Jesse Watters believes the suicide note is a red herring. Watters has catapulted Robert Card to the position of Einstein of mass murderers.

“He’s one step ahead of everyone, outwitting the entire fbi, state police, and local cops. This was all planned out meticulously.”

But he’s not mentally stable, either. If Card was, he wouldn’t have opened fire on crowds of people, and I doubt he’s improved much mentally since wednesday. Whether he can compartmentalize escaping from the shooting spree is the question. Maybe the murders themselves, sobered him up enough, or his type of craziness allows him to avoid capture.

We’ll find out soon enough.

Theories about Card after showing up at the boat launch

“(cnn) ‘the question is, does he have a boat there? or is he aware of a boat he could take there, and is that a second part of the plan, or just because he has done his shooting and he is in escape mode and it’s where he ended up? those are unknowns,” said cnn chief law enforcement and intelligence analyst John Miller.

“an escape on the water could make the search easier, former fbi agent Rob D’Amico said, because the waterways would limit the suspect’s movement. a warm boat motor, he added, would also get the attention of authorities using thermal imaging technology. but D’Amico believes the suspect probably left in a second car, one he either left there or maybe stole.

“‘it appears he knows the area. he didn’t make that turn (to the boat launch) by mistake. it suggests he had a plan,’ Miller said, ‘and the plan was to stay at large and not be captured there or immediately after, as so many of these active shooters are.’

“that adds ‘another element,’ Miller said: ‘it’s not just a manhunt within a small area, but somebody who’s got the resources and the training to put some distance between’ himself and the police.”
