I understand that people want answers quickly, but it's been less than a day.
It's very difficult to correct mistakes, and if they misreport that he was a maga, or a democrat, or whatever. If someone else has the same name, and the wrong info gets mixed in, that'll just get passed around as truth by whoever thinks it's politically expedient.
Let's give it a few days to let the dust settle and find out if we're even talking about the right person before we start saying who he is and what he believes.
How about we not give this guy any fame at all? Let law enforcement handle it. The more fame these attempt draw the more it'll encourage others.
