All of that about an affair is false. This cat was back living on the coast with his girlfriend (the girl he shot). He was teaching online courses. He thought Schmidt kept him from getting a certain faculty position at DSU that he wanted. Sounds like once he killed his girlfriend, he'd do in everyone that he had a beef with. She lived in Gautier......and it's claimed that Schmidt had never even met her.

That makes sense. I always thought it was a long shot that both him and Ethan were involved with a woman on the coast.
The ending didn't surprise me at all. Just glad he didn't continue killing others. Never know what's going on in people's lives.

Glad it is over and he is gone, but They caught him coming back across the bridge at Greenville when a License plate reader caught his tag......
How many roads/bridges, etc.. are out there where your license plate is being read and your movements tracked without our knowing. I didn't know they were reading the license plates of the vehicles that cross that bridge.

I told someone that this morning. I figured he just snapped and decided to take out all that had "offended" him. I knew circumstantially that it looked like a triangle but certainly could have been other motives.

I was wondering the same thing.

Here's an article about it I read this morning.

the strange thing is that he drove around all day and most of the night in a vehicle that had a BOLO alert, but
it took an automated system to ping him.............

I don't like that one bit!

I'm sure the gubment justified that type of surveillance to track interstate commerce or such but I'm sure it's being used by LEO primarily. Scary to think what else might be out there spying on us. I doubt much of anything is a secret or private any more we just don't know how bad it really is and have no way to know or stop it.

Tin foil hats off, fellas. Those tag readers are used primarily for human trafficking.

BOLO or not, it's hard to cover every single road 24/7. At one time, they were looking for a green Land Rover, then the avenger, then two different colored corvettes.

I don't have a problem with the card readers myself. I look at it this way, If I am not doing anything wrong then I got nothing to worry about. One of those card readers might just catch the next camel humping POS from creating the next 9/11. Read away, don't bother me .

Same system caught the kid that killed those folks in the South Carolina church..

Not saying good or bad, but I didn't know there were tag readers out there all over the place like that. It's no tin foil hat if it's there, there are tag readers that are tracking the vehicles that go across/through/over/etc.. I am sure they have legitimate uses, but inevitabley they are or will be or can be used for unintended purposes. I just wonder how much else liek this is out there that we don't know about.

Good or bad...how many of you knew that when you went across that bridge that somewhere the gov. has a record of you going acros it??

Respectfully, this is the attitude that allows for erosion of freedom. The fallacy is your assumption that your definition of "wrong" will always align with .gov's. If you own a gun, this is already not true, to a degree. I don't wear a tin hat, but like my liberty.

Google United States of Secrets. The ball is rolling gents.

ETA another good article. http://blog.ted.com/why-privacy-matters ... obal-2014/

Tag readers are used frequently east of Jackson on I-20, probably a lot of other places too. This is just where I travel the most. What impresses me are 2 things: 1) they can actually read a tag going 70+ MPH (day and night), and 2) it can collect tag info and run it through all the databases so quick that if they get a hit, the officer can catch up to the vehicle to pull them over before they are long gone. It never has crossed my mind about someone keeping tabs on me by vehicle tag. It would put them to sleep reading my bio.

There's tag readers all over South Louisiana. They say it's for hurricane traffic surveys, but that's bs and everyone knows it. Many are used at red lights for issuing tickets and such.
