Seattle police say one man—who is white—committed both sets of murder today

Here’s the story, from the Seattle Times.

The suspect in Wednesday’s shootings was identified by law enforcement sources as Ian Lee Stawicki, 40, of Seattle. His brother said Stawicki was mentally ill: “It’s no surprise to me this happened. We could see this coming.”

That’s the first time I can remember off-hand that someone said of a multiple murderer that his crime was no surprise. What we normally hear is, “This is a complete shock. He was nice, quiet guy.”
