Man suspected in Brown University shooting and MIT professor’s killing found dead, officials say

Claudio Neves Valente, a former Brown PhD student, killed three people and wounded nine before dying by suicide in a New Hampshire storage unit, police said.

  • Claudio Neves Valente was identified as the Brown University shooting suspect, prompting the Trump administration to intensify immigration restrictions following his death.
  • Valente's immigration record shows he first arrived on a visa in 2000 at Brown University, entered via the green card lottery, then obtained a diversity visa in 2017 and permanent residency.
  • Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced suspension of the DV1 program, calling it `disastrous` and tweeting `This heinous individual should never have been allowed in our country.`
  • Officials note the policy shift continues a pattern of post-attack restrictions, as the administration suspends the Diversity Immigrant visa lottery program offering up to 55,000 visas annually and echoes an expanded travel ban affecting 39 countries.
  • Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons warned of vetting challenges on Fox Business Friday, urging a hard look as officials cited the Brown suspect's death and an MIT professor's murder.
