The police department issued a statement saying, "After conducting interviews with Nolen's co-workers, information was obtained that he recently started trying to convert several employees to the Muslim religion. Due to the manner of death and the initial statements of co-workers and other initial information, the Moore Police Department requested the assistance of the FBI in conducting a background investigation on Nolan."

Maybe not linked to ISIS, but I'm thinking he was part of radical Islam (or thought he was)? Beheading someone is a making a major statement, there are very few killers who behead their victims. Since it seems that Nolen had no previous interactions with the women he attacked, he was making a statement about something.
Beheading a person takes more time than cutting their throat or stabbing them repeatedly. I looked for data on beheading as method of murder in the US, but couldn't find any stats. However, as a crime junkie I know that I can recall only a double handful of cases where the victim was beheaded. (Even OJ didn't quite behead Nicole and he was truly pissed at her.)
It could be.Though this guy was converting to Islam not trying to be a part of ISIS.I think if it had anything to.do with ISIS he would of made it known as they want everyone to know that their actions are linked to their organization, which is why they're videotaping their beheadings.
It could've also been an act of violence influenced by all of the media coverage on ISIS.
But I guess we won't know until they investigate further.
Sad story all around and scary as hell if it is related to ISIS since this happened in Oklahoma which is only a state above me.
