Montgomery County Police Chief Marcus Jones provided more details on CNN about the man who is accused of attempting to carry out an assassination attempt on Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
Nicholas Roske, who flew from California to Washington, D.C., was upset at the potential overturning of Roe v. Wade that was revealed to the general public after a draft opinion for an upcoming ruling was leaked in May. He was also angry at another case that could be a big win for gun rights.
Jones said the Roske took a taxi to the neighborhood where Kavanaugh lives with his family in Maryland and changed his plan after noticing the U.S. Marshals who were guarding the home. Kavanaugh's house, along with the residences of the other conservative justices, has been the site of constant protests from pro-abortion advocates after their addresses were leaked online.
"At which point in time he began to walk down the street to actually — to see the residence where he observed the U.S. Marshals, who were actually there guarding the U.S. Supreme Court justice and his family. So the individual decided to continue to walk by, but in the meantime he texted his sister to tell her what his intentions were...She convinced him to actually to pick up the phone and call 911 to basically turn himself in and not to do what he had planned to do," Jones explained.

Roske said he is taking medication, but did not say what it is or why he is on it.

A lot of mass shooters were on anti-depressants.
Mostly Prozac.
A.) Traveling with guns in checked baggage is A-OK; it’s just technicalities and paperwork.
B.) The article is deceptive; when you “fly to Washington DC” you DO NOT land IN Washington DC; you land across the Potomac in Virginia. So DC “gun control” laws don’t apply.
C.) Perp took a cab from Virginia to Maryland. I suppose the cab he took COULD have driven THROUGH DC on the way, but who’d expect a cabby to be all Third Degree about what’s in the baggage? “Don’t ask; don’t tell.”
I’m actually more concerned about the inattentiveness of the Federal Marshals “guarding” Kavanaugh’s home. They guy walks right past them, and they have zero curiosity what he’s packing around out there in the dark? I’d feel lots better if there were some declaration they’d noted and were keeping an eye on him.
AS usual, if you want an informative report, DON’T ask a “reporter.”
