If I had been the store owner in this case, I would have delayed selling him the armor with an excuse, (too small, too large) AND asked him for a contact number and address to contact him if the right size was available. At least that idea came to mind when I read about the store event.
Most stores have video. The shooter was very security concious. I wonder if he scoped the store out for cameras before he asked about the body armor and ammunition.
If the FBI were really intent in these cases, they could have asked for phone information from nearby towers to find out who was calling at the time he was in the store.
if its in jensen beach florida-lotus gunworks 3558 NW Federal Hwy
Jensen Beach, FL 34957 go to google maps i couldnt see outside cameras but if you walk inside they have a monitor showing 8 cameras to the side of entrance. they also have a monitor when you walk in the front door showing those that walk in and a couple of parking places in front.
yeah I would also given him a 10% off business card if he left his info..so they could call him when it came in or some such
also followed him to parking lot and gotten vehicle info make model color plates... hindsight isgreat isnt it..they also should have kept the part od the video with him on it put it on a thumb driveor saved it ...
If they had video, why would they tell the FBI that they did not have any images?
i read they said they were grainy but i doubt that with the new stuff they are not tapes but digital and FBI has software to clean themup and they have 400 million of people already in facial recognition database so they dropped the ball maybe AA?
Thanks for the reply.
The FBI was probaly just lazy here. Hindsight is 100%, but the FBI also knew that they were not allowed to take ethnicity into account.
With numerous frames on video, a pretty good picture can be constructed, I believe.
yes they can it started with research projects for NASA.
here is one of the first of many products

It appears to me that this product would be very useful for people trying to identify robbers in grainy videos.
It should have wide application across the country.
