Why, what difference does it make for him? If he was sane he wouldn't be going round killing anyone..

I don't remember this either, which is odd considering a couple of Brits were involved.

I saw something on TV today and it was a guy that had given him some sort of psyciatric assesment or something and he said the reason that he went off and on a killing spree like that is because a few year or months before that his father shot him self and he was like best friends with him, then he was really good friends with some elderly women and she died and that basicly sent him over the edge.
It was a case of try and take as many people out before he killed him self thing i think.
The thing i dont get is that he never ended up killing himself.

He now has to spend the rest of his life in jail.

RIP all 35 people

Not that it's telling of anything but the gun used by this murderer is nearly identical to the one held by Al Pacino in the OcUK Don avatar.
