What are the odds that he already killed himself? I am not a psychologist, but it seems that young men who become overly attached to their female partners cannot imagine life without them. They view break up as the end of the world, and react by striking out. Once they have killed the female, there is nothing to live for.

Pure speculation on my part.

The people on WEEI radio this morning said that there were three 911 calls from the parents house the day he came home to Florida.

So, something was going on that day to cause alarm.

This presumes he was overly attached to her. I'm not sure that was the case. My gut impression is that she was kind of a plaything/diversion for him that got out of this control. I could be wrong. Wouldn't be the first time.

Perhaps so. On the other hand, many think he shows signs of sociopathy/narcissism, as indicated by a lack of empathy among other things. These types rarely commit suicide.

I knew someone that was like that and he threatened to kill the woman several times and also threatened suicide if she didn’t stay with him. He was insane.
