A review of more than 800 tweets by The Capital Gazette shooting suspect shows a man obsessed with the newspaper. https://usat.ly/2lH3HvL pic.twitter.com/TtOtPegVhG
Court papers show that the suspect, Jarrod Ramos, had filed a defamation suit against the newspaper in 2012. https://usat.ly/2lG8nSF pic.twitter.com/5smzaTVDFS
Tweets spanning seven years also showed that he was obsessed with reporter Eric Thomas Hartley who had written the article on Ramos in July 2011.pic.twitter.com/WYXO0qwRJY
Since Nov. 20 2011, Ramos mentioned former Capital Gazette publisher Tom Marquardt by name or as "Evil Tom" in tweets nearly 100 times.pic.twitter.com/L0deJnHP2p
A judge threw out Ramos' lawsuit and said he "fails to come close to alleging a case of defamation."pic.twitter.com/nUZVvjuNdO
A Maryland appeals court further concluded that everything printed in the July 2011 newspaper story about Ramos appeared to be true.pic.twitter.com/YQvNZMY5v8
Ramos' final tweet was sent at 11:37 a.m., just hours before the fatal shootings on Thursday. https://usat.ly/2lH3HvL pic.twitter.com/qDlEBij4u0
(Correction on last tweet: The previous version of the graphic dated Baltimore Metro News' tweet as Jan. 28) Ramos' final tweet was sent at 11:37 a.m., just hours before the fatal shootings on Thursday. https://usat.ly/2lH3HvL pic.twitter.com/6ocubAjvHn
