[1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.'] Date: 2023-10-30 Just reporting what one of our local news stations reports today: At a news conference Monday, Garfield County Sheriff Lou Vallario said the man was found in a women's bathroom, near a stall. The suspect's motive was unclear, but Vallario said there was writing in a bathroom stall that said, "I'm not a killer. I just wanted to get into the caves." The sheriff could not confirm whether the man wrote that. The Garfield County Coroner's Office identified the man as Diego Barajas Medina and said he died of a gunshot wound. The coroner's office said it was investigating the death as a suicide. Earlier Monday, the sheriff’s office said that the man, from the Carbondale area, was dressed in black-colored tactical clothing, bearing patches and emblems that gave the appearance of being associated with law enforcement. He was heavily armed with a semi-automatic rifle, a semi-automatic handgun, multiple loaded magazines for both weapons and improvised explosive devices (IEDs). He was wearing body armor and what appeared to be a ballistic helmet. Vallario said the man had pipe bombs and that his firearms were ghost guns. He said the suspect had a combination of real and fake weapons. The nutcases are coming out of the walls (and maybe caves) all around the country. All I can say is this will hopefully lead to some answers, but I’m also glad no little kid found the body and decided to play with the various weapons. Colorado is way too familiar with all this kind of sh*t. If someone has already reported this, I apologize for having missed it and I’ll take this diary down if nothing is new news.
