ANOTHER SCHOOL/PUBLIC SHOOTING

[HairOfTheDog]

Of course they're all mental. Mental people commit suicide. Mental people go out and shoot multiple people. Sane people don't do these kind of things.

This one knew he was exactly as you describe, FAHQTOO. I suspect that his mother did, too.


Darion Aguilar, 19 - murderer

Police have Aguilar's journal where he wrote about realizing that he was not right in the head and needed help.

Still, he legally purchased a shotgun a month beforehand and seemed like the most normal of customers to the gun shop owners, who don't bother even processing the shady types. There is no way the gun shop owners could have known this guy was a ticking time bomb.

It doesn't appear, at the this point, that Aguilar had a relationship with either victim, but he is said to have been a skateboarder who sometimes hung out around the mall and is believed to have shopped at the Zumiez Skateboard Gear Shop in the past.

On the day of the murders, his mom reported Aguilar missing 5 hours after he failed to show up at work at Dunkin' Donuts. Police found his journal and were concerned enough to be actively looking for him.

When the call came from the mall, they put two and two together pretty quickly. Aguilar had been wandering around the mall for hours with the broken down shotgun in his backpack. Finally, he went into the Zumiez dressing room, reassembled it, and then shot and killed the two store employees.

Aside from Johnson and Benlolo, another mall patron was shot (in the foot) and wounded before Aguilar blew his brains out.
