Per The New York Post:
Still-at-large Maine mass shooting suspect Robert Card appears to have targeted a deaf cornhole night during his deadly rampage.
Four of the eight killed at Schemengees Bar & Grille Wednesday night had attended a cornhole night for deaf people at the venue.
Card — an avid cornhole player — had recently suffered significant hearing loss and taken to wearing high powered hearing aids, his family told the Daily Beast following the massacre.
NBC News reported on Wednesday that Robert began to hear “horrible” voices talking to him shortly after he was “fitted for high-powered hearing aids.”
Katie Card told NBC, “He was picking up voices that he had never heard.”
