There's a lot to unpack there.
So her parents were religious. One article says the parents didn't accept that "she" was homosexual. The other article said the parents couldn't accept that "she" was transgender. Yet those same parents still allowed her to live at home. But, as so often these days, I am confused. How does this work?
She (Audrey) was born female. So if a female prefers to engage in sexual relations with other females, that's homosexuality. Check.
But Audrey had decided that she was a he, and adopted the name of Aiden. So what is a "normal" relationship for a transgender "male"? If "he" becomes sexually involved with females, is that homosexuality or is it (cough, cough) heterosexuality? If "he" becomes involved with a genuine biological male, is it homosexuality?
And what is it if a transgender male becomes sexually involved with a transgender female?
The NZ article reported that she/he/it wanted to die. Fine. He/she/it had firearms and could have just killed itself, but that wouldn't have made a STATEMENT. No -- it had to kill other, innocent people.
I wish we could know more about exactly what she as being treated for, and what the attitude and approach of the mental health professional (psychiatrist? psychologist? MSW?) was toward whatever her problems were. It appears that, at 28 years of age, she had only recently come out as transgender. I'm way out on a limb here, but I'm going to guess that if the authorities probe deep enough, they'll learn that she was groomed at the art school she was attending.
