FBI probes Muslim convert who beheaded female co worker in Oklahoma
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...-Oklahoma.html
A fired employee who had been trying to convert co-workers to Islam stabbed two female colleagues - beheading one of them - before an off-duty officer shot him, police have said.
Alton Alexander Nolen, who converted to Islam during a recent stint in prison, was fired from Vaughan Foods, a food processing plant in Moore, Oklahoma, on Thursday before returning to his SUV and smashing it into another vehicle.
The 30-year-old then climbed out and entered the building, attacking the first two people he saw with a knife he had used at the plant, Moore Police Sergeant Jeremy Lewis said.
After beheading Colleen Hufford, 54, and stabbing Traci Johnson, 43, Nolen was shot and wounded by off-duty sheriff's deputy and company CEO Mark Vaughan.
Nolen survived and was hospitalized. Johnson is in stable condition in hospital.
The FBI is now investigating Nolen's recent conversion to Islam to determine whether it was connected to the attack.
Sergeant Lewis, who said he does not know why Nolen was fired, added that police are waiting until he was conscious before they move forward with charges.
On Friday, Lewis said that Nolen had been trying to convert co-workers to Islam and that local police had contacted the FBI to help investigate the man's background, KFOR reported.
Co-workers said Nolen himself had only just converted to Islam, according to News9. It is not yet known if his beliefs played a role in the attack.
There were no immediate indications of a link to terrorism, officials said.
Announcing the FBI's involvement in the case, police released a statement saying: 'After conducting interviews with Nolen's co-workers, information was obtained that he recently started trying to convert several employees to the Muslim religion.
'Due to the manner of death and the initial statements of co-workers and other initial information, the Moore Police Department requested the assistance of the FBI in conducting a background investigation on Nolan.'
Records show Nolen has a long previous criminal record including assault and battery on an officer, possession of a controlled substance and possession of cocaine with the intent to distribute.
In 2010 he was charged with assault and battery of a police officer after being pulled over for having a fake license plate.
He was discovered to be driving with a suspended license and when the officer tried to cuff him he pushed him hard in the chest and bolted.
According to Oklahoma State Court Records, there was 'a massive manhunt involving four law enforcement agencies, two helicopters... and lasted for over 12 hours.'
As part of his sentence – five years with all but the first two suspended – he was ordered to attend an anger management course. He was last released from jail in March 2013, according to records.
Records also reveal he has a tattoo of Jesus on his chest and praying hands on his arm.
He also has 'Assalamu Alaikum' - a greeting often used by Muslims meaning 'may peace be on you' - on his abdomen.

Shouldn't he be charged with a hate crime? A Muslim man killing non-Muslims (as directed by the Koran) and beheading them (as done by current Muslim extremists).

I don't really know about the hate crime charge but giving his past crimes and now this I just don't see why he wouldn't be executed. He has been given enough chances and just continues to hurt innocent people.

I had the same question as Duane. How is this not a hate-crime? If it was done to a homesexual or white on black (or vice-versa) it would absolutely be considered a hate crime. I am a bit tired of our treatment of the Muslims community in this country. Let's call a spade a spade, what is the media afraid of?

How can this be a hate crime when the media refuses to entertain the killer's link with Islam? It is scary how agenda driven the media is today.

They are entertaining it, but very reluctantly, from what I've seen.

A fired Oklahoma City nursing home worker was arrested for threatening to cut off a co-worker's head - the day after a Muslim convert allegedly beheaded his colleague just 20 miles away.
Jacob Mugambi Muriithi, a Kenyan native who claims he 'represents ISIS,' made the threats at Bellevue Nursing Home, in Oklahoma City hours after Alton Alexander Nolen was named as the suspect in the brutal murder at Vaughan Foods.
The 30-year-old Muslim allegedly told the victim he was going to cut her head off with a blade and then post the footage on Facebook while they were working together last Thursday.
According to The Oklahoman, the victim who has not been named, then asked Muriithi why the group killed Christians and he reportedly said: 'This is just what we do.'
A detective investigating the case wrote: 'The victim said Jacob asked her what time she got off work and she replied by asking him in a joking manner if he was going to kill her.
'Jacob told the victim, "Yes," he was going to cut her head off. The victim asked Jacob what he was going to cut her head off with and he said, 'A blade,' then told her after he did it he was going to post it on Facebook.'
They added: 'The victim said Jacob was serious when speaking and never made any statements that he was joking or playing around.'
He was arrested the same day and is now being held on terrorism charges in Oklahoma County Jail with his bail set at $1million.
