Maryland Sniper Shootings-FR Commentary

Fox, CNN, Press Conferences | October 9, 2002 | Fox, CNN, Press Conferences

[Peach]

Another press conference due soon. To avoid multiple vanity threads regarding any news that comes from press conferences, thought we'd keep a live commentary thread going again today.

YIKES!!! It is CREEPY!

The DEATH card is number 13...October 13 is this coming Sunday...wondering just wondering???

I thought that this article might interest you.

I just called my son who is out of school this week. He has the video "Navy Seals" with Sheen. He verifies that the teams' sniper is called "God" however, the character is not played by Sheen.

Wrong link, let's try that one again.

I am was searching the net today for any reference to "to the policemen" and "I am God", with the latter phrase combined with the word "sniper" in the search criteria.

I came up with a hit to an ezboard chat board for "Romance of the 3 Kings", which appears to be a role playing game.

Anyway, one of the participants, who goes by the screen name "Lordostrategy", joined the board in July 2002. In his postings since that time, he has had the following two 'sig' files that he has attached to his posts on the chat board. Note, these were posted BEFORE the shooting started.

1. Who am I? Who am I? I, am the incarnation of Death. I am your executioner. I am your murderor. I am your destroyer. I AM GOD.

2. "Never run from a sniper, you will only die tired...." Emperor Sima Kai of the Han Kingdom. "I am the God of Death"

Now, I am not saying this guy is the perp but it is possible that the perp is involved in this scene. I am going to spend some more time researching the game, the chat site, and Mr. Lordostrategy. Here is a link to the chat site. NOTE: Going there launches a million pop ups.

It's a roman numeral on the card I saw...

X III = 10-3 or Thursday, the day of the 4 kills. Maybe he was going to leave it that day instead.

Darn fine detective work, Pete. I do believe, however, that the note left of the death card said "To the policeman...."

[Elenya]

maybe it was Navy Seals.

Sure looks like it:

"Rounding out the cast of SEALS are several familiar faces such as Dennis Haysbert, Rick Rossovich, and everyone's favorite chicken space marine Bill Paxton as the sharp-shooting badass known affectionately as God."

Oops, of = on.

Yeah but the shooter didn't leave the tower card. They left the death card.

When I first mentioned the tower card with the crumbling tower on fire a couple of hundred posts back, I was thinking along the lines of different cards representing different phases of the jihad. I read this card as death to Americans.

Look for next attacks in Baltimore or Philadelphia areas. Wait one - two weeks for familiarization and study of suroundings / escape routes...

That could be but the killer leaves a trail by doing this. For example, people that know the perp may notice that he is out of town for a number of days while killings happen in another region. The perp may leave a credit card paper trail in his new location or, on the other hand, use cash where a credit card would be more appropriate thereby arousing suspicion. I suspect the perp's name is already on a very long list of suspects. When the perp changes his routine by going outside the DC area to kill he narrows down the list greatly.

I really think the chance is good that this Sicko will be caught if he resumes his assassinations--no matter where he goes.

It seems it is Bill Paxton that plays Dane.. The sniper codenamed God.

Yeah, but the shooter didn't leave the tower card. They left the death card.

More precisely, the *Death* card was found at one shooting location. And i see the number associated with that card is 13, again, not happy news if the presence of the card is related and is tied to possible additional shootings. Additionally, it suggests that the card was not left by a person knowledgable of Tarot- the Death card is NOT an indicator of upcoming death, though a dabbler or one unknowing might not be aware of that.

The possibility of the connection of the *Tower* card to the 09/11 events should be obvious, but interestingly, I've found several different numbers on that card, depending on which illustration is used. That seems to be less so of the *Death* Tarot card, usually uniformly *XIII*.

I'd be far more convinced of a direct connection had card 1 been found at the first shooting incident, the V card at the fifth, and so on, neatly connected to the series as a means of eliminating any copycat shootings. The shooter does not seem to be so cooperative if the cards are related to his/her/their activities.

barring ballistics evidence to the contrary

As I understand it, there is such ballistics evidence. A match of the bullets.

[freeperfromnj]

Look for next attacks in Baltimore or Philadelphia areas

I'd look in NY which was singled out along with DC in the recent audio tape

[GraniteStateConservative]

I would much rather have it be a ME terrorist. If it is a white male gun enthusiast, then we all become a "public threat".

It would be the Democrats' October surprise.

Having just typed "to the policeman" in a previous post, I just had a thought. That is certainly a strange turn of phrase - nothing that I would say or write normally.
