From NY Post: The armed madman who was shot and killed by Secret Service after he snuck onto President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate Sunday was reportedly obsessed with the Epstein files — and implored others to “raise awareness” just days before the deadly encounter.
Austin Tucker Martin, 21, was gunned down by local Florida police and members of the Secret Service after he brandished his shotgun in a “shooting position” on Trump’s property, authorities said.
He was reported missing by his family after he vanished on Saturday. His mother, Melissa Martin, made a missing person poster for him, describing the silver Volkswagen he was likely driving.
In a series of bizarre text messages, Martin shared his ideas about the Epstein files with a coworker on Feb. 15.
“I don’t know if you read up on the Epstein Files, but evil is real and unmistakable,” he wrote.
“The best people like you and I can do is use what little influence we have. Tell other people about what you hear about the Epstein files and what the government is doing about it. Raise awareness,” he added.
The coworker never responded to the messages.
Other colleagues said Martin felt there was a concerted government campaign to cover up the Epstein files so elites could continue “getting away with it.”
