Social Media (reddit) identified the alleged shooter over two hours ago. The alleged shooter has a youtube channel with some pretty sad/horrific videos of his plans. The video in question, uploaded last night, was asked about at the press conference around 3:00 am. The reporter identified the alleged shooter’s name and the video (his self-identified “last video”).
Horrible
He posted a video on youtube saying he was going to do this earlier in the day
Shocking story. Sad and alarmed to hear this.
He did.
Sent you a Freep mail with a link.
Must be Amish trouble makers again....
Was this one shooting, did the shooter off himself, did the cops off the guy or what? First it says the Santa Barbara area and then mentions it happened in a student frequented area then the black BMW struck 2 cars and someone else was being held, for some reason the story doesn’t seem coherent to me. It is early and I haven’t had my first coffee, may be it.
He shot as he drove, multiple sites.

The alleged shooter and his manifest youtube video are mention in the comments of this article.
If the mentioned “alleged shooter” at the presser is the same one with the youtubes/bodybuilding forum posts, he is a very disturbed guy whom hated women because they didn’t like him. He lived the rich/hollywood life, yet was tormented by it and now 6 lives are lost. (i’m not counting the shooter’s life) and 7 are injured. He had been vocal about his unhappiness. I wonder if he was on medication?
Interesting video of the loser creep. Even if he could get a girl into bed he would have lulled her to sleep with his boring conversation before anything happened. And the loser couldn’t even get his fantasy right of going into the sorority house and killing all of the girls.
Obviously he had several screws loose. Too bad those types can’t be committed before they ruin the lives of so many people, and so many families.
my niece, who just celebrated her 22nd birthday, is graduating from UCSB this spring... she is currently on vacation in Southeast Asia... Thailand today... i am glad she was not on campus...
Yes. He even mentioned in a forum that he (the alleged shooter) had to take his youtube videos off his channel because his parents saw them. Apparently he uploaded them again yesterday. People on the bodybuilding forums saw his videos also (before the shooting) and he (the alleged shooter) had an active thread going on about why girls didn’t like him.
May his victims rest in peace and may their families find comfort.
Amen
A lot of the threads that the shooter was on (the bodybuilding site) have been deleted the last hour. I have no doubt that someone has already preserved them, as well as the youtube channel the “alleged shooter” uploaded to.
Thailand today may be much more dangerous than that campus.
Hope she doesn’t go there.
Gangs in control in the inner and outer cities, politians find it easy to blame guns on our streets rather than take on the gangs
White kid
He calls himself “Eurasian”. British father/Asian mother.
This man had warning signs on various forum posts and videos. Horrific for the victims.
