“To the Feds, I’ll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country. To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn’t working with anyone,” the document said, according to the official.

It also had a line that said, “I do apologize for any strife or traumas but it had to be done. Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming.”

    I too love going to mcdonalds with the 3D-printed gun I did a crime with last week, a handwritten manifesto (to give to the mcdonalds cashier presumably) and a fake ID. I'm certainly the same person that meticulously planned a killing and successfully got away without a trace. /s
