Investigating Recent Terror-Related Incidents

This chapter investigates two recent potentially terror-related incidents: a deadly attack in New Orleans and an explosion at a Trump Hotel in Las Vegas. It critiques the media's portrayal of these events, explores the background of the perpetrators, and discusses the implications for security measures against such threats. By analyzing motivations and the interplay of mental health and ideology, the chapter raises important questions about the classification of terrorist acts and the adequacy of law enforcement responses.
