Too bad Sodini scrambled his brains; science doesn't get to study samples from mass murderers very often. He knew he was mentally ill and even researched it yet never sought out help.

The aledged kid should have DNA testing, just incase he needs to polish up the social skills. I too doubt there is any chance he fathered a child but technically there are a handfull of chances it could have happened.

Sodini was SERIOUSLY bent out of shape yet kept right on functioning in society. Who knows how many other George Sodini's there are out there? Kind of scary if you consider it.

When I read that a few days ago, the question that came to my mind was "How did she die?"

Yes, that's what is so scary, he seemed so normal! Seems a little similar to Ted Bundy.

Seemed so normal??? WTH... I don't think he seemed normal at all... Making a Tape of his House, saying how the young ladies would be impressed because he had a organized house, Not being with a Woman for 19 years... Come on, the Man had issues and refussed to get help...
I think he was after perfection, a perfect woman and would not accept less...
He was and is a Coward!!! Who ruined so many lives...

The video he made of his house was for some workshop he attended on on how to talk to women. The very first youtube comment on his video was from one of the women that was part of the seminar, she critiqued his home. He was really talking to them when he said things like "reading material you are all familiar with" because the book on his coffee table was the book from the seminar. Here's a link to the seminar with Sodini in attendance, he is in the white shirt.
YouTube - THE RIGHT ATTITUDE WORKSHOP

The workshop itself is pretty damn creepy. Some awkward middle-aged men being trained to talk to women, with a bunch of 20 year-old models acting as the women. These men probably left with false hope that they could hook up with young women like this in the real world.

I hadn't read his blog. I was just going by his appearance and the fact that he had no prior criminal record, had graduated from Pitt and had a decent job. If I had read these, I would have said he was one tormented soul.

Normal right up to the Hand Granade incident on the Bus. This latest factoid should have been enough to Raise the White Flag for sure. The Port Authority Police should have escalated this one as a serious threat. Sodini was coming unglued very rapidly and THIS plucked him from the normal waters.

Yeah, I think that is the same seminar that is always advertised in the newspaper for $1,500 a person to attend. You have to be crazy to pay that amount to learn how to be a "playa", let alone play with a live grenade.

The police questioned him--there was no evidence of any wrongdoing, and the guy who phoned in the complaint couldn't ID Soldini as the guy he saw with the grenade. At that point there wasn't much they could do.
