"It’s not a question of if, but when," behavioral analyst Susan Constantine told Fox News Digital after the attack. "This time, it was the perfect storm, when nobody would have expected it.
"They’re very clever and very intelligent people that carry these kinds of acts out. It was, in my opinion, a hate crime and a terrorist attack on an individual that was threatening their belief system."
