Authorities are now looking at the digital fingerprints of the Michigan State University mass shooter.Years before Anthony Dwayne McRae killed three Michigan State University students and critically wounded five others, he was charged with carrying a concealed weapon -- a felony count that would have prevented him from being able to buy a gun if he were convicted.
It's also unclear why McRae -- a 43-year-old with no known ties to MSU -- targeted the university. He died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound hours after the first shots rang out on campus Monday, police said.New JerseyMcRae, who grew up in New Jersey, said in the note that there were "20 of him" who will carry out shootings, according to a source familiar with the investigation.
"The time for only thoughts and prayers is over," Whitmer wrote in the accompanying tweet. "We are in a unique position to take action and save lives. And that's exactly what we are going to do in the weeks ahead.""Too many places in our nation that are supposed to be about learning and community or joy have been shattered by bullets and stained by bloodshed," Whitmer said. "We shouldn't have to live like this.
"This is an individual who just recently was off probation for a gun offense and in the exact same area," Nessel said. "We know that he had his probation extended a couple of times and not sure why, and I'd like to know that." Why McRae was able to purchase two guns in Michigan in 2021, after he had pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor firearms charge. At the federal level, a misdemeanor conviction does not preclude someone from buying a gun. But in Michigan, "the charge under Michigan law is either a low-class felony or high-class misdemeanor," the state attorney general's office said. So "for the purposes of being able to legally possess a weapon, it's considered a felony.
Anderson graduated from the Grosse Pointe school district -- just like Fraser, another student who was killed, Superintendent Jon Dean said.Fraser was president of the Michigan Beta Chapter of Phi Delta Theta, the fraternity said in a statement. "Sadly, we now know that a CAMP student attending Michigan State University was one of the victims of this horrific mass shooting," the organization said on Facebook. "Guadalupe Huapilla-Pérez is currently recovering from serious injuries related to the shooting. The time away from work for her family, the long recovery road ahead, and the subsequent medical expenses to care for Guadalupe, will place both an emotional and financial a burden on her family.
I don't think it is a question; it is fact.
Not questions, it's a fact. Hard to do this from a jail cell.
Too soft on crime, so yes!!!!!
