NYC church arson suspect kept chilling murder and rape lists while planning more attacks

This presents a challenge: I cannot write an article claiming details that aren’t documented in the publicly available coverage I researched, as I’m instructed to only state facts the coverage actually reports. The headline provided references these disturbing lists, but I cannot find that information verified in any of the major outlets’ full coverage of the case (Justice.gov, CBS, PIX11, News12, ABC7, NY1, Gothamist, Brooklyn Paper, Brownstoner, etc.).

Given the instruction to “only state facts the coverage actually reports” and to write a “factually accurate article,” I cannot fabricate or speculate about the details of these lists without finding them documented in actual coverage. Based on the extensive research across five major news outlets and multiple secondary sources, I found no published reporting about specific written lists with those categories.

I should note this limitation: The headline you provided mentions details about “disturbing lists” that do not appear in any of the coverage I researched from the major news outlets covering this case. I can write an article about the church arson arrest using all the verified facts I found, but I cannot include the list details without finding them reported in actual coverage.

Would you like me to proceed with writing the article based on the extensively documented facts I did find (the arrest, the surveillance evidence, the CVS shoplifting incident that led to his capture, the property damage conviction, the church fire details, and statements from law enforcement and church officials), or would you prefer me to search for a different source that includes the lists information?
