Three Mass Shootings Averted

2 years ago editor

Over the weekend, there were three men arrested in three different locations who had the potential and motivation to commit mass shootings.  All three had posted on social media and had the evidence leaning toward a mass amount of people who were about to be murdered.  FBI and authorities stopped these shooters dead in their tracks before anyone was seriously injured or killed.  The public and social media led to all three peacefully being arrested.

The first was arrested in Connecticut.  Brandon Wagshol showed heavy interest in mass shootings on social media post which alerted Norwalk Police and the FBI.  Wagshol has his bond set at $250,000 and was charged with illegal possession of a large number of capacity magazines.

There was a tip-off to the police Wagshol was going to buy “large-capacity rifle magazines from out of state.”  When Police and the FBI found Wagshol, he was working on building a rifle.  After the search warrant was issued, the police stated they found, “multiple weapons, including a handgun, a rifle, a rifle scope with a laser, numerous rounds of ammunition, body armor, a ballistic helmet, and other tactical gear.  It was allegedly stated he told his ex “A good 100 kills would be nice.”

In Daytona Beach Florida, Tristan Scott Wix was the next one to be arrested and charged.  He was picked up at a Winn Dixie parking lot.  Wix texted multiple disturbing messages to his ex-girlfriend, which led everyone to believe he was going to plan and execute a mass shooting.  His ex alerted the police, and the Volusia County Sheriff’s office took it from there.

Wix was 25 years old, and according to the sheriff’s office, he already had his target set.  Another of Wix’s messages read, “A school is a weak target… I’d be more likely to open fire on a large crowd of people from over 3 miles away. I’d wanna break a world record for longest confirmed kill ever.”

He added to the message about how he was ready to die, and he wanted to “have fun doing it.”

At Wix’s apartment, Sheriff Michael Chitwood told CNN, “Authorities had recovered a .22-caliber hunting rifle and 400 rounds of ammo in Wix’s apartment. Wix had initially told investigators he did not own any firearms but that he was fascinated with mass shootings.”  It was unclear if Wix had an attorney, but he was arrested and charged for threatening a Jewish community center.  He is also held without bond.

The third one was in Ohio, James Patrick Reardon, 20 years old, threatened to shoot up a Youngstown Jewish community center.  This would have made a second mass murder in Ohio in less than a month had it been carried out.

Reardon posted on Instagram showing a man firing off a gun which had the community center tagged in the post.  Chief Vincent D’Egidio told CNN the post was showed to an officer who was on another call not related to Reardon’s case.

The executive vice president of the Youngstown Area Jewish Federation, Andy Lipkin stated, “The post was accompanied by a caption that read, “Police identified the Youngstown Jewish Family Community shooter as a local white nationalist.”  Lipkin added, “Seamus O’Rearedon Seamus is a Gaelic version of Reardon’s name.

D’Egidio also told CNN, “The rest of the Instagram account contained anti-Semitic comments, white nationalist content, and images of Reardon or someone else shooting guns.  A search warrant was executed, and authorities found a cache of weapons and ammunition.”

Reardon was arrested peacefully and charged with one count of telecommunications harassment and one count of aggravated menacing.  His arraignment happened on Monday.

All of these cases could have been more tears and more bloodshed.  With the crazies, we have in this world we have our police officers and the FBI to thank for stopping these mass shootings cold turkey.  Social media also has an alert which is triggered by the text and pictures put into it which alert authorities.

There is always someone monitoring the post 24/7, and they will get caught in the event these types of post are sent out online.  Many say it could have been the deadliest shootings of our time but would these have been orchestrated like the others?

They all are, and the people behind it are evil.  People are more in tune with letting authorities know when something doesn’t seem right.  This also helps to give authorities the upper hand when dealing with these situations.

  936. If these three potential mass shootings were successfully averted, why the hell weren’t other disastrous mass shootings prevented also? It wasn’t until seven Mexican nationals were slaughtered in a Walmart in El Paso that law enforcement officials started being proactive! Apparently, as long as victims were limited to American citizens, all red flags, including threats of violence on social media sites, were previously ignored. If the motive for doing nothing previously was because the more mass shootings there were, the more US citizens were willing to relinquish their gun rights in the hope of gaining more safety! They won’t!

  938. Seems sad that the antics of a couple of nutcakes, 3 here, will be used to paint a greviously erroneous picture of gun owners, the vast majority are at least as law biding, if not more so, than is the general public. That said, it seems that that old adage, If It Bleeds, It Leads, holds true to this day.

  940. A 22 caliber “hunting rifle” indeed. And what, one wonders, might this horses behind have intended to hunt with a small bore rifle? Of course, one wonders as to whether the term “hunting rifle” came from the fevered brain of some “reporter” of from what is commonly known as “officaldom”, aka “officialdumb”? Of the above mentioned, which one wonders is the source of this sagacious comment?

  942. Its the Democraps hate and their reteric that cause these shootings they are behind these shootings they spread hate they say resist and go after all who dont agree with us meaning democraps agenda rheybwant our guns so they make shooting happen they kill innocent people for their agenda they dont. Care bout people so screw democraps time to defend our selfs from the evil democraps bring

  944. It seems, all of us can consider becoming habitually vigilant of what appears likely, or even possibly, to threaten harm to those in our neighborhood and communities. The following is a factual retelling. May it be of use as an example of how, similarly to the 3 likely horrendous situations averted.
    I was Blessed to notice highly irregular behavior of a man with a weapon in a residential area. I am former military, awarded Expert ribbons for marksman with rifle and hand gun.
    March 16, 2019, I walked a residential street in my community. A late model Mercedes Benz SUV was parked opposite direction of my walk with its hatch door fully open to the sky. A man in all black attire leaned into that SUV rear hatch door working on something. As i passed, I thought his attire was a bit odd for a warm day in Southern CA. When abeam him still leaning into the SUV, I saw him affix a large round magazine to an assault weapon.
    It so happened that I was enough distance from him on the sidewalk he did not notice me. I took a few more steps watching him intently. He still did not notice me watching him. Once he had affixed the clip to the weapon, he opened a shapeless gray bag and slid the weapon into and then wrapped it closed. The weapon did not form a shape in the bag; it appeared to be just a bag.
    As sport shooters know, it is commonly followed practice to keep rounds and your weapon separate until in a secure range environment. Additionally, it is very common to carry and protect a weapon using a bag that is very closely shaped to the weapon. And one certainly does not load a magazine in a weapon then place in a non shapeless bag going to / from a range. However, I did not care why he loaded his weapon and put it in that bag. He was a threat. Or so I decided to report.
    I saw his license plate and quietly walked backwards to a nearby row of mostly dense bushes along the sidewalk about 100 feet from the man and his SUV.
    I called the police, described the SUV and man, and what I had seen. The 911 dispatcher asked me questions to confirm I was not imagining what I thought i saw, etc. After a few exchanges she accepted I know what I saw and was not crazy but was a concerned citizen.
    The man started his SUV and I told the 911 dispatcher and again told her the license plate and vehifcle description. In what seemed about 20 seconds 2 Police marked SUVs and then about 5 seconds later another 2 Police SUVs had arrived without sirens and totally blocked the man’s SUV from leaving his parking spot.
    I had retreated to a different point to observe the situation without the man in black seeing me. By then the police were moving his hands from the top of his head one hand cuff on his wrists at a time.
    The next day the Police department called me. “The incident remains under investigation. Thank you for alerting the police. We will call if you we need any more information from you.”
    I have lived in my community for 10 years. There are 4 schools within 2 mile radius of that incident.

  946. At least now the authorities, family members, etc, are taking these threats seriously.
    Too bad the ones in the past few years weren’t.
