First, let me unequivocally say that what this man did was wrong, but he did it for a reason.

He did not just go off and decide to kill coworkers for no reason. Someone in that group of people had been saying things to him, or about him, or, had been doing something to him that enraged him. To go and shoot them was NOT the solution at all, but some deficiency in his character caused him to lose control and kill.

Now, to the main argument of this statement. Every time this happens, the authorities and some in the media KNOW why it actually happened, but they do NOT report it. I would like to know why? Please answer the question, officials.

There were reports of "violent encounters" between Craddock an co-workers in recent weeks. That may have been the impetus for a "resign in lieu of termination" demand. There is also no discussion of whether he was treated for depression including use of SSRI type drugs. Those are frequently an element in a mass shooting event. Violent interactions are commonly observed symptoms in SSRI users.

Response:

Look up: Wound Collectors

Like Cristopher Dorner (remember him? The cop that went on a shooting spree?)

https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/spycatcher/201304/wound-collectors

Excerpt:

“wound collector” ... refers to individuals, ... who, because of personality traits: collect social slights, historical grievances, or wrongs for reasons that personally benefit them or their belief system. The collection of these grievances goes beyond what one normally experiences in life; after all, we have all had slights and we have all been unfairly treated at some point. These individuals use these wrongs, slights, or wounds, to then justify their beliefs or behaviors, or to help them deal with their own psychological or social distress.

What is the definition of a wound collector or wound collecting?

Wound collecting is the conscious and systematic collection and preservation of transgressions, violations, social wrongs, grievances, injustice, unfair treatment, or slights of self and others, for the purpose of nourishing, fortifying, or justifying a malignant ideology, furthering hatred, satisfying a pathology, or for exacting revenge.
