more.

A judge was supposed to decide whether any bail was appropriate in this case but the States Attorney tells WJZ Gladden remains in a medical facility. He has undergone extensive mental evaluations.

A troubling picture is emerging of Gladden charged as an adult with attempted first-degree murder for shooting his classmate at Perry Hall High school Monday.

His lawyer says he was relentlessly bullied and only brought the weapon to school to intimidate those bullies and fired accidentally.

On his Facebook page, he had listed as his occupation as murder/suicide, Susan Ehatt of Perry Hall said. What 15-year-old do you know wants to kills himself and others. We need to give this kid support.

A posting on the page said: First day of school, last day of my life. [Expletive] the world.

Police say they are checking social media to see what, if anything, anyone knew about the suspects plans.

They add that Gladden planned the violence taking the gun from his fathers home.
