BREAKING: Person of Interest Identified in Brown University Shooting – Possible Link to MIT Professor Slaying Shocks Nation!
After days of what can only be described as a Keystone Cops-level response from Rhode Island authorities, there’s finally a glimmer of progress in the Brown University shooting case. On Thursday, December 18, 2025, CBS News reported that law enforcement has identified a person of interest, and the search is now underway. This comes after a weekend of confusion, with police initially detaining and then releasing a “person of interest,” Benjamin Warner, only to admit they were back to square one. The gunman, who killed two students and wounded nine in the Barus & Holley engineering building on December 13, remains at large, but this is the first solid lead since the attack. Video:
🚨 BREAKING: Police have IDENTIFIED the suspected Brown University mass shooter and have a WARRANT.
They FINALLY might find this guy.
It’s time for swift justice. The families deserve answers. And accountability.

But wait, there’s more: sources now suggest a possible connection to the murder of MIT professor Nuno F.G. Loureiro, who was shot at his Brookline, Massachusetts, home on December 15 and died the next day. Initially, FBI Boston denied any link, but new information indicates investigators compared notes, and there’s enough overlap to warrant further scrutiny. Loureiro, a nuclear science and engineering expert, was part of MIT’s plasma science and fusion center, raising questions about whether these attacks are random or targeted at academic figures.

NEW: Authorities have discovered evidence potentially linking the Brown University shooting and the killing of an MIT professor, according to WPRI.
Just two days after the horrific Brown shooting, MIT professor Nuno Loureiro was shot multiple times inside his home.

Back at Brown, the victims were Ella Cook, 19, a sophomore and Republican Club VP, and Mukhammad Aziz Umurzokov, 18, a recent Virginia high school grad. Witnesses claim the shooter yelled “Allahu Akbar” before firing, but officials won’t confirm, citing “investigation.” The university’s response? A disaster. President Christina Paxson was deer-in-headlights, unable to explain why a student assistant’s profile was scrubbed from the website amid speculation of a hate motive. Police Chief Oscar Perez and AG Peter Neronha offered word salad and defensiveness, while Mayor Brett Smiley whined about being tired. The armed man is still out there, yet they assured safety—nonsensical at best.

This new development is a step, but trust is shattered. The “person of interest” isn’t named, and footage remains unclear despite campus cameras. The MIT link adds a terrifying dimension—academic targets? The nine wounded are expected to survive, with three already discharged, but the community demands answers, not evasion.
Stay tuned; this story’s far from over, and the nation’s watching closely.

I’m shrewd, passionate, learned and energetic, God-fearing and patriotic. I’ve done a fine job reintroducing good old American conservatism to a new generation of Americans. I’ve earned the love and friendship of many, the hatred of some, but the respect of all.

need look no further than israel and mossad.
it’s an attempt to drum up the pity party so people forget the genocide they are actively involved in at this moment.
You’re a stupid little bitch
she’s got the right username!
Mouche hmm wonder where that name originates
Supposed to be well over 1000 cameras on that campus.
I have heard people who went there say they had to pass through security to get in that building yet the guy who did it somehow didn’t get on any cameras.
The college also scrubbed the profile of several teachers & teachers aids.
Wake up and smell the coffee, the left have shown us repeatedly they want us all destitute and subservient or dead with no qualms about how they achieve it.
Coexistence is a fools errand that only condemns our own children & anyone still pushing it is either delusional or controlled opposition.
Suspect conveniently found dead in a storage locker….hmmmmm.
