'Rotten people': FSU shooter Phoenix Ikner's parents blamed after his deranged campus rampage

The parents of Florida State University alleged shooter Phoenix Ikner were blamed for his deranged outburst at the campus that killed two people and injured many in the latest mass shooting in Tallahassee. Ikner used his mother's gun to spray bullets on the campus, which shocked many, as his mother is a veteran cop, Jessica Ikner, the deputy county sheriff. But Jessica is not his biological mom, his biological mother Anne Mari Eriksen had a bitter custody battle with Phoenix's father during which she 'kidnapped' young Phoenix (he had a different name in his childhood) to Norway for which she lost his custody and the alleged shooter stayed in Florida with his father and stepmother.

Phoenix Ikner's biological grandmother, the mother of Eriksen, slammed the parents for the mass shooting and said they were hateful people, taught him how to hunt.

“They taught him how to hunt, they’re bigoted people, they hated a lot of people,” the 79-year-old grandma told the DailyMail.com at her condo in the Florida capital Friday.

“He was the sweetest kid, smart,” she said while briefly sobbing, before adding, “The rotten bastard people. I have no idea what we’re going to do now, I have no idea.”

Eriksen said she has not seen her grandson in a decade and all her pleas to see him went unanswered by his parents.

Family drama unfolds after FSU shooter identified

As soon as the FSU shooter was identified to be the son of a cop, an unexpected family drama unfolded with Anne Mari Eriksen claiming to be his biological mother. She made some desperate social media posts after the shooting was reported minutes before she came to know that her son was the shooter.

“I’m just as shocked as everybody else … I’m sorry, this is very hard,” Anne Marie told DailyMail. “It’s very upsetting … you just don’t think this is going to happen. There’s a lot of up and down today.”
