The threats were made 2 months before the murders and it was on the internet. So, the odds of that happening.... pretty slim. You don't see many murders that were related to a commotion on the internet.

friends of the slain family said Hossam Armanious received death threats two months ago after writing what were perceived as insults to Islam.
Friends of the slain family SAID that. But that doesn't make it a fact. Hearsay and speculation as far I am concerned. People really jumped the gun on this one. An investigation is obviously being done as speak, and they already had downplayed the "religion" factor according to recent reports. I read in an article saying that their pockets were emptied, and money were stolen from the house with some other things. The police had said that they were pretty sure that the family and their house were robbed.
