The 62-year-old man accused of shooting 10 people and injuring more than a dozen others committed a “premeditated” rush-hour transit attack that triggered the worst commute disruption the city has seen in 20 years, federal prosecutors said Thursday. Suspect Frank James, wearing a beige prison uniform, nodded when a judge asked him if he understood the federal charge against him….
An erratic work history. Arrests for a string of mostly low-level crimes. A storage locker with more ammo. And hours of rambling, bigoted, profanity-laced videos on his YouTube channel that point to a deep, simmering anger.
Police said their top priority was getting the suspect, who has since been charged, off the streets as they investigate their biggest unanswered question: Why? In a video posted a day before the attack, James criticizes crime against Black people and says things would only change if certain people were"stomped, kicked and tortured" out of their"comfort zone.", dressed as a maintenance or construction worker in a yellow hard hat and orange working jacket with reflective tape.
That key led investigators to James, and clues to a life of setbacks and anger as he bounced among factory and maintenance jobs, got fired at least twice, moved among Milwaukee, Philadelphia, New Jersey and New York.
