He injured twelve people in a burst with a pistol?

Why didn't people charge him, or something else? I never get that.

At the Wind River Indian Reservation in my state law enforcement remains the exclusive domain of the tribes, to handle as they see fit. IRC, treaties bar federal troops from even setting foot on the reservation. Several years ago a man shot up his entire family. One of his wounded relatives phoned the tribal police, who in turn waited at the perimeter while everyone to bled to death. The man finally committed suicide. American Indians look at death as part of life.

I read that he had two handguns and a shotgun.

Too bad a teacher and/or administrator didn't have ready access to firearms so they could have possibly stopped this nutcase early on.
