I also wondered if he acted alone, seems like a lot of work putting together a dozen bombs and then making mail runs. If he mailed them from the same post office I would hope that a clerk would question all these packages being mailed to politicians but maybe he used several different PO.
The FBI will be able to trace who else had access to his van and house through DNA and fingerprints.
Sayoc's family is cooperating fully - his sisters said they'd tried to have him Baker Acted long ago (i.e, held for observation due to mental issues endangering himself and/or others). So sad for them, who've clearly endured a lot with this guy as a relative over the years. They seem to be decent and entirely normal people other than for Cesar Sayoc. I hope they are treated kindly and with compassion.
Sayoc's mother just underwent surgery on Friday, it's being reported (not sure for what). Such a hard week and more hard weeks ahead for them. It would be her house, where Sayoc lived when not living in his van, that will be gone over with a fine-toothed comb. Hope she can find somewhere else to stay while convalescing - perhaps one of her daughters can provide this.
Right now Trump is fuming. His life and career is about controlling the media.
He was spinning up the media coverage of a caravan of migrants, he was patting himself on the back about signing a bill to combat the opioid epidemic, he was busy lying about nonexistent legislation to slash middle-class taxes. He was on a roll with the media.
Then the bomber struck and took away all his glory, all just days before the mid-terms.
No doubt he will continue to claim the media is being unfair to him, mainly because he is not the topic of discussion.
Lets hope he does not drop a new bomb, literally or figuratively, to get back in the spot light.
He’s a crazy guy inspired by trump and the heat of the election. Not everything is a conspiracy. Not everything is something deeper. Most of the time the simple answer is the correct one.
Hard to believe right wingers are STILL blaming the victims (Democrats did it) even after the guy was arrested. Clearly this guy was obsessed with Trump - the FAMILY ATTORNEY said he saw Trump as a Father Figure.
IMO, this is more proof that the media and the government are trying to devide us as a nation but those people who keep falling for this nonsense don’t give a damn. All they care about is there selfish little lives.
So is there any explanation as to how the packages got sent through USPS facilities without sufficient postage and without the stamps being canceled? Did this guy have help?
Except the Bernie didn’t encourage the behavior unlike Trump, but you already know this.
The media and it's fans continually demonized people who opposed Obamacare; the rhetoric of hate was constant. If "speech" does have the effect that progressives tell is it does, then likely Hodgekinson was driven by the continual invective and hate that came from the Left, via the media.
Can you link directly to his bio? I'm not finding him listed, but maybe I'm searching wrong.
The levels folks go to to link him to the other side is astounding though.
It was shared on Facebook, with no direct link. But it was clear; the guy has never been a Republican. His bio until recently said, "Democrat." Also, as noted in one report on this guy: Why are all the stickers on his van new? None of them bleached from the FL sun?
The guy has been in trouble before. He has mental issues.
All the signage they are showing that looks so perfect, is a custom skin wrap. Those are not perfectly aligned bumper stickers.
Nothing on the right side of that van, looks like any bumper sticker I have seen, which isn't many. Because they would have been peeled off by an offended tolerant liberal.
I'll bet vendors sell a lot of those vinyl wraps and removal decals in the street near the Trump rallies. Funny you'd say an "offended tolerant liberal" would peel off bumper stickers. Most liberal would give a van covered in hate speech a wide berth, knowing only an unstable nut job would do something like that.
