Updated EST 7:55 PM: Suspected shooter Jared Loughner's once obscure profile is leaking out into the open. There's this Arizona Republic picture from March of 2010 (the same month Giffords talked to MSNBC about the danger of Sarah Palin's "target ad") that shows Loughner at a local book fair. Loughner's apparent Youtube videos focus on such wide ranging topics as currency, the Constitution, and "mind control." A Loughner MySpace profile also surfaced--though it was quickly taken down.
Updated EST 7:00 PM: From the New York Times: Latest tally is 17 people shot, six dead. Latest update on Giffords is "critical condition."
Updated EST 6:10 PM: A woman named Caitie Parker has also aroused much web speculation. Parker (via Twitter) claims to have known gunman Jared Loughner from high school, where she states that he was "left wing." Though her relationship to Loughner is unconfirmed as of yet, Parker's updates are gaining traction as people frantically search for information.
Updated EST 5:51 PM Web speculation is circulating in regards to political videos made by a "Jared Loughner." We do not have verification that this is the same person currently held in custody. One of the videos is titled, "My Final Thoughts."
