Brown University Shooter Spent Years Plotting Attack Before Deadly rampage
A chilling video transcript obtained by authorities reveals that the man responsible for killing an MIT professor and two students at Brown University had been planning his heinous attack for nearly six years. The shooter, a former Brown student and Portuguese national, left behind short videos before his death in New Hampshire, which have now been translated from Portuguese to English.
According to the transcripts, the shooter claimed that his motives were complex, yet refused to provide any specifics on why he targeted Brown University or the MIT professor, who he had studied physics with decades earlier. The university's president, Christina Paxson, confirmed that the shooter was enrolled at Brown from 2000 to 2001 but has no current affiliation with the institution.
The footage reveals a disturbing lack of remorse from the shooter, who expressed regret for injuring his eye during the attack and insisted he is not mentally ill. However, in a striking display of narcissism, he claimed that his only objective was "to leave more or less" on his own terms, ensuring he wouldn't be the one to suffer the most from his actions.
The shooter's execution of the murders was deemed "a little incompetent" by him, but he took pride in having "at least something done." His brazen admission comes as a grim reminder that the masterminds behind such heinous crimes often leave behind cryptic clues and twisted justifications.
In the aftermath of the attacks, which left two students dead and nine injured at Brown University on December 13, followed by an MIT professor's murder days later in Massachusetts, law enforcement launched an extensive investigation. They eventually tracked down the shooter to a storage facility in New Hampshire, where he was found dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
The tragic events have sent shockwaves through both universities and the wider community, raising questions about how such tragedies can be prevented. As authorities continue to unravel the motives behind these senseless killings, it remains to be seen whether the full extent of the shooter's plans will ever be revealed.
