The divorce happened when the “boy” was 17, almost 18. He was grown when it happened. He had his father when he was growing up so this is not an absent father case to blame this on.

Sorry, but you had a young man out of control, living with a single mother. You really think the dynamics would be the same in a household that had a man in it? You don’t think there would have been some push-back on his behavior if a man had been in the house?
He had his father when he was growing up so this is not an absent father case to blame this on.You assume facts not presented. A divorce is the end, during the prior years, where was dad? His million dollar a year job did not come cheap perhaps.

From what we have been told, the shooter’s problems were becoming worse..In situations where these problems are life long, when does the Father’s responsibility end? It is obvious that the Mother, alone, did not make the hard decisions in time to save her own life and those of his victims. Divorce is not easy on adult children, either. From my perspective of knowing lots of divorced people, it seems that adult children, in some cases, suffer as much as the young ones. In this case, we cannot make judgments on this father for he could have been in circumstances which would have made his close involvement impossible.

Bullshit.
