Frank R James
Heavy has confirmed that Frank James had a Facebook page in the name Frank Whitaker. The page contains images of guns and describes Black nationalism as black unity, in addition to criticizing former President Donald Trump and posting about racism.
In October 2021, he wrote on Facebook, I FEEL LIKE SOMETHING IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN. The Facebook page, which is in another name, but contains photos and YouTube video frames linked to him by NYPD, also contains a photo of a body bag. He shared that body bag photo several other times with different captions, including, Better late than never payback and hurt people kill people please dont hurt me and its never to late to say I love you only death could stop me.
In 2014, he wrote, Just cuckoo
no cocoa puffs. He shared posts about gas prices and the nomination of Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson. One of his posts was anti-gay. He wrote, love thy neighbor. Hes gay, nevermind.
Dorian Gray
(13,498 posts)He's very disturbed. And dangerous. I'm hoping the NYPD/FBI catch him asap.

(5,559 posts)Very interested to learn how he got the guns. Someone with a profile like that should absolutely be blocked from buying them.
Ghost gun prohibition poster child? News is saying he had a Glock, and even I know that those are one of the guns that are so easy to build at home.

(5,559 posts)Private sales are not allowed for hand guns, one of the better laws the state has on guns. The state also has a registry for them.
This is why the ghost gun possibility comes to mind.
