Igor had one other daughter, Rebecca Lanis, who was not house on the time of the assault. She has determined to talk out about what occurred to her household. So far she has offered the one glimpse right into a motive for her father’s stunning actions — he was radicalized by Q.

“In 2020 after Trump misplaced, my dad began happening the Q rabbit gap. He saved studying conspiracy theories in regards to the stolen election, Trump, vaccines, and so on. He all the time mentioned he wished to maintain us protected and wholesome.”

That need acquired twisted by the positioning, which spreads weird misinformation, together with the concept the main Democrats are all a part of a cannibalistic cabal of kid molesters that Donald Trump is secretly waging a one-man battle in opposition to. Rebecca continued:

“It saved getting worse and he verbally snapped at us just a few occasions. Nothing bodily although. He by no means acquired bodily with anyone.”

So far as anybody might inform, earlier than Q, Igor was a mild man, identified to neighbors as “the man with the fluffy white canine” for his frequent walks together with his “stunning” Nice Pyrenees. The identical canine he shot a number of occasions with a shotgun.

As Rebecca lamented:

“If any of you could have kin like this, it’s worthwhile to begin monitoring them, particularly if they’ve weapons. If they’ve weapons, you need to simply cover them or one thing as a result of these individuals are harmful.”

We couldn’t agree extra. We’ve been making an attempt to get this message out for months now. If somebody you like is being twisted by Q, you’ll be able to’t simply ignore it and hope it’ll go away. It’s solely going to worsen. Please, please, search out skilled assist for them. Arrange an intervention.

Couldn’t have mentioned it higher ourselves.
