ISIS Terror Killing in Paris Streamed live on Facebook


The French police commander was just coming home to his partner and their three-year-old son in the Paris bedroom community of Magnanville. Jovial and well-liked in Les Mureaux’s police station on the outskirts of the French capital, he had been—like all members of the French police these days—under considerable strain. Even with 90,000 cops, soldiers and other security forces deployed in the country, law enforcement has been stretched thin by floods, strikes, the Euro 16 soccer championship, hooligan riots, and the now ever-present threat of jihadist violence.


Then that murderous jihadist rage came after the commander with a vengeance, as a lone attacker stabbed him to death outside his house.


A French special weapons and tactics unit (RAID) killed the assailant, but found inside the house the commander’s slaughtered partner, who worked as a secretary in another police station, and her three-year-old son, who was still alive, physically unhurt.


The child had seen it all. We know that, because the killer live-streamed the slaughter on Facebook.

The more people watch the faster the victim dies I think was the setup.
