What did the man who murdered the ICU nurse do for a living? I mean, before he was recruited by the Nazi Party?

The only positive I can see in this incident relative to the Renee Goode shooting is that several agents on scene immediately started first aid with one rushing over to assist so quickly they fell and seemed to smack their head on the street.

Of note, these individuals looked to be more professional in their garb than most of these "agents," who look like goobers in running shoes, jeans and camo fleeces wearing Amazon purchased larp gear meant for airsoft.

I'm clinging to some hope that individuals within the agency who were there before Trump turned it into the Gestapo see what it's becoming and act accordingly. Further evidence of this are the agents who blew the whistle on the 4th amendment shredding memo authorizing invading people's homes without a warrant.
