may have actually saved lives by obscuring the gunman’s targets, a senior NYPD official told The Daily Beast.accused gunman Frank James
In the July 2020 posting, the finger points from a young man with a backpack standing in a raspberry shirt to a young woman seated in a white outfit on the right and then over to a young man in a blue shirt by the doors on the left, He keeps on from one person to another, pausing at each about as long as it would take to fire a gun.
James was also arrested for various other relatively minor crimes, above ground and below. But he had never been charged with a felony when he moved to Ohio. And, though by his own accounting he suffered PTSD from various emotional hardships, no records have surfaced indicating that he was ever declared mentally incompetent or committed to a psychiatric institution.
But, as alleged in a federal criminal complaint that could now lead to him serving a life term, whatever was holding him back fell away on Tuesday. The Glock he had purchased 11 years before was found at the scene aligned with two full extended magazines with at least 66 more rounds. Police believe many more people may have been shot had the gun not jammed.
But a different kind of math seems to apply when gunfire erupts elsewhere in the city, and particularly in its rougher neighborhoods.
