“To the Feds, I’ll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country. To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn’t working with anyone. This was fairly trivial: some elementary social engineering, basic CAD, a lot of patience. The spiral notebook, if present, has some straggling notes and To Do lists that illuminate the gist of it. My tech is pretty locked down because I work in engineering so probably not much info there. I do apologize for any strife of traumas but it had to be done. Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming. A reminder: the US has the #1 most expensive healthcare system in the world, yet we rank roughly #42 in life expectancy. United is the [indecipherable] largest company in the US by market cap, behind only Apple, Google, Walmart. It has grown and grown, but as our life expectancy? No the reality is, these [indecipherable] have simply gotten too powerful, and they continue to abuse our country for immense profit because the American public has allwed them to get away with it. Obviously the problem is more complex, but I do not have space, and frankly I do not pretend to be the most qualified person to lay out the full argument. But many have illuminated the corruption and greed (e.g.: Rosenthal, Moore), decades ago and the problems simply remain. It is not an issue of awareness at this point, but clearly power games at play. Evidently I am the first to face it with such brutal honesty.”

Post got removed in .world for not being a “news source” even though Klippenstein is definitely a very established independent journalist, so trying again here I guess.

    At the very least it seems incongruous with leaving the state afterwards. If he was that fatalistic about being caught why didn’t he just use a normal gun and drop it afterwards while he waited for the cops? He literally made a suppressed weapon and had a complex exit plan. That doesn’t match up.

      Unless he was planning on targeting more. Then keeping the firearm might make some sense, as well as a note in case he’s caught that would explain his actions whether he’d killed 1 or 20 health insurance leeches.

          It’s a gamble.

          He could have done the math and thought if they were arresting him and going through his stuff, there was a good chance they would already have enough to hang him. While scattering the evidence would increase the odds of them finding something they could trace back to him.

          Look at it this way - where do you keep your wallet? Do you leave it somewhere until you need it, or do you keep it on your person so you know exactly where it is at all times?

            I actually leave it somewhere until I need it… He could have easily left all this at his home and dyed his hair.
