Maine Mass Shooter's Disturbing Warning Signs Caught on Camera

Three months before committing a mass shooting, Robert Card II was encountered by New York State Police and fellow reservists at a hotel, where he expressed paranoia and made concerning statements. Despite fears of potential violence, law enforcement faced challenges in getting him help due to legal limitations. Although Card was eventually taken for a mental health evaluation, he later returned to Maine and attempted to purchase a firearm accessory, raising questions about the effectiveness of the system in preventing individuals with mental health issues from accessing firearms.
