A man that feels he has nothing to lose is a dangerous thing.

Turns out the dude was likely involved with CSAM, as his brother was arrested for it almost immediately after the shooting.
From what I’ve seen, his brother was one of the only people still in touch with him during his last days.
Especially when they’re a former “responsible gun owner”.
