FBI botches Brown University investigation

How do YOU think the FBI botched the investigation?
Look, I'm no fanboy of Kash Patel but I'm still trying to find who it was that actually leaked the identification of the person of interest to the press. Was it the FBI? Was it someone connected to the local authorities? The biggest offense I can see so far is that Patel was probably told they had someone in custody, went with that info from what he thought was a trusted source, and he messaged out something in affirmation of that which turned out to be wrong. He should know better by now. But that is not botching an investigation. I'd be glad to discuss the things I think he has botched since he took the helm of the FBI.
You, being a person who has NEVER been involved in anything that remotely resembled a criminal investigation can maybe enlighten me, a person who has.
When investigations are undertaken leads are pursued and persons of interest almost always get interviewed, or even detained. This could be for good investigative reasons, simple hunches, or even for inadequate reasons. It could be for reasons to actually eliminate that person from consideration, and no longer be interested in them. Someone close to this should have kept their mouth shut and the press got something very premature
The poor young man from Wisconsin who did get named probably needs to speak with some lawyerly types in regards to how irresponsible the media was with information that was leaked to them. Gee whiz, a guy staying in a hotel had a couple guns. Care to guess what is in my hotel room when I travel?
It is interesting that one of the victims of this shooting was Ella Cook, the vice-president of the college Republicans at Brown University (a very very liberal institution). Kinda has a Charlie Kirk feel to it on that level. Conservative students make up .8% of the student body at Brown. It is claimed the shooter shouted something at the time. What was it? Some have said it sounded like that thing terrorists often shout. Brown is heavily Jewish.
If I was going to throw the word "botched" around it would be directed at Brown and how they failed to recognize threats to the staff and students and take adequate security measures being that they are regarded as being a heavily Jewish institution. They have a multitude of cameras (816) on their campus yet have only been able to find one video of the attacker walking away in a grainy video.
This investigation is still in the beginning.Last edited by Morgs153; 12-15-2025, 02:50 PM.Political correctness,...is the inability to speak the truth about the obvious.

Yeah, I know it is. I would just like to get an actual opinion instead of the drive by nonsense. It shouldn't be too hard to put a couple actual thoughts together.Political correctness,...is the inability to speak the truth about the obvious.

Before you edited your last response I was prepared to go with my best guess so far on some things I was able to find developing (in a straightforward way).
Who? I'd be very interested in the name Mustapha Kharbouch. A Free-Palestine LGBTQ activist at Brown. Brown has recently scrubbed that person from their page as of a couple hours ago. They/them was listed as a student assistant.
What? It appears to be a targeted killing of Ella Cook, the conservative student. Other victims were collateral.
Where? At Brown University, already known.
When? Also known
Why? Targeted political killing
How? Firearm
We'll see how this shakes out. But it would appear as though Brown and the local authorities are the ones looking they most botched things.Last edited by Morgs153; 12-16-2025, 05:37 PM.Political correctness,...is the inability to speak the truth about the obvious.

Haters don't really hate you, in fact they hate themselves because you are a reflection of what they wish to be.

I said I was interested in the guy who they scrubbed from their web page. I didn't name him as a suspect. Just that I was interested.
Ella Cook was shot multiple times compared to other victims. That did seem like a targeted killing compared to the other people in the room.
No, it still appears that Brown University were the people who botched this. In a school where you have to spend around $100,000/year to attend, a school a with an $8 billion endowment fund, a school that pays their school president over $60,000 per week (yes, per week!) you would think they would have a better handle on protecting their students and facilities.
The still unanswered questions as to why some 1200 cameras (yeah, the first number of 816 was wrong) didn't do jack squat. The rumors of them being disabled or not properly functioning is still worth checking into and what was their reasons behind it. The best video of the suspect came from a rental car agency. Had Brown's security been operating as it should have there may have been a chance to catch the person before MIT.
For crying out loud a homeless dude on the street was more suspicious than the actual security component at the university and actually noticed the suspect casing the neighborhood. That's a fail. That's a big time fail. One of the first rules of patrol procedures; in order to know what is out of place you have to know what is in place.Political correctness,...is the inability to speak the truth about the obvious.
