| According to ''Aftonbladet'', Pettersson had visited right-wing extremist groups at social media sites supporting [[Adolf Hitler]] and [[Nazi Germany]]. He had also joined a group on Facebook that wants to stop immigration to Sweden. The Swedish Security Service were called in to investigate these findings. Pettersson had no criminal record and was not a member of any political organisation, but had supported a petition by the Sweden Democrats to initiate a referendum on immigration. He left a handwritten note at his home in which he declared that something had to be done about immigration, and that he did not expect to survive his spree.

| Pettersson graduated from Lichron Teknikgymnasium with a diploma in technology. He lived in an apartment in the neighbourhood of Stavre, but chose to attack the Kronan School in Kronogården, where there are more immigrants; police cited this as more evidence towards his motive. Former classmates described the perpetrator as a lonely person who "lived in his own world" and always dressed in black clothes influenced either by the emo or rock scene.

| Bjørn Ihler, a survivor of Norwegian far-right extremist [[Anders Behring Breivik]]'s terror attacks in 2011, wrote in ''The Guardian'' that in 2013, Pettersson had "liked" a YouTube video of former [[Ku Klux Klan]] leader [[Johnny Lee Clary]] testifying how a positive experience with a black man had caused him to disavow his previously-held beliefs.
