Perhaps, just perhaps, authorities have finally identified the person who killed two people and wounded eleven others at Brown University. If someone in Hollywood wrote this script, it would be rejected as too bizarre to be true. It appears the actual shooter committed suicide in Salem, New Hampshire. According to law enforcement personnel, his body was found in a storage container.
His name is Claudio Manuel Neves Valente. He was a former student at Brown. There are reports that he also killed MIT Professor Nuno Louriero in Brookline, Massachusetts. The key information came from, “John” a homeless man, had been apparently living in a boiler room at Brown.
How an anonymous Reddit tipster helped the FBI find the Brown shooting suspect | The Independent
“I’m being dead serious. The police need to look into a grey Nissan with Florida plates, possibly a rental. This was the car he was driving. It was parked in front of the little shack behind the Rhode Island Historical Society on the Cooke St. side. I know because he used his key fob to open the car, approached it and then something prompted him to back away. When he backed away, he relocked the car. I found that odd, so when he circled the car that is when I saw the Florida plates. He was parked in the section between the gate of the RIHS and the corner of Cooke and George St.”
Then there is “Rodney Chatman”. Brown’s vice president for public safety and emergency management.
He was reportedly the subject of two no confidence votes since arriving at Brown. He was allegedly fired from his previous position at the University of Utah. This sure likes like another DEI hire.
Now there is a report that a Brown University custodian warned about the shooter weeks before the event.
Brown University custodian warned about shooter weeks before attack
A custodian from Brown University has come forward and claimed that he warned a third-party, on-campus security guard weeks ago about a suspicious man who turned out to be the suspected shooter in an attack that killed two and injured nine.
Derek Lisi, a 15-year employee, saw a man pacing the hallways, looking into classrooms and hiding in a bathroom to avoid being seen in the weeks leading up to the Dec. 13 shooting inside Brown’s Barus and Holley building, as first reported by The Boston Globe.”
It gets worse:
“The contractor company, Event Staffing Services, confirmed to the Globe that one of its employees was told about the suspicious person in December, but said it is not responsible for investigating those types of reports.”
“The custodian told investigators he had seen the man multiple times over the past month, and the custodian’s account was soon corroborated by security video from the building.”
This is so stunningly bad that it is almost certain to be true. We can be certain that the families of the victims are being inundated with calls from plaintiff attorneys desperate to represent them in the lawsuit against Brown.
Suppose you were spending $100,000 to get your child an IVY league education at Brown. Any questions regarding what happens next?
