That was the point in my question in the earlier post, that's what I suspect. But it would be doubly upsetting that the person who gave him the drugs didn't tell LE anonomously of the interaction with him. Note: anonomously could have been done.
Why would a drug dealer call police (even anonymously) and say “hey I gave the guy that shot people and killed himself drugs”? IMO that’s the last thing they’d do as they’d want to be as distanced from it as possible. Also, what good would it have done? They don’t know the pattern of him drugging or how much he had left at any given moment. They could even be drugged out themselves
The drugged out part ya that can be so. The thing is the point I'm trying to get at here is it was a horrible act that happened. If done anonomously it could help apprehend MS. The fact that it wasn't done speaks for itself for whatever reason it wasn't done. I mean this person willingly gave/sold(?) MS the drugs even if they were drugged up. IMO it doesn't sit well with me. Either it was a coerced exchange and luckily MS didn't hurt the dealer or we would have heard of another victim. Coerced fear for their life, perhaps, but can still be anonomys to get MS off the street to get him to stop his nasty business of victimizing is what I mean.
Yeah stepping away from any moral debate about it, but people finding out that you turn in your customers is a great way to lose all your business, regardless of what kind of illegal business it is.
You've stated what I was thinking as well here in your post. Yup, guns go hand in hand here. But its not just the moral conscience part its more that it really actually happened so that being said what if MS had gotten to Regina and needed help doing so. I wouldn't be surprised people helping him along the way who may justify MS's insane reasoning whether drugged up or not. Ya, I know this was a drug dealer but what about someone else who wasn't a drug dealer, it happened once it happened once afterall (drug dealer, brother aiding but dying). With that drug dealer there are others involved in the trade. I'm not talking conspiracy theory here, I'm just saying the fact is MS was given the drugs in the first place. Those drugs have an overlaying reach in whose associated with their distribution and the buyers finally. And niether am I saying money is evil here, it boils down to supply & demand. Plus we don't know if MS was under the influence when he committed the rampage. But you are correct who knows if MS was under the influence when committing the horror it could have been the same dealer who sold/gave him the last batch he took when he was arrested.
IDK with what he did IMO wouldn't it be difficult to carry an amount big enough to sell wherever he went? I'm talking about his stash he would have to conceal it somewhere. I don't think he would have a dealer's stash with him on the run. In his case at the time of his arrest LE didn't say anything about this. But I don't doubt he was a dealer, though, its entirely possible.
Possible. It isn’t like he needed a suitcase full of them.
IDK, a large quantity might hinder him because, its bulky. Secondly, as another Sleuther mentioned users administer when they want to or need to. So its hard to say. I mean it was probably very stressful to avoid LE, and others when one knows their face is plastered everywhere. So I'm sure he had to use in that time until he was arrested. The question here would be where was his access to them. I can see him having a small amount on him when he was committing that horror. Maybe he stole some. But how would he know where to steal it, and that its not protected and he can get is easy? Maybe he knew where to go to get it and the dealer gave/sold him some? But one thing for sure he would need to have a supply when he was evading arrest.
The officers didn't ask for ID?
