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

[bestill]

Seriously? They had a press conference to say there were no shots fired? Wow.

Actually I think they are having a presser because they are politicians, jmo. The medical center representative is speaking, he at least has something to share.

 

[Leilei]

Whether he's alive or dead, I think he's long gone from the area.
I was so hoping that they had him at the house.

Sen Susan Collins haggling over minute details about whether to ban assault rifles. Ugh. She says mental health will fix it.

 

[Inthedetails]

I think this may be nothing more than a political photo-op.

Nothing new on the hunt.

I'm wondering if the presser is to keep the media busy and away from the house while LE works there.

Quite possibly, yes.

JMO, a lot of the media is staying at the house. Most of them are pretty savvy. They have different crews covering the PC, I think.

I'm behind and confused. I saw a report from 2 hours ago that they found a note in his home. How could he be in his home? If someone could explain... TIA!


Here's the report about note from hours ago

Note found at home of alleged gunman in Maine mass shooting: Law enforcement officials

A note was found in the home of the alleged Maine mass shooter, according to multiple law enforcement officials, as a manhunt was underway to find the man who allegedly killed 18 people and critically injured more than a dozen others after opening fire at multiple locations.

Presser turning into a debate about weapons.

I will say the sign language woman was great!

Yeah, I should have said presser might be to keep attention away from the house rather than media specifically. Earlier they announced no presser today and now they have this presser with no info....so I'm thinking they are keeping attention on the presser so LE can work.

I could be wrong, of course, but I'm hopeful progress is being made at the house.

For someone who has planned this so meticulously, he surely wouldn't be daft enough to go back to his own land?

Something is up, or Sen Collins wanted to say something. IDK. Its sad.

 

[Cirxe]

Seems like the known victims so far are mostly men. Wonder if that plays into motive. Time will tell.

jmo

I hope you're right!
I would love to be wrong about him being long gone.

Law enforcement expert on CNN says they were executing a search warrant at that home.

 

[Leilei]

CNN has a man saying that RC and his now ex-GF used to go hang out at the restaurant that he shot up last night. Had we heard that before?
This guy had a lot of issues going on over the past few months. No excuses, though, he's still a murderer.

 

[Dhighsmith]

That’s being reported elsewhere too- serving Search Warrant.

 

[SkyBoomer]

News conference on CNN now.

Sen. Susan Collins talking. Not sure what's up

Introducing the congressman for the district. Jared somebody.

I don't think anyone is there from LE, so just a PR thing, as someone else said.

Good for Congressman Jared. He wants Congress to ban assault rifles. Sad it has to happen in someone's hometown to make them realize it. I guess we just have to experience a few hundred more mass killings in Congresspersons hometowns to get this done.

Was Sen. Collins “disappointed” in the killer?
