Most students, if learning a professor had murdered someone, would describe that professor as "off."
I think of the response Chris Jefferies was subject to, and he was not even guilty.
Look, most people have the very opposite reaction to what you are describing. [....] In fact, that's exactly what some of Gutting's colleagues and acquaintances have said.

It's already been established that he's introverted and was not particularly outgoing or gregarious. You're probably extrapolating from your particular experience of witnessing students being presumptuous. That's probably not the case if you examine the facts of the case.
Interesting article. I went looking for new info on this case yesterday but found nothing so thanks gaia for bringing this recent article here.
With no other new info being made available and in light of the financial difficulties revealed in this article, I am thinking today that the case may involve an insurance scam on the part of Gutting and his wife but, maybe she was the only one aware of it. Is that possible?
Hm. I'm guessing conflict involving permanent hiring to tenured position. Anyone?
Any new information on this case?
.....
The next incident was a year and half later, when police say they found Gutting and wife in a car outside a University of Mississippi building huffing nitrous oxide.
@JerseyGirl sbm Thx for update.The first-degree murder trial a former Missouri State University will move forward....Gutting’s attorneys say he’s still being held at a state mental facility....
