GUILTY MD - Multiple Fatalities At Capital Gazette Newsroom In Annapolis, 28 June 2018 *arrest*

[BetteDavisEyes]

Probably somewhat OT, but when I heard that Ramos had "altered" his fingertips so his prints couldn't be traced, I immediately thought of this episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Season 14, Episode 24 (season finale) "Her Negotiation".

...Schreiber has burned the tips of his fingers off, no prints can be had,no identity can really be verified. So we have a dilemma there, but he's arrested anyway, but released on his own recognizance pending the trial...

Could this be where Ramos got the idea to get rid of his fingerprints?

The shooting suspect was fired by employer in 2014 for "security suitability concerns"

Shooting suspect Jarrod Ramos was terminated for “security suitability concerns” in July 2014 by his previous employer, Enterprise Information Services, where he worked as a help desk specialist within the Bureau of Labor Statistics in Washington, DC, according to court documents.

Enterprise Information Services filed a response to Ramos’ complaint, saying the federal government demanded that Ramos be terminated “citing security suitability concerns resulting from an Investigation conducted by the Office of Inspector General.” The company said it was “never informed of the exact nature of the investigation."

Annapolis shooting victim had ties to Raleigh

WPTF radio broadcasters Mike Raley and Tony Riggsbee worked with Hiaasen.

"The fact that it was a person I knew I think has probably not really set in yet," Raley said.

Raley and Riggsbee remember Hiaasen's warm smile and his dedication to his craft.

"He was an outstanding writer," Riggsbee said. "He was one of those guys who knew how to be concise yet at the same time give you the details that you needed in a story."

"He was gregarious," Raley said. "One of the smartest people I think I'd ever met and he could do offbeat stories better than most people."

Annapolis newsroom attack feels like a home invasion

The deceased, some of whom were described by colleagues as old-school newspaper people, sound like the sort of creative, dedicated folks who are familiar to just about every newsroom. These are the sort of determined journalists behind the tweet on the newspaper’s Twitter account in the wee hours after the tragedy that. “Yes, we’re putting out a damn paper tomorrow.”

And they did, which comes as little surprise to me. News people tend to live for their next opportunity to report or comment on the news. We just don’t expect the news to be about us.

The Latest: Suspect wasn’t considered threat in 2013

A police detective who several years ago investigated the man accused of fatally shooting five people this week at a Maryland newspaper said at the time that he did not think the man posed a threat to the paper’s employees.

Anne Arundel County Police said Friday that the detective had been assigned to investigate threatening comments Jarrod W. Ramos made online in 2013.

A police report from 2013 that authorities released Friday describes a conference call between the detective, an attorney for the publishing company, a former correspondent and the paper’s editor.

The detective said he told the other participants he didn’t think Ramos was a threat, based partly on the fact that he had not tried to enter the newspaper building and hadn’t sent “direct threatening correspondence.” The report also says Ramos’ contact with employees had been limited to Twitter and civil court filings.

The report says the newspaper had decided not to pursue any charges because doing so would be like “putting a stick in a beehive.”​

Bet he was something of an incel, too

Even if he was, that in of itself means nothing. Lot's of people are celibate, that don't make them go shoot up a place. No, this fellow had lot's more issues than that smoldering beneath the surface.

The Capital Gazette’s owner has set up a fund to help the victims and survivors of this attack.

Also, a journalist and one of my former coworkers set up the account. It’s legit.

More about both in the link.

Incels are INVOLUNTARILY celibate, they do not want to be celibate

Incels are INVOLUNTARILY celibate, they do not want to be celibate

LOL, if you're not having intercourse right this second, then you're celibate. Whether voluntarily or involuntarily, that and she said she had a headache.

This guy had much more serious issues than not having sex.

Incel is more of a philosophy about life in general than it is about someone making a decision to be celibate. It’s involuntary celebacy.

To my interpretation, if he is an incel, it would actually strengthen the point you’re making about him having deep-seeded issues.

“Incels are misogynists who are deeply suspicious and disparaging of women, whom they blame for denying them their right to sexual intercourse.”

Exactly. It just amps up their feelings of being wronged in life. They are sick men in more ways than just not being able to find women to have sex with them.

The Latest: Victim recently attended active-shooter drills

Dozens of mourners have gathered at a Maryland church to grieve and pay tribute to five slain newspaper employees, including a member of the church's congregation.

The Rev. Fred Muir's voice cracked when he described the mounting dread he had felt as it became clear Wendi Winters didn't survive Thursday's shooting at the Capital Gazette in Annapolis.

The 65-year-old Winters was a special publications editor and a mother of four.

Muir described her as a beloved "pillar of her community."

Some of those attending the vigil at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Annapolis on Friday gasped when the Rev. John Crestwell noted that Winters had participated in an "active shooter training" session at the church three weeks ago.

Crestwell said he was sure that Winters "did not cower in fear." He said she "died a hero and probably saved more lives."​

Annapolis shooting suspect not cooperating with detectives - WCBI TV | Your News Leader

CBS News spoke to Thomas Marquardt, who was the paper’s editor and publisher at the time, when the paper was at a different location.

“We had given a photo to the front desk with my personal instructions that if anybody that resembled him would come through the door that they were to call 911,” he said.

The paper’s current newsroom had little security, and that’s deliberate, said columnist Terence Smith.​

Through a window, Rock watched as armed officers rushed into the building. She later saw first responders as they escorted a suspect out of the building in handcuffs, and Rock said he was "calm and cooperative."

Rock watched as others in the building were evacuated, including at least one deceased victim.

"I knew he was dead because I'm a nurse," Rock told ABC News. "He was shot in the abdomen."

I'm confident you didn't mean it as such... My point is even if he was an Incel [and that's not known as a fact] that in itself doesn't make someone go shoot up a place. His on going grudge with the news agency seems to be more of an influential factor, than whatever his sex life was like...

Except being an incel isn't about a man's sex life. It's the ideas that are attached to women not giving them what they believe they are entitled to. A lot of people aren't getting sex regularly yet they just deal with it and live their lives.

 

[Ironhorse]

. A lot of people aren't getting sex regularly yet they just deal with it and live their lives.

Precisely... That don't make them go shoot up a place.

 

[bluesneakers]

Precisely... That don't make them go shoot up a place.

Right, because they don't identify as some made-up social group and don't feel the need to take out their imaginary injustices on others. Being member of what's essentially a hate group spurs the "incels" into action. But it's really not on topic since we have no idea if he identified as an "incel" or not. It wouldn't surprise me but I think other issues led him to commit murder.
