Update October 27: 8:20 pm ET

The former army reservist who killed 18 people in Lewiston, Maine, has been found dead. Four senior law enforcement officials told NBC News that Robert Card is deceased. Robert Card, 40, was found dead in the woods near Lisbon. Multiple law enforcement sources told the network that Card died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. Some reports say his death was due to two gunshot wounds to the head. That would be strange, but most reports say one gunshot wound.

The 40-year-old Army reservist was found dead late Friday. Robert Card’s body was inside a semi-trailer at a recycling center. He died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, officials said. It was where he worked before he was fired. It was an area that had not been searched before because the manager forgot to tell authorities.

He left a suicide note saying he’d kill himself before the cops found him.

All 18 victims have been identified: Ronald G. Morin, 55; Peyton Brewer-Ross, 40; Joshua A. Seal, 36; Bryan M. MacFarlane, 41; Joseph Lawrence Walker, 57; Arthur Fred Strout, 42; Maxx A. Hathaway, 35; Stephen M. Vozzella, 45; Thomas Ryan Conrad, 34; Michael R. Deslauries II, 51; Jason Adam Walker, 51; Tricia C. Asselin, 53; William A. Young, 44; Aaron Young, 14; Robert E. Violette, 76; Lucille M. Violette, 73; William Frank Brackett, 48; Keith D. Macneir, 64.

~~~
Update: October 27th, 8 am ET, and still no sign of Robert Card. People who commit crimes like this usually commit suicide. Maybe it’s time to search the rivers and woods for a body.

Card hears voices, and who knows what they’re telling him to do? His family said his mental health has deteriorated rapidly lately. He became paranoid and thought everyone was against him.

According to The Daily Beast:

“He is quiet but the most loving, hardworking, and kind person that I know. But in the past year, he had an acute episode of mental health, and it’s been a struggle,” his sister-in-law Katie O’Neill told the publication, adding that he started using hearing aids.

“He truly believed he was hearing people say things,” O’Neill told The Daily Beast, adding that “this all just happened within the last few months.”

She added, “He would get mad and claim that we didn’t believe him. We tried to listen to him and tell him that nobody was talking about him. Yesterday, as the story was unfolding, we prayed that Rob had nothing to do with this. But when we heard the two places where the shooting happened, my husband rushed home.”

Katie O’Neill is married to Card’s brother. She has also been called Katie Card in some reports.

Local resident Liam Kent told NBC News that Card lived in what was “basically a compound” in Bowdoin, Maine. “The family and Robert, they’re all gun fanatics,” Kent said to NBC. “For all intents and purposes, they are very much associated with right-wing militias. It’s known in the town to stay away from them and not approach them.”

Kent was appalled that Card was a hunter and the family “shot guns all the time.”

According to the New York Daily News, authorities found a note in Card’s home, but they said they are trying to decipher it. They did not disclose the contents.

A federal official told CBS News investigators they found a note inside one of them. Sources say this was not simply a suicide note but would not elaborate further.

CBS reports that at least 80 heavily armed FBI and ATF agents are on the ground. Several searched two homes in Bowdoin on Thursday.
A weapon was also found inside Card’s vehicle, but it’s unclear if it was used during the two shootings.

It does appear that 18 – 22 people have died, 13 were injured, and three are in critical condition.

INITIAL REPORT

Reportedly, at least 22 people are confirmed dead, 50 to 60 injured in a mass shooting in Lewiston, Maine. There is a bolo for Robert Card, driving a 2013 Subaru Outback, in connection with the mass shooting.

Maine State Police are telling residents to shelter in place as the active shooter is on a shooting spree. A restaurant and a bowling alley were reportedly among at least two shooting scenes.

Police, fire, and rescue personnel descended on Sparetime Recreation on Mollison Way about 7:15 p.m. after a report of an active shooter. Shortly after, reports came in that there was another shooting – possibly – at Schemengees Bar & Grille Restaurant on Lincoln Street.

Wednesday’s shootings took place at two locations in Lewiston, Maine — a bowling alley and a restaurant.

Sparetime Recreation, the bowling alley, had families enjoying the evening playing games when the shooting began. Eyewitnesses described seeing people, including children, flee from the location and being patted down outside by police officers. There was also footage of first responders loading a victim into an ambulance outside the business,

The business lies just off the main highway that runs through Lewiston, with an arcade and grill that serves food, according to its website. It regularly hosts special events throughout the week such as “Senior Day” with discounted prices for seniors, and “Glow Bowling” with a DJ.

Schemengees Bar & Grille Restaurant, the second shooting location, hosts parties, family celebrations, and corporate events — with an arcade area that includes dart boards and pool tables, according to its website. The restaurant is equipped with ten pool tables, 14 dart boards, and dozens of TVs to catch all the major sporting events, the bar, the website says.

Police are investigating two shooting scenes.

  1. Per the mentioned NBC News report on neighbor Liam Kent: “Card lived in what was basically a compound. The family and Robert, they’re all gun fanatics. For all intents and purposes, they are very much associated with right-wing militias. It’s known in the town to stay away from them and not approach them.”

    This is at least journalistic bias, and at worst propaganda. Leftist NBC has taken the opinion of Kent and shared it in order to sway the reader. There is zero proof today that any of what Kent stated is true.

    To some leftists, anyone who owns even one gun, and then dares to practice with it, is a “gun fanatic.” Also note that only “right-wing” people can be members of “militias.” The use of “compound” is designed to elicit memories of the Branch Davidians in Waco, TX, in 1993. Finally, the sentiment to “not approach them” is to convey the sense that the Cards in general are a danger and menace to the community.

    This is how the people are fooled and misled. The leftists always try to control the narrative. Push back!

  3. If you talk to some who fought in Destert Storm and later conflicts in the middle east, you may be surprised at what our government can do with 5G technology, with high frequency directed waves, used to put “The voice of Allah!” into the minds of enemy combatants.
    What if you were F.B.I. and you wanted to advance your narrative? What if you watched social media for a candidate that was affiliated with your opponents? What if you knew that this person began the use of electronic devices that would mask your activities? What could you do with your 5G capabilities? None of it can be traced back to you. All of that spells a golden opportunity.

  5. Without knowing, I would not be surprised to find out that he committed suicide.
    Obvious he was showing no respect for human life.

  6. People…he had mental issues ..thats it,,he wasnt fed info from anyone..how stupid are you people to think this stuff that it was through his hearing aid…,,, jezus,,,

    • Why should we believe anything the government says? They have a track record of lying repeatedly to the American People. We know they lied about Las Vegas, where there were 13 separate crime scenes, some of them more than a mile from Paddock’s location, and the government’s own 911 tapes reported multiple shooters. Yet, we’re told Paddock was a “lone nut.”

      If Card was a “wind up toy,” or government asset, it would’ve been fairly simple to modify his hearing aid to make him think he was hearing voices. Much simpler than “voice to skull” technology, which likely does exist as well.

      • so the “government asset” was instructed to go shoot up a bowling ally…everything that goes wrong isnt the government…heears a thought for youo ..maybe he would take out the hearing aids if they started doing odd stuff..that said, maybe the goverment is sending radio waves to your house and making you write this stuff… it could be true,,,think about it…maybe they are controllign you…oh no !

      • Right? That Las Vegas shooting disappeared like it never happened. Once the truth started coming out, the media was ordered to drop all coverage of it.

  8. Not what I wanted to read. Just got my new hearing aids from the VA. There is a scary side note though. The doctor that gave them to me asked if she could monitor my use of them from her office. I just stared in disbelief and said, “What?” She explained that the hearings aids could be monitored from any location. I removed them, placed them on the desk, and said NO, keep them. She became very apologetic and promised it would never happen. So here I am walking around wondering who’s monitoring me. High tech ain’t so great I think.

    • So the voices he was hearing in his head may have been sent – trough his hearing aids – by someone far away…some said it could be the CIA or FBI brainwashing him…

      Now that I know it can be done trough hearing aids, it does not sound like such a silly conspiracy theory anymore…

    • Research MK Ultra. CIA has been working on mind control for a very long time.
      Hearing aids with blue tooth capability are of great concern.

      • There is sooo much info available on v2s, mk-ultra, remote neural monitoring. Decades worth. Ppl need to be aware of the reality. Don’t become paranoid but learn and pay attention.

  10. That’s really weird. You’d think it would be Chris Wray and his boys and not the CIA. A new wrinkle in MK Ultra?

  11. Wow and all this time I thought the whole purpose of hearing aids was to hear VOICES? That was the problem I had when I got mine. I had a hard time hearing VOICES! (I am of course being facetious)

  12. Anyone else notice that, for a MIL-SPEC firearms instructor, Card doesn’t exhibit proper posture with his rifle? Don’t they teach “hunching” your shoulders and making your silhouette/profile as small as possible? I’ll grant he’s on the move in the photos, and perhaps still-frames do not fully display his movements. Just a curiosity…

    • TRANSLATION: News media speak: Arms Instructor…ACTUAL MILITARY JOB TITLE: Unit Armorer. He takes weapons cards and issues weapons. He also locks up all the weapons. Which might explain the full auto some reports have indicated. Unit armorer’s have access to parts for M16 style rifles!!!

  13. I’m going to guess both places were “gun free” zones. Wishful thinking is no defense against hard reality.

  16. A lot of these younger guys use this high THC pot which is NOT safe like the Cannabis industry says, but has a solid link to psychosis and schizophrenia. Hippie pot was 2% THC; today’s average vape is 80% THC. This angle needs to be looked at, so many of these men devolving.

    • I agree it ain’t the same stuff Cheech was sparking up, but this idea that getting couch-lock (like a MOFO, I might add) is suddenly inspiration for all of this active moving about and harshing one’s buzz is absolutely silly. Also, it’s absolutely silly to promote the idea it is a “gateway” drug. I’m a staunch hard-right Bible-believing Conservative (classic liberal of the Jeffersonian flavor), and I started smoking pot at 18.

      Later in life, I got into crack cocaine for two years (out of frustration and depression – not from smoking what God made and saw that it was GOOD). In fact, smoking pot was how I quit the coke. My “friends” at the time wanted to run the streets all night and I was sick of that criminal lifestyle. I began to smoke a bowl (of the old-fashioned stuff, mind you) at about bedtime every night and told my so-called “friends” that I was going to bed – they could do what they want out in the world but I was getting out of that life. BEST decision I ever made – and I probably wouldn’t have been able to break the spell the hard stuff had on me without it.

      The stuff today (wax dabs/vapes – which I have also experienced), certainly doesn’t make ME want to do anything that athletic. And, FWIW, I believe I have schizotypal personality disorder (undiagnosed, however because I don’t want to be on so much as a Tylenol and I know the medical industry would want to screw me all up with pills). Weed ain’t the problem – it’s the pills that send people on these downward spirals (as well as probably brain-meddling by seedy alphabet agency types).

  17. “Police thought Robert Card was in a home in Bowdoin, Maine. It could be his home. The officers breached the home, and he is not in the home.”
    Do we have 5th graders writing for the Sentinel?

    • You failed to cite a grammatical error.

      I can cite one you made. We do not have the Sentinel. We are Sentinel readers. We are consumers of information, not generators.

  18. The CIA’s MK Ultra program has never ended. JFK was right: the CIA should be broken up into 10,000 pieces. It falls to President Trump to finish the job. MAGA!

    • True. The CIA has one goal ONLY: to investigate, initiate, and control Human Behavior. If this dude was indeed a compromised plant, the CIA’s , or other agency is enjoying the outcome.

    • He had four years. He did nothing. Not one federal agency saw any change. Most powerful position in the world. Good luck. He still has not shown one single normal human being he wants from flyover country to work under him should he win again. Wing it, right? Run the clock out.

      • Blah blah blah here is another noisemaking conservative hater, trying to blame Trump for corrupt DC.

        A statement such as “Trump did nothing” shows the poster has no credibility.

        Mark Meadows is from Tennessee, Arkansas, and North Carolina, which proves you wrong again. Rich Grenell is from Missouri. And so on, liar.

  19. Anyone who is ‘appalled’ that someone ‘is a hunter’ has no relevance in an adult conversation and should be treated like an insolent child and dismissed accordingly.

  21. Maine will now be targeted to dispose of the liberty to arm oneself and follow the Massachusetts model of disarming law-abiding citizens. Most actual Mainers own firearms and this has never occurred before. Now a Maine family with guns are militia level scary.

      • Well, I can’t speak to Maine’s state law – NOR the company policies at the entrances to the tavern or bowling alley he shot up, but it’s likely someone somewhere on that food chain doesn’t allow guns in those places? Just venturing a guess. I’m not that surprised, because mass-murdering maniacs target places that don’t allow guns.

  25. Military dude, shooting instructor no less. Treated for hallucinations and voices and murderous ideations in a psych ward, but let him keep all his auto or semi-auto weapons and tons of clips and ammo? Just released too from that psych ward too. Has FBI/CIA all over it. Obama too, the WEF gang, all those gun-grabbing elite tyrannists. This is our real war, against those scumbags and our infiltrated government agencies.

    • The first thing caught my attention, after the headlines, was he was recently released from a psych ward. Sounds like schizophrenic diagnosis. Sorta like all the other mass shooting perps. Nuts, in one way or another. Blue state? Hmmm.

  26. There are >20,000 murders a year in the USA, and >75,000 fentanyl deaths caused by the criminally absent border security and China. That is about 100,000, but it gets tiny coverage.

    • Not as exciting. We just adore a crazy shooting rampage by somebody who snapped (probably because of FBI tinkering with his mind, as usual – so we give up our guns ya know) and sudden mass murders. Makes for great TV, ya know. Normal people entertainment.

  27. Lewiston is full of unwelcome guests. Mostly from somalia. Who were his targets? How long has he been on the FBI radar as needed mental health support?

    • I can tell you are a man who pays attention to reality and real news. My kind of fellow American. Agree completely, our alphabet agencies do evil on behalf of the globalist tyrants to all Americans every day.

  31. Too early to tell if he is liberal or conservative but…

    —Portland attracts crazy leftists like a light bulb attracts moths.

    —and he shot people at a bowling alley…where you are more likely to find right wing people than at say a Starbucks or a pro-Hamas demonstration.

    This is very VERY little information to go on, true, but so far it seems he might be a leftist angry at conservatives.

    I could be totally wrong, he could be a disgruntled ex employee or a man angry that his wife left him, it could be anything.

    but maybe he is a leftist who chose a bowling alley because there are mostly right wingers there…

    But no matter who he is and why he did that, the Main Stream Media will lie and twist things to blame white males, blame conservatives, and maybe blame Trump, and who knows maybe they’ll manage to blame global warming as well!

    • I did make a small mistake, I thought it was Portland Oregon, which is a haven for radical leftists, I think it is where Antifa and BLM were created

      It is actually Portland Maine…

      but as far as I know Maine is also a place full of leftists…

      • No, Portland Maine fits that bill also. As far as leftists.. the cities are full of them but outside of southern Maine (Lewiston south) and Bangor its as red as can be. We’ve been overrun by Mass, CT and NY…

    • Reports coming in that he was a firearms instructor. Might have went nuts. This horrific crime happened in Lewiston, Maine where there have been resettlement camps from Syria, Somalia and many other Muslim countries since 2015. Also read, people have had enough immigration and want it to end. Many feel that we need to help Americans first. I couldn’t agree more.

      • The report say a “firearms instructor in the Army”. That was just his assigned military occupational specialty. Not what he did as a civilian.
