But that home is not in Cali. You seem to make light of the mentality ill. Sometimes therapy doesn't work. But I guess you don't care.
No one knows if it would have made a difference because treatment was never pursued.
Aspergers and Obsesive - Compulsive disorder were known issues. Schizophrenia and/ or bipolar are illnesses tend to emerge during adolescence. He was restricting food- anorexia. Isolating in a basement, surrounded by weapons while obsessed with violent video games is not healthy behavior.

I wonder if those guns were left there for a purpose .
He lived not for from the school, no mansions there
Ps, I take that back , just saw the photo of his house, it is big, although I don't think most Connecticut residents would consider that a mansion, it's a normal size house in a lot of Ct towns
Mom was awarded nearly $300,000 in annual alimony payments, house and ultimate authority as it related to Adam, once the divorce was finalized.
Read the report. The schools - liberal schools - refused to address the problem. In the 60's kids like him were either tracked out or moved to Special Ed. That's liberalism for you: everyone is equal.

I don't agree. The schools did not refuse to address the problem. It appears the mother did not want to comply with the school's attempts to address the issue, after a certain point.
While I believe that schools do need to be responsible in the way they serve children with disabilities, I believe the parents are equally if not more responsible, as it is their child.
There is plenty of blame to go around in this tragedy. Many points where mistakes were made. Easy to see in hindsight, but the truth is, there are thousands of kids out there like Adam who will never go on to go on a shooting spree. As the report indicates, none of the problems Adam was having over the years could be used to predict he would go on to do what he did.
The one area that was grossly overlooked was the violent story he wrote in elementary school. THAT should have been a major wake-up call to all of the adults in his life. Sadly, his intense obsession with violence flew under everyone's radar.

"Son, do the right thing."
I think he worked for General Electric, one of Obama's sugar daddies.
