It was like that with the Fort Hood mass murderer and no doubt somebody near the Dutch cop and the Canadian colonel suspected something was amiss and only assembled the pieces with hindsight.
Well the same could be said of anyone regardless of their social position. The 9-11 hijackers were not in positions of authority yet the pieces in their cases were still not assembled until after the fact.
