Story highlights
- New: The FBI couldn't "identify the person who actually made the comment" on YouTube, an FBI official said
- The FBI got a second alleged threat report about the suspect, a law enforcement official said
(CNN)The FBI was warned in September about a possible school shooting threat from a YouTube user with the same name as the suspect in Wednesday's campus massacre in Parkland, Florida, according to a video blogger.
Ben Bennight, the 36-year-old YouTube video blogger from Mississippi, noticed in September an alarming comment on a video he'd posted. He told CNN he immediately contacted the FBI.
"Im going to be a professional school shooter," read the comment, left by a user with the name Nikolas Cruz, the same name of the suspected shooter who opened fire at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on Wednesday, killing at least 17 people.
It was one of at least two alleged threat reports about the suspected shooter that the FBI received, according to a law enforcement official. In both cases, the FBI did not share the information with local law enforcement, the official said.
Bennight emailed a screenshot of the comment, which he shared with CNN, to what he thought was an FBI tip line, but the email address was invalid, he said. Bennight said he followed up with a phone call to the FBI. The comment on YouTube has since been pulled down.
According to Bennight, agents from the FBI's field office in Mississippi contacted him and came to his office to conduct an in-person interview the next morning. Bennight told the agents he didn't know anything about the user, he told CNN.
That was the last contact he had with the FBI until Wednesday, he said.
The FBI special agent in charge of the Miami division, Robert Lasky, confirmed Thursday morning that the bureau received a tip last year about the YouTube comment.
"No other information was included with that comment which would indicate a time, location or the true identity of the person who made the comment," Lasky said during a news conference. "The FBI conducted database reviews, checks but was unable to further identify the person who actually made the comment."
It's not clear whether the FBI ever identified the suspect in the other alleged threat report.
On Wednesday afternoon, after Cruz was arrested, Bennight got a call from an agent in the FBI's Miami field office, who wanted to follow up on the September incident, he said. A few hours later, FBI agents from the Mississippi office paid Bennight another visit.
"I saw the story kind of go across my newsfeed, but I didn't pay a whole lot of attention to it," he recalled Thursday in a phone interview with CNN. "But when the FBI said it was the same name, the first thing that went through my mind was, 'Wow, I hope you were at least watching this guy that I alerted you to months ago."

New Mexico School Shooter Also Fixated on Violence Against Jews
https://www.adl.org/blog/new-mexico-school-shooter-also-fixated-on-violence-against-jews
America’s deadly epidemic of school shootings continued last week, when William Atchison, a 21-year-old gas station attendant, disguised himself as a student and went to Aztec High School in northwestern New Mexico to conduct a shooting spree, something he had fantasized about for some time.
Atchison killed two students, Casey Jordan Marquez and Francisco Fernandez, and shot at a number of others before killing himself, a shocking and tragic turn of events for the people of Aztec. Atchison had left a short on-line message detailing his intentions but investigators and journalists soon discovered that Atchison had for years dreamed of shootings and mass killings, especially school shootings, and for years had posted messages on such subjects on a variety of online forums.
Reporters for The Daily Beast, moreover, discovered that Atchison’s dark on-line world extended beyond those fantasies of school violence to include what they described as “white supremacist, pro-Trump” themes. By his own admission, Atchison posted on the controversial anonymous message board 4chan, as well as on the white supremacist website The Daily Stormer.
Did Atchison fully subscribe to white supremacy, as opposed to being fascinated with the death and destruction associated with the Nazi regime? Various other would-be spree shooters, such as the Columbine killers Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, became interested in Nazism for this reason, without becoming full-fledged white supremacists.
An examination of Atchison’s available on-line messages suggests that his white supremacist beliefs were sincere—and that in particular he had developed an obsession with violence against Jews almost as great as his obsession with school violence. Had Atchison lived in a city with a significant Jewish population, it is even possible the tragedy he caused might have taken an anti-Semitic form instead of the shape that it did.
Atchison was an avid on-line gamer and his progression may well have been one that birthed many other young white supremacist websites: from the on-line gaming subculture to forums like 4chan, which contain many racists and white supremacists among their members, to explicitly white supremacist venues like the Daily Stormer.
Atchison’s posts and images reveal familiarity with alt right-style white supremacist phrases and memes, including phrases such as “the goyim know,” “shut it down,” and “shoahed,” as well as more traditional white supremacist concepts such as “rahowa” and 14/88. “The goyim know” and “shut it down,” are anti-Semitic phrases portraying evil Jewish conspirators panicking when white people see through one of their ostensible plots. Atchison was well-versed in anti-Semitic conspiracy theories and even uploaded the notorious anti-Semitic forgery, “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion,” which portrays a malicious Jewish conspiracy, to his Pastebin account.
Atchison also had a habit of creating swastikas within video games—such as using a gun in a first-person shooter to “shoot” a swastika into a wall or side of a building. “I can’t stop drawing swastikas to save my own life,” he confessed in March 2017, and screenshots posted from his game provide ample evidence. He also often created computer characters on Nazi themes; in one game, for example, his characters included AdolfHitler, TheodorMorel (a doctor of Hitler’s), HermanGoring, JoeGoebbelSS, IlseKoch, and SamHyde1488.
It is Atchison’s account on Steam, the popular on-line gaming site, which contains some of the most disturbing evidence of his racism and anti-Semitism. Atchison posted multiple screen shots to Steam from game mods that he had used to insert Nazi propaganda, anti-Semitic 9/11 conspiracy theories and other types of hate—including African-Americans being lynched and comments suggesting “lgbt people should be sent to extermination camps.”
But he reserved particular wrath for Jews, such as when he claimed in 2016 on Steam that “I hate the fucking jews. I always have, I always will. They are not the Israelites, they are not God’s chosen people either. They are the evil, mamzer Edomites that Joshua was told to kill to the last man.”
Atchison frequently manipulated video games such as Grand Theft Auto to create scenes—from which Atchison would post screenshots to his account—of people killing Jews or people intended to appear to be Jews. These graphic images would frequently be accompanied by equally graphic language from Atchison, such as “KILL THE JEW,” “RUN OVER THE JEW,” “toten der jude,” “FUCKING DIE JEW,” “JEW-HUNTING,” “RUN LITTLE JEW!!!”
There is no evidence that Steam sought to remove these images containing anti-Semitic violence and, indeed, the images are still viewable as of this writing. Some Steam users were apparently not so happy with Atchison’s over-the-top violent nature, however. Atchison even posted one screenshot of someone abruptly ending a game session with him, stating “Terrorism jokes aren’t too funny.” Atchison’s response was “UR A CUCK DIE.”
Two children died when Atchison decided to turn his twisted violent fantasies into reality.

So this nig was Remy from higher learning
Switching back and forth between Hannity and Queen Savage, they are really pushing this mental health angle.
They have to. Because then they have to admit it's a problem with their politics. Then they have to talk about white male fragility and violence.
Of note, conservatives love talking about mental illness during times like this but never want to fund mental health programs and initiatives.
White people like talking because it’s free.
They know they’re making a killing off the interest.
Just as he did regarding Kaep and the protest.
wrong...he's brown....and now the confusion .....bout what to say after learning it wasn't cac on cac !!!

Or if the FBI wasn't fabricating shit like "Black Identity Terrorists" and spending our tax dollars pursuing them
I could NEVER be a public defender. There’s plenty of opportunity to do god things, but then you might get caught up in some fuckry like THIS. Fuck that
@jagu @fonzerrillii
This country ain't the only one with mentally ill people, how come it happens here more frequently? I'd like to hear someone ask them that.Switching back and forth between Hannity and Queen Savage, they are really pushing this mental health angle.
