The gunman responsible for killing seven people and injuring 22 others – including three law enforcement officials — is Seth Aaron Ator, 36, of Odessa, the city of Odessa’s spokeswoman said in an email.
Odessa Police Department Chief Michael Gerke said Ator fired at random, using an AR as he drove nearly 10 miles around Midland and Odessa. He was shot and killed by law enforcement at Cinergy theater in Odessa.
U.S. Rep. Tom Craddick told the Reporter-Telegram he had previously failed a background check.

There is a mountain of info besides his name he could give us, but isn’t.

I note the all Black shooting in Alabama is nowhere on the radar.

No idea. That is just what is being reported. I don’t normally use google, but I will have to see what comes up with them.

More important than the perp's name might be the circumstances.

I posted earlier on a different thread that I'm keenly interested if he had narcs in his system, especially if methamphetamine was present.

Also interested if he may have been a dealer.

All curiosities and conjectures, I know nothing and await full info when it eventually follows. .

““I’m not going to give him any notoriety for what he did,” he added. “

God, I hope he didn’t do one of those 80% builds.

Upholding the best & oldest FR tradition, I see - not reading the article. If I were on a computer instead of my phone, I would post the oldest Internet meme in order to answer your need for information. Here’s a clue...think Dr. “Bones” McCoy and his oft-quoted Star Trek line to Captain Kirk...

I think that is his point. The name is available, and if the press wants to publish it, it is the press' decision.

Maybe this is a good thing. Maybe one punishment is that their names are put out of general news media. Not that it won’t be listed and official, just that they don’t get what for them is a common public “honor”where their names end up as household words.
