FBI says it interviewed FedEx mass shooter last year

The former employee who shot and killed eight people at a FedEx facility in Indianapolis was interviewed by FBI agents last year, after his mother called police to say that her son might commit “suicide by cop,” the bureau said Friday.

Coroners released the names of the victims late Friday, a little less than 24 hours after the latest mass shooting to rock the U.S. Four of them were members of Indianapolis' Sikh community. The attack was another blow to the Asian American community a month after six people of Asian descent were killed in a mass shooting in the Atlanta area and amid ongoing attacks against Asian Americans during the coronavirus pandemic.

The Marion County Coroner's office identified the dead as Matthew R. Alexander, 32; Samaria Blackwell, 19; Amarjeet Johal, 66; Jaswinder Kaur, 64; Jaswinder Singh, 68; Amarjit Sekhon, 48; Karli Smith, 19; and John Weisert, 74.

The shooter was identified as Brandon Scott Hole, 19, of Indianapolis, Deputy Police Chief Craig McCartt told a news conference. Investigators searched a home in Indianapolis associated with Hole and seized evidence, including desktop computers and other electronic media, McCartt said.

Hole began firing randomly at people in the parking lot of the FedEx facility late Thursday, killing four, before entering the building, fatally shooting four more people and then turning the gun on himself, McCartt said. He said he did not know if Hole owned the gun legally.

“There was no confrontation with anyone that was there,” he said. “There was no disturbance, there was no argument. He just appeared to randomly start shooting.”

McCartt said the slayings took place in a matter of minutes, and that there were at least 100 people in the facility at the time. Many were changing shifts or were on their dinner break .

The Media push these mass killings by giving them so much publicity.

People who are suicidal see the possibility for achieving "immortality" through fame.

It is called the copy cat effect, it is well known.

The Media know it and do not care.

The Media want the clicks and money. They want the political agenda. They love mass murder.

You can write these shootings stories before they get reported. The scenario never changes.

What do you want the FBI to do? Arrest everyone who’s mother calls in a complaint?

I’m not being sarcastic... because this is a real issue... but what do you think should be done.

MK Ultra in effect. The FBI triggers these shooters on request for either distraction or when Gun Control needs to be pushed.

Sikhs are NOT Asians, unless the idiots of the propgaganda press want to include the country of India as being ASIA.

Sikhs are not Asians. This moron 19 year old may have thought— “they have turbans on- they must be muzzies”. THAT kind of stupid, and ... suicidal.

Thanks for posting that. I assumed because it’s a white male he would be the poster boy for the dems and gun control.

But you can’t throw people in jail for their profile. Or take away their rights. Innocent until PROVEN guilty. If you actually want the country to be free then the law enforcement MUST NOT do anything just on some profile and suspicion of future behavior.

Which of the seven continents do you believe to be India's current location?

And no mention of the concealed carrier that he killed?

Where did you read that?

Maybe it would be fitting to have the name of the FBI changed to to;
FUBAR

Since all they seem to do is screw things up or bury evidence.

As shown by the names, these “asians” failed to assimilate.

On one of the many places I was checking out after the shooting, but before the photo of the perp was released. I think it was one of the Sikhs that was armed.

It wasn't a "blow to the Asian" community. First, no East Asians were killed, only Middle Easterners and Whites. No specific group was targeted. All victims just happened to be targets of opportunity.

Here again is the media inflaming hate and spreading discord with their lies.
