I posted earlier today I thought FBI botched this.
The dad turned his kid in, so that ‘solved’ the case.
I was attacked for suggesting it.
What a thoroughly stupid article.
How long did it take to find the Boston Marathon bombers?
How about the DC shooters?
Patel has had what? About 7 months? To fix a thoroughly DEI-ified organization. I’ll take 44 hours.
Almost?
Oh, hey Kash. Hope your day is going well.
Took four days - with technology from that era - to locate the backpack bombers in Boston.

Not seeing on the timeline where they made arrests... released people a few hours later... and POTUS announced the arrest on a talk show.
Well, if the Que Mala / Hussein Regime were in office, the assassin would receive the Medal of Freedom. Que Mala and Hussein would invite him to the White House and bow before him. He would be a candidate for Attorney General.
I would be more concerned if they didn’t look everywhere that could be a hiding spot.
This is just another bull shit anti-Trump administration hit piece.
Blatant and rather pathetic in actuality.
But now we have our lone gunman.
Perfect.
The assassin’s father turned him in. I could get the guy if someone turned him into me. The FBI really didn’t do anything.
That’s because they didn’t botch anything. Sorry you think the real world is instant gratification.
The article is an exercise in idiocy, making fun of police because they followed up on every lead, and quickly.
And criticizing LE because the family turned him in? Absurd.
DM trash article. Let’s see them do better.
Yeah the FBI “didn’t do anything”.
Raining idiots today.
I’m more interested in the report that there’s Discord (an app) chat with the perp and a third party who planted the rifle.
How’d the rifle get there?
How’d the rifle get from there to the woods?
How’d he take down the rifle and then re-assemble it for the photograph of the rifle which was made public?
What was the purpose in taking the rifle with him - only to have it found later?
Was he “known to law enforcement”?
Was he part of a larger conspiracy? If so, who else was involved?
The father was facing charges of harboring a fugitive and losing his pension. Glad the stepped up and turned the kid in.
Perp has a 34 on his ACT and a 4.0 and left college. Likely on SSRI inhibitors.
Bet he has a ‘manifesto’ somewhere we’ll have to fight to see.
“””” The FBI really didn’t do anything.”””””
Sure.
I was thinking about that earlier today. The FBI had surveillance video of him getting into a gray Dodge Challenger. From there I’d expect them to use traffic cams to follow it at least out of town and onto the interstate. That would give them a direction, and they could run DMV records in Utah and any states south of it. Unless the car was in his father’s name, I think they would have eventually tracked him down, especially if they cross-referenced owners with university attendance records.
I applaud Patel’s efforts to keep us apprised. Under the last administration, they would have put a lid on it and let the country boil.
