LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY: Connor Sturgeon, a 25-year-old disgruntled worker, opened fire at a bank in Louisville, Kentucky, on Monday, killing five people in total. He was then fatally shot onsite. Police identified the victims as Joshua Barrick, 40; Thomas Elliot, 63; Juliana Farmer, 45; and James Tutt, 64. One of the injured, named 57-year-old Deana Eckert later died, officials said on Monday, April 10.
Recently, it has come to light that the gunman's social media accounts have been deleted, and conspiracy theorists are making ludicrous allegations. A Twitter user named Paul A Szypula wrote in his tweet, "They’re already wiping the social media postings of Louisville mass-murderer Connor Sturgeon."

According to a law enforcement source familiar with the inquiry, Sturgeon had been employed by the bank for more than a year. He live-streamed his assault on Instagram, and the footage has since been taken down. Interim Louisville Metro Police Chief Jacquelyn Gwinn-Villaroel stated earlier on Monday that police were "hopeful" they might get the livestream footage taken offline. "I will say this, that the suspect was live streaming. And unfortunately, that’s tragic. To know that that incident was out there and captured," Gwinn-Villaroel stated, as reported by CNN.

Democrats don’t want you to know what their ideology does to people."
'Another depressed manipulated liberal'
A user said, "They always nuke the social media of shooters. This isn’t new." Another user claimed, "It doesn’t seem “Trump” supporters are the problem. Seems it’s the “anti-Trump” supporters taking the lives of innocent people because of their own issues."
One person noted, "He literally LIVE STREAMED the murder, that’s why all of his shit has been disabled." "You’d think by know they would know to do this *before* they send in their wind-up toy," penned a user. One person mentioned, "They promote confusion and lunacy." "Another democrat committed mass murder today & we still don't have Audrey Hale's manifesto, or foiled shooter, William "Lilly" Whitworth's manifesto & now Connor Sturgeon's social media is being wiped," a user remarked.
"It's not the guns, it's affirming mental illness instead of treating it." One person wrote, "Maybe you should tell the GOP to fund mental health, instead in of funding their obsession with guns." "Guns don't kill people, Democrats do," remarked one user. "Louisville mass murderer Connor Sturgeon's social media accounts are already being wiped out," detailed another person, adding, "These were the anti-Trump and pro-lockdown posts on Reddit under an account with the same name as his already deleted Twitter account. Another depressed manipulated liberal."
