classic false flag elements
>known to the police
>small-time criminal record
>psychiatric history giving opportunity for mind control
Espen Andersen Braathen (Bråthen), was 'known to the police' with a record for lesser crimes - burglary, cannabis, threatening one of his parents
officers had prior contact with him over concerns he was becoming radicalised
an acquaintance told [Norwegian media] that the alleged killer had long suffered serious mental health problems, and authorities say he will now be assessed by forensic psychiatric experts
a concerned friend flagged videos that Braathen had put online ... he confirmed he was a Muslim and described himself as a 'messenger' with a 'warning'
The head of Norway's intelligence service, Hans Sverre Sjoevold, told reporters 'the whole act appears to be an act of terror'
