[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Mickael Harpon,
    ...previously in our archives under the more conventional spelling of Michael Harpon...
    45, returned to work Thursday with an oyster knife and a 13” kitchen knife to stab four colleagues to death in lunchtime attack at police HQ

  • French interior minister Christophe Castaner conceded 'there were obvious failings' on Sunday

  • He had initially claimed Harpon hadn't given the 'slightest reason for alarm'

  • But Harpon had praised the Charlie Hebdo massacre while at work in 2015, had links to a Val-d'Oise hate preacher known to French intelligence, and wore traditional Islamic garments to the mosque

  • Harpon’s 38 year old wife was released without charges Sunday evening

#1  Obviously, we never shared our 'lessons learned' about Hasan. If you never change your behavior, you never learned a lesson.
