[FoxNews] UMass Amherst student Eric Tarpinian-Jachym, who interned for Kansas Rep. Ron Estes, was not the intended target, police said

Congressional intern Eric Tarpinian-Jachym, a 21-year-old student at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, died after he was shot around 10:28 p.m. on the 1200 block of 7th Street, Northwest in Washington, D.C. on Monday night, according to police, and died on Tuesday. An adult female and a 16-year-old male were also shot and taken to local hospitals.
Party guy, or procurer?
Apparently unrelated and not targetted as well. From his pic he looks like a political dweeb
According to the Metropolitan Police Department, multiple individuals exited a car and began firing at a group of people. Tarpinian-Jachym isn't believed to have been the intended target of the shooting, officials said.

Tarpinian-Jachym was an intern for Rep. Ron Estes (R-Kan.), according to a statement from his office. He was a rising senior majoring in finance with a minor in political science at the University of Massachusetts Amherst.

Tarpinian-Jachym also participated in a spring fellowship with The Fund for American Studies, which said the college student's hometown is Aberdeen, Mississippi.

#1  RIP.

My high school had a Washington internship program back in the 80’s. I understand that it can be a way to make connections, but it seems like an apprenticeship at a brothel in Mogadishu. It’s just a bad idea. Most of the Congressmen are degenerate jerks to begin with.
