Can't wait to hear how nuts he is and how much he changed in the past few days, weeks, months, years. Or how shocked people are that he'd do this.

There’s something wrong with this resume. No way he gets hired for anything substantial with this. If he knows LEAN, he would never say he knows lean. Tech-savviness?

We need to know more about Red Lion Group, his company. The stuff on here regarding that sounds like AI. A lot of it reads like it’s AI-generated. This tells you essentially nothing about his company. Nothing concrete, that is.

No doubt he's fulfilled his wish to "just get out there and be part of the process"

There is an absolute wall between the generic resume and the gears grinding in his head.

He's inscrutable, a cipher like so many American society seems to be breeding.

As innocuous as it is, the resume is still a piece of the puzzle so thank you!

reminds me of the Las Vegas shooter and Trump shooter whose motives we never really found out

Las Vegas shooter was most likely simply suicidal and disgusted with society. That’s how he chose to go out. Evil.

“emotional intelligence” LOL! People who have emotional intelligence don't go on murder sprees.

I've always thought the term "emotional intelligence" was kind of insane

It’s real, but if you’re high in it, you communicate it otherwise. Different words. It’s like needing to tell someone you’re really smart.

My husband was a successful headhunter back in the day, and he always laughed at long resumes like this one. Wtf is “emotional intelligence”?

Thanks as always, Ken.

For anyone reading someone trying to tie this guy to either the political right or left; please tell the poster to shut his or her piehole. It’s pathetic that after a horrible murder like this people start rooting for evidence that the shooter belongs to “the other side.”

I can trust your reporting. That’s important to me and many of us that consider such reporting critical in these days of hyperbolic political commentary.

Nothing about Red Lion Group or Praetorian Guard Security? It doesn’t make sense... at all for a Ed.D to be cosplaying Rambo. The trips to DRC, Lebanon, West Bank, Gaza? The picture the media is trying to paint is someone who does contract work for the IDF.

Apparently, he was doing missionary work in the Congo. There's video footage of one of his sermons. Seems like a far-right evangelical so far.

And then Red Lion Group has all those things in the resume? Customer service?

I looked at his LinkedIn - he posted he was looking for a job a month ago. The copy on his page had grammatical and other errors. He listed his doctoral degree as “E.d.D.” in multiple places, which is odd for an academic. My impression: his resume is smoke & mirrors. Not sure if he’s just another home grown zealot or if he’s in cahoots with anyone else.

He seems just another empty shirt, bloated with yes corporate speak. These assassins are not genuinely political, they are social losers, of the same type that shoot school kids because they can.
