Putli repeatedly talked about a uniform “Doomsed” attack, claiming the life of 12 students and a teacher in Colorado.
Winter, who had also placed racist and pro -Nazi ideas, accepted two allegations at a hearing in February.
The High Court in Glasgow heard crimes – violations of peace and an allegation under the Terrorism Act – were committed when they were 15 to 16 years of age between June 2022 and July 2023.
Shelagh McCall Casey, while defending, called for a strict option for custody as his customer was a “weak young man” with mental health issues.
But the court was told that Winter was “radical”, which spent more than 1,000 hours in contact with the Nazi online discord group.
The judge said that it seems that Winter was in contact with extremist online group for two hours a day for two years.
Lord Arthurson Told the court The teenager also discussed with fellow students with her “intestine, violent and graphically detailed plan” to fulfill the massacre.
In a journal entry of January 2023, he described his school as a “virus on this earth” and said that he would soon prove that “I am a god”.
Lord Arthurson said: “The entire content available to me indicates that you were reaching the verge of reducing the shooting of a mass school, you were radical and your intention statement could not be clear.”

‘Encouraged’ said about winter columbin
The classmates recalled how the teenager spoke “enthusiastically and with great enthusiasm” when he talked about Colombin and other school shooting.
The witnesses told the police that he was “sympathy” with Colombin’s killers, Eric Harris and Dylan Clabold.
Both Harris, 18, and 17 -year -old Clabold, both took their lives in the school library after the attack.
Winter was also said to be so fascinated by mass shooting that he wanted to change his name in the “Act of Tribute”.
A female disciple told the officials that they planned to start on the second floor and “cleaned it” before continuing the shooting race.
The winter was stopped by the police under the Terrorism Act after returning from holiday with his family on 9 July 2023.
Officials came to know that the school child had a ticket account, which had footage that was wearing black competition as well as a skeletal mask.
When their electronic devices were seized, they were included on the “homemade” firearms and files on poison.

After the sentence, Assistant Chief Constable Stuart Houston said: “It was a very complex and fast -growing investigation, and I want to take this opportunity to pay homage to the officers for the hard work and hard work of the officers who made tireless efforts to gather the evidence and provide justice to the criminal.”
The senior official said that the benefits of working in partnership as part of the prevention program were outlined.
He said that it “promotes initial intervention through analog, diversionary support”.
Edinburgh Council Education Convenor City James Delgish said: “When we are unable to comment on personal matters, we want to assure the public that we have strong security procedures in place.
“We work closely with partnership agencies to ensure the safety and good of all students and employees, and take any case related to violence very seriously.”
