you have a good point. What did they know? There seems to be more to this story.

Here’s more:

The FBI sent a bulletin that included a picture of Mr. Simpson to police earlier in the day after agents learned that he had expressed interest in the event, Mr. Comey said. But they didn’t know he was planning an attack or even that he had left his home in Phoenix.

Mr. Comey said he has no reason to think that the bulletin contributed to the speed with which a police officer shot and killed Mr. Simpson and his accomplice, Nadir Soofi, when they opened fire outside the event.
