The suspect wanted
for killing two people and injuring nine others at Brown University in Rhode Island,
has been found dead in Salem, Mass, New Hampshire.
He's been identified as 48-year-old Claudio Nieves-Valente,
a naturalized citizen from Portugal and former Brown student.
U.S.
Attorney Lea Foley explains how Valente likely avoided being captured.
He was using a phone that was obfuscating ability to track it,
and he was using financial, like not credit cards that were tied to his name.
And so he was sophisticated in hiding his tracks.
Foley says Valente is also suspected in the murder of an MIT professor in Massachusetts on Monday,
then traveling to New Hampshire, where he apparently took his own life.
