Newly released court documents reveal the boy who allegedly plotted a terror attack at a Queensland primary school asked AI to craft Bondi-massacre style stories.
The 13-year-old Maryborough teen, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was charged over an alleged terror plot planned for Albert State School in Maryborough in early June, with his bail release rejected by Maryborough Magistrates Court on June 17.
At an appeal of the decision before the Supreme Court, the court was told the boy had used AI to concoct sick and terrifying massacre fantasies on multiple occasions.
“Make me a mass shooting story 18+ kinda like the Bondi Beach shooting but it’s in Qld heavybay (sic) beach when there is a Jewish and blacks festival,” the court was told the boy wrote in April this year.
“The mc (main character) shooter is Romolus Vanguard, 19, immigrant from Europe.
“(He is a) legal immigrant, moved when he was 11-years-old, he is from sebira (sic), dark messy hair, good looking, sharp jawline, tall and skinny like Vladislav Roslyakov.
“He uses a sp-15-tac due to gun laws, his (sic) limited … some more with hunting knife.
“The POVs are just normal Australians on the beach … he also is neo-Nazi.”
SOCIAL MEDIA BAN
In the prompt, the 13-year-old referred to 18-year-old domestic terrorist Vladislav Roslyakov, who killed 19 students at his polytechnic college in Kerch, Crimea before shooting himself.
The details of the alleged AI prompts alongside other horrifying allegations voiced at the appeal were revealed in court documents published on July 8.
In the documents, it was noted the boy had allegedly generated a note called “The Albert Massacre”, seemingly referring to the primary school he was accused of trying to target.
In a “manifesto” dated May 17, 2026, the boy allegedly described a “feeling to commit a big attack on kids”.
“They are pathetic I might be 13 at this time, but when I’m 18 they will see my wrath,” part of the note read.
The manifesto included many expletive and intense descriptions of hatred towards children, black people and police.
“I f**king hate them dam pigs, I will kill you pigs,” it read.

The boy first came into contact with police on May 20 when he allegedly threatened occupants at a BP Petrol station on Saltwater Creek Rd in Maryborough, three hours north of Brisbane, with a large knife and dressed in a disguise.
The court was told the manifesto was created only 11 days earlier.
He was cautioned under the Youth Justice Act for one count each of attempting to enter premises with intent, going armed so as to cause fear, making threats and possessing a thing intended for use in connection with an offence.
In the following days, he was arrested and charged with one count each of preparation or planning to cause death or grievous bodily harm and possessing or controlling violent extremist material obtained or accessed using a carriage of service.
The boy allegedly told police he had “wanted to kill people for months” and was inspired by school shooters and mass murderers, including a 2025 Russian school stabber.
Police claimed the boy said children were “easy targets” and he experienced an “adrenaline rush from watching people fear death and killings connected to ideologies”.

A video of the Christchurch massacre was allegedly found on one of his devices.
Police further accused the boy of adopting neo-Nazi, white supremacy beliefs, claiming he told officers he attempted to access illegal weapons on the dark web.
The boy also allegedly bragged about his caution in an online chat group.
“I got arrested … I had 4 charges … I got out … was running around with a knife … and trying to stab people … I’ll show the report … I was about to do like 30 years in prison … but I’m handsome … so I got let go,” the alleged message read.
Defence barrister Clem van der Weegen argued the boy’s alleged musings were “just dark thoughts”, which were not a crime.
He submitted there was no evidence the boy had communicated his thoughts to others and the boy’s prosecution was duplicitous and an abuse of process.
He argued the offences for which the boy was cautioned in May had “essentially the same” makeup as the pair he was currently facing, leading to issues of double jeopardy.
DISTRICT COURT GENERIC
On July 8, Justice Peter Davis in the Supreme Court upheld the magistrate’s decision to deny bail.
“The proposed bail order provides that the applicant’s address will be his family home,” Justice Davis said.
“It is in this residence that the applicant became a radicalised recluse; he has (allegedly) threatened to assault and kill his mother … (police claim) he has thought about harming his sister by smothering her with a pillow.
“The evidence shows that his mother is scared of the applicant.
Justice Davis described the boy’s alleged behaviour as a clear sign of “mental disorder” with an alleged obsession with mass killings.
“Given what appears to be the unstable nature of the applicant’s mental state, the risk cannot be mitigated to a satisfactory level,” he said.
He added any argument of double jeopardy would need to be dealt with as part of the proceedings.
The application to review the decision to deny bail was dismissed.
The boy remains under the care of Children’s Hospital staff in Brisbane pursuant to the Mental Health Act.
