ME - Lewiston, Mass Shooting, Multiple Scenes - Oct 2023

[Emerald1328]

You’re almost always right but I think they’ll find him in the woods or perhaps the water, dead by his own hand. Have we ever seen someone who killed so many people so indisciminantly go dormant only to appear many hours or days later to kill again? The closest I can recall is Andrew Cunanan, the guy who in 2010(?) killed 5 people across several states over several months ending w/Versace in Miami. But his victims were targeted in advance or killed to facilitate his escape.

If he’s not dead and continues his spree, I suspect it’ll happen many miles away at some pre-determined location that holds meaning to him.

Fashion designer Gianni Versace murdered by Andrew Cunanan in killing spree | July 15, 1997 | HISTORY

Spree killer Andrew Cunanan murders world-renowned Italian fashion designer Gianni Versace on the steps outside his Miami mansion. Versace is shot twice in the head, and Cunanan flees the scene. Cunanan had no criminal record before the spring of 1997, when he began a killing spree in...

Christopher Dorner also comes to mind as one who didn’t commit suicide after his spree over several days.

Can't believe I'm only hearing about this story from Websleuths and not mainstream news!

Hopefully this guy gets caught soon.

Even my local media was covering it late last night, and I'm in Atlanta.

 

[heartandsoul]

It's headline news in the UK, I woke up this morning to an alert on my phone about it. I won't pretend to know anything about the USA and guns, but I am very sad to keep reading these stories.

I hope he's caught soon.

 

[Moonstrawbs]

It's headline news here in the UK. I saw it first on here though. So shocked that it hasn't ended as it usually does....Terrifying. Thinking of everyone affected and hoping he is apprehended as soon as possible.

NH and Maine are two of the most forested states in the US. He could be anywhere. I honestly think his car at the boat ramp was nothing but a ruse. He could be right under their noses or he could be long gone. The question remains then: what is his end game? Where will he end up? While he can't go to Canada, he could easily cross state lines undetected, especially if he decided to change his appearance.

The most depressing thing, after loss of life of course, is knowing that when he is finally found, nothing will be done. Nothing. Nada. Just shake out our hands so they are ready to wring at the next mass shooting.

But they're gonna get thoughts and prayers!!

Does he have a family? Children?

If so I sure hope his entire extended family is being protected.

Typical of Heavy.com.... his "personailty" is highlighted by his online communication activities....

He appears to have a pretty large family in the Bowdoin area...... Their pain must be excruciating. I wonder if any will eventually speak up. moo

Maine resident: People knew to 'stay away' from Robert Card

this probably gives you some insight on his family.

Being a marine he must have amazing survival skills?

Calling someone in Maine a gun fanatic is like calling water wet. Gun ownership is super common up there and he was military. He was not an outlier in that way. This is sensationalist.

Army Reserve. He isn't some special forces commando.

Have LE confirmed at all that the whole Card family was "right wing militia" as this guy states?

The Google maps street view of his home has a large swing set in the front yard. I haven't heard anything definite yet, though.

That street view is July 2013 and looks pretty neglected, tall weeds growing under most of the swings.
Obviously kids there at some point though.
