One was a home invasion that may or may not be related to the victims work on fusion plasma. It is very likely unrelated to that work.

The other was a mass shooting style event that targetted an exam preperation review hall populated by econ students and led by a 21-year-old teaching assistant.

It's a stretch to connect an isolated murder of a field advancing physics researcher and a hall full of students just because all the victims are involved in book learning.

Possible connection, sure. At an improbable stretch.

ChatGPT can certainly knock up a Clancy like novel here, no doubt.





Is there any evidence this murder was related to the professor's work?

put another way, is there any sort of proof that this guy wasn't banging his neighbour's wife, or embezzling funds, or otherwise doing something shady?

In a different state, no less.

The distance between Providence & Brookline is only slightly further than the distance between Dallas & Fort Worth. New England states are tiny.

My understanding is that the border security between those states is rather lax.

On the off-chance that someone believes that there is border security between US states but that these states are an exception.

The US doesn't have border security between states.

The closest thing to an exception is the "don't bring agricultural products into California" stations. However, there's a bypass lane for folks who stayed within 10 miles of the border, and no one checks whether someone is using that lane inappropriately.


Thank you. I dropped this: /s
