Pentagon identifies officer killed in violence outside building [pic of perp]

Investigators have not revealed a motive in the ambush-style killing of Pentagon police officer George Gonzalez, 37. But Lanz’s past brushes with the law, and neighbors’ accounts of recent menacing behavior, appear to suggest the violence was more likely the act of a troubled, violence-prone individual than part of a broader conspiracy.


This April 2021 image provided by the Cobb County Sheriff’s Office shows a booking photo of Austin Williams Lanz. On the right, an undated photo provided by the Pentagon Force Protection Agency shows Pentagon Police Officer George Gonzalez.

The whole article is worth a read—very strange stuff—makes absolutely no sense.

This guy sounds weirder than religion—I am thinking he is on drugs for mental illness...and maybe only took them intermittently.

...as does “Investigators have not revealed a motive.”

I’m glad this “bad seed” perp is dead. Prayers up for the murdered officer’s family.

It was a mostly-peaceful “burst of violence.”

Maybe the CIA is ramping up their MKULTRA schtick again.

The initial report said the perp stabbed the policeman, then disarmed him, then murdered the cop with his own gun.

My first thought...

The cop was consciously using restraint - i.e., not drawing his weapon, or not firing when he should have - and he lost life because of the current anti-police political climate.

“Well, Son of a Bitch”
They finally got their white perp and damned if the Democrat Media didn't tell the world he was a sad mental case.
I suspect the Federal Bureau of Instigation was working overtime to come up with a White Supremacist, MAGA Nationalist, Trump Supporter angle.

I suspect the FBI is not above making things up.

I would not now, nor anytime in the future believe what the FBI claims.

Sorry guys, you just don’t have any credibility.

The cops sure dont have any restraint when it comes to Trump supporters. Just everyone else.
