Then he would have been a pharmacy tech and not a lab tech, and as an RN, I’ve done traveling nursing so I know about the contracts. A “Lab tech” wouldn’t have access, so it’s bad journalism or something else going on. I think we need to call them out when they try to pass off this kind of bad reporting.

I agree. You are right. As a lab tech he should not have had the easy access. That’s why I am thinking bad journalism.

Punish him however you want, fine by me, but he’s not an Aurora kook, he’s a drug abuser and he was seeking a fix and found his fix—which is why he was on the move so much. He didn’t care who he hurt, but that is not the same as intentional mass murder.
