Yeah, that seems to be the conscious opinion among those in Boston. Especially since there appears to be zero leads in the Brown U. investigation and it’s a 45 minute train ride separating the two. Should be added that there isn’t any sign of forced entry nor robbery, just manslaughter.

and now 2 days later a huge merger between Trump Media and Nuno's biggest rival in fusion technology, TAE. Stock is gonna soar with biggest competitor losing their lead guy/

Omg it all makes sense now!!!!

Probably domestic incident with a romantic partner.
I said this about the Reiners. This shite happens every day.
But getting assassinated to a live audience doesn't.

If you don't think this guy was targeted I don't know what to tell you. He was making major breakthroughs in fusion which would threaten a lot of companies

Boston police believe the Brown shooter is same guy as MIT shooter and claims they have identified him.
Just to provide an update.

idiot.
he had a wife and 3 kids. he was assassinated because of the breakthroughs he was making in clean fusion.

Guy didn't do all of this on his own ...
He had a team and his research will carry on.
The idea that this one guy was the key to solving fusion ...
Lolz

The idea that this one guy was the key to solving fusion
In 2007, Loureiro published the work that transformed the field. He demonstrated that the thin current sheets assumed by classical theory are not stable structures at all. When they reach extreme aspect ratios, they become violently unstable.
Beyond a critical threshold, these current sheets do not reconnect gradually. Instead, they fragment into chains of structures known as plasmoids — self-contained magnetic islands that form, grow, and are ejected in rapid succession. This cascading process dramatically accelerates reconnection, making it largely independent of plasma resistivity.
SPARC relies on extremely strong magnetic fields to dramatically reduce reactor size while increasing performance. The trade-off is violence: stronger fields mean faster instabilities, higher energy densities, and more catastrophic failure modes.
Here, Loureiro’s expertise was critical. He contributed to strategies for predicting and mitigating plasma disruptions — events capable of dumping immense energy into reactor walls within milliseconds. His group helped design systems that disperse relativistic electron beams before they concentrate into what would effectively become directed-energy weapons inside the reactor.
Without this level of control, fusion remains an expensive and dangerous experiment. With it, fusion becomes a viable technology valued in the trillions of dollars and capable of reshaping global energy politics.
The result was a definitive explanation for the explosive nature of solar flares and the sudden collapse of laboratory plasmas. More importantly, Loureiro showed that these events are not random. They are predictable.

Obviously ... you have never worked in a scientific research field.
The dude had teams of people to execute his ideas and he probably wrote a lot of what he was thinking down for them to experiment/execute on these ideas.
It's not like this one guy, alone in his garage, was on his way to solving fusion ...
Killing him stops nothing ... its going to be a failed student who had a grudge.

Concur on both counts.
Something deeper. And maybe something suspicious afoot.
This incident suspect and short of details. The notion that "he's Jewish -- the anti-semitism is out of hand!" narrative is coincidentally becoming immediate mind-conditioned speculation.

Obviously. He was a leader in his field though and this will undoubtedly slow down SPARC

The (sloppy) Brown event is a FF. The (sloppy) Aussie event as well.
If the "official" claim is "same guy" in the Brown / prof guy case as well, then...here we go
