He posted a lot of pictures with his friends around 2019, only 2 in 2021, and since then nothing. Possibly he had an injury/health issue around that time.

Radicalized, severe depression



A serious injury or illness can quickly radicalize someone when they realize no one actually cares nor can do anything about their pain. People become absolutely desperate to relieve themselves and turn to quacks online and lose all their money. Autism anti-vaxxers, chronic pain patients, long COVID, late stage cancer, Lyme disease, etc.


To be honest, he sounds paranoid schizophrenic. Having the gun and showing the same ID make sense. Schizophrenics don’t think like normal people


Agree. Sometimes a traumatic event can bring on schizophrenia or other types of severe mental illnesses. It could have been something medical for him like the spinal surgery or something else entirely: losing a job, losing a lot of money, terrible break up



Yep. He sounded so normal when he gave his Gilman school valedictorian speech!


Mental health breaks can happen at any time. It's like a cancer many do not see coming.

He'd be around the age for common onset.

Yeah no way this goes to trial unless he pleads insanity and even then very good chance of a plea.

Crime is on video, footage of him at Starbucks, and they found the gun and the fake idea he used to check into the NYC hostel PLUS a 3-page "manifesto" that will show motive, on him in Altoona.

He's cooked.


Probably, but that also means they don't need to offer him anything. Posters here may have fanciful ideas about jury nullification, but there's no way a jury doesn't convict on first degree murder here.


Yeah?

If I’m on that jury, I’ll hold out until it hangs. I don’t care what they say, I just won’t convict. Period.

Now, there’s plenty of people out there like me.


+1, guy will never be convicted.


Yes he would. The evidence is insurmountable at this point. It isn’t a jurors job to decide if the crime was ethically justified. Their job is to analyze if there is enough evidence beyond a reasonable doubt for the crime they are charged with

Surgery didn’t go great.

Moved to Japan.

His contact with family stopped about a year ago. Recently the family reached out to his friends from high school asking if they had info on him.

So he’s been pretty aloof for awhile. This checks out with his IG tagged photos as there were a lot of posts from family through 2023, none recently.

It’s impossible to “move to Japan”. You’d have to cycle out to South Korea every time before your tourist entry visa ended. They run a tight ship. Even study abroad visas last 12 mos and are very tedious to obtain if not with a long progrm

AP: It’s something Will Flanary, a Portland-based ophthalmologist and comedian with a large social media following, saw online a lot in the shooting’s immediate aftermath and found very telling.

“It’s zero sympathy,” he said. “And the lesson to take away from that is not, ‘Let’s shame people for celebrating a murder.’ No, it’s: ‘Look at the amount of anger that people have toward this system that’s taken advantage of people and do something to try to fix that.’”

Flanary’s content, published under the name Dr. Glaucomflecken, started out as niche eye doctor jokes and a way to cope with his own experiences with two cancer diagnoses and a sudden cardiac arrest. But it has evolved, featuring character skits that call attention to and satirize the decisions of large health insurers, including UnitedHealthcare.

He said he’s never seen conversations around health insurance policy take off the way they did this week — and he hopes these new voices can help bring about change.

“I’m always talking about how powerful social media can be with advocacy,” he said, “because it really is the only way to put a significant amount of pressure on these corporations who are doing bad things for patients.”

I saw dr. Flanary/Glaucomflenken in person some months ago. He brought up some particular video he'd done that embarrassed one of the big insurance companies--it might have been UHC but can't remember for sure, it was not one of the Blues. They reversed something they were doing, and he was big about people making noise. I'm a bit surprised the AP article doesn't quote him saying something about not using murder to get social media to pay attention.
