Two Israeli Embassy staffers have been shot and killed outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, DC. One person is in custody and was reported to have chanted “free Palestine” in custody. My own speculation- sounds like a ‘target of opportunity’ hit outside a known Jewish event/site. Police have named Elias Rodriguez as the suspect, and have said he’s not previously known to police.

Thanks for the update.

A reminder that, federally, terrorism isn’t something that’s distinctly charged like we do up here, but rather comes into play at the sentencing stage. I won’t be surprised if we see that in this case.

The biggest question will be if he’s offered a plea deal to avoid the death penalty, and if he takes it?
