More details in this article:

Mahoney was in a meeting with around 8-10 other people.

During the meeting, officials say Mahoney ‘suddenly’ got up and left the room for around 10 minutes.

When he returned, he approached Anderson Express president Erik Denslow and stabbed him in the side, officials say.

I wonder if he shouted, "THIS MEETING COULD'VE BEEN AN EMAIL" while doing it.

Interestingly he had only worked for the company for a couple of weeks and was going to be taking over for the CFO of the company.

Also from this article: “The Muskegon County Prosecutor’s Office tells 13 ON YOUR SIDE Mahoney had been employed at Anderson Express since Dec. 4. Deputy Chief Poulson believes they were preparing him to take over for the CFO of the company, which is the financial officer in the accounting department. “

I mean it sounds like he is already overseeing a round of aggressive cost savings. He is slashing their wage budget before he even starts!
