If true, evidently he didn't know the process in getting into Jazz Fest, it's just as bad as the TSA...

Unless he planned on throwing the gun over the fence somewhere.

He was planning a mass shooting with a subcompact?

I am no firearms expert, but I would venture a guess that those 12 gauge shells are not compatible with the pistol

Sad world we live in, but aside from just too many people, going to festivals is such a risk now.

What a fricking loser POS.

Gillum was traveling to New Orleans with the intent to carry out a mass shooting at a festival and then die by “suicide by cop.”

You can still carry out the suicide part!

From the Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office press release on Facebook:

quote:

OCSO deputies recovered a handgun and approximately 200 rounds of ammunition from Gillum's hotel room.


No mention of a shotgun. Not sure why he had 12 gauge slugs, or if there were even any slugs in the box.

It'll be interesting to see if his actual motive ever comes out. Why Louisiana of all places.

wondering why he picked Louisiana. I guess Jazz Fest is a pretty big deal. Maybe trying to become famous?

Never been to jazz fest so, I have no idea how easy it would be.

He is a suicidal former LEO in North Carolina. His family says his intent was to harm “black people”.

This will get A LOT more coverage now if true. Way more than the man in Shreveport who killed a bunch of kids this week.
