The only thing I am struggling with is when did he kill his roommates in relation to leaving the home to kill.
If you think about it is takes both good timing, energy, and time to stab three healthy young bucks. It id n't say he had any military or martial arts training thus I am wondering if he killed them either throughout the day or before sending the whacked out emails to his therapist and family.
It sounds as though he sent out the email right before getting in his car and he lived in Isla Vista. So that took two seconds to start his killing. My thought is the therapist called the Mom as soon as she got the email and checked it out. Mom checked out the sites, called Dad, called 9-11 and they headed up here to try to intervene and/or do something to stop their son as at that time they did not know he had done anything.
I would think they were very concerned when they heard about mass killing in Santa Barbara on the way up here. Yet that sort of information is still difficult to process emotionally. That your own child may have just killed a bunch of people.
Having said all of this. I do wish Daddy O would have spent more time with his son that was clearly struggling. Rather then spend his off time shooting women's uh, hmmm, glutes. What a selfish jerk! He new wife sounded just as narcissistic.
So, you hear about the incident, assume it’s your son although the shooter hasn’t been identified yet, so you turn around and go home?
