Camera captured the face and outfit of the shooter, looks to be clad in black, with some type of patch/badge on the right shoulder of the shooter. Color is sketchy on YouTube, but shooter appeared to be somewhat darker in complexion that those he shot, but could be that the shadows and motion of the camera as it fell distorted this a bit. I'm sure someone with better equipment than trying to freeze-frame from YouTube can get a clear picture of the perp.
That being said, prayers for all those who were shot.
They’re sure as hell going to try to pin it on a white male Trump supporter.
Watch and see - if they can get some patsy, they will.
Remember Clinton and the OK bombing.
Looks Amish, really!

You can’t tell for sure from the screen shot from that final video that was broadcast live. But there may be enough detail to help nail down the identification. There may possibly be MORE video that was captured (on the fallen camera) but not broadcast.
that may be the LIVE graphic

The 24 year old reporter and her 27 year old cameraman (and fiance) were both killed.
sounds like ex lover.
in a sad way..I hope it was..versus just some random crazy jihad dude.
Prayers out to everyone involved and even those watching the execution.
Obviously Amish, Mennonite, or since this is Franklin County Virginia, he might be German Baptist.
