Brother-in-law of Boulder Grocery Store Shooter Defines him as a Democrat

Boulder grocery store shooter is 'a stupid loner' who lived in basement of family's $800,000 home, worked in their Middle Eastern restaurant and has never had a girlfriend, brother-in-law reveals.

Ahmad Alissa, 21, is in custody in Boulder on ten counts of murder. He will make his first court appearance on Thursday. On Monday, he opened fire on the King Soopers grocery store in Boulder, murdering ten people before handing himself in. I

t's unclear what his motive is but a picture of the gunman has emerged through descriptions from friends, family and former high school classmates. They describe him as 'paranoid', 'anti-social', 'violent' and some say he has the temper 'of a demon'. 

Social media posts from his Facebook page also indicate his frame of mind. He ranted about Islamophobes and against President Trump. 

Now, his brother-in-law is speaking out to reveal more details of his introverted lifestyle. 'He was a loner, just sitting to the side, not with us. It was strange. He lived with his family and lived in the basement at their home. He works with his family, his brothers, at their restaurant. There was never a girlfriend and not many friends. 'He has a reputation for being stupid, not smart. He was not like a proper Muslim, I don't know what kind of Muslim he was. He did not go to the mosque I go to,' his brother-in-law Usame Almusa said.
