If he wanted an element of surprise in the auditorium, I don’t know why he would have started shooting outside in the hallway before entering the auditorium. Even if the TA had not been in the midst of his closing remarks, students inside the auditorium could have been expected to move around...

Does anyone know if he exited the auditorium via the upper door or the lower door? There were 15 shell casings in the hallway and 29 shell casings found in the auditorium (classroom). Witnesses said he descended the auditorium stairs as he was shooting. Is it possible he diverted to the...

The Pierside is a four star hotel and checkout time is 11:00am. If he checked in around 4:00am for just one night, that would mean until that same morning at or before 11:00am. I believe I read he did not formally check out but I’d imagine housekeeping would feel free to enter after the expected...

Their camera said 12:16 and 12:17 but I don’t know if the camera time is accurate. At that point, he was walking in a direction that was moving further away from the Reiner’s house though that doesn’t mean he might not have looped back later.

FWIW, IMO, he easily could have walked from the Reiner’s home to the Pierside. It’s a longish but very easy walk. If he took public transportation, he most likely would’ve taken a bus down Wilshire or Santa Monica if buses were running at that time. Unlikely he would have walked to the USC...

Seems reasonable to me that he might have wanted to maintain his anonymity.

He studied physics in that building at Brown and withdrew from the program for some reason. He began shooting in the hallway, according to the TA who said he heard shooting and people screaming *before* the shooter entered the classroom where he was wrapping up his study session. IMO, he might...

Looks like 26th and San Vicente, less than half a mile from the home.

<modsnip: Quoted post was removed> According to the TA, the session was scheduled to end at 4:00pm and he ended the session a bit after 4:00pm. He said he and those inside the class heard gunshots and screaming in the hallway as he was wrapping up the session and before the gunman opened a door...

I would guess LM was referring to the CEO/victim as a mass murderer. If that’s what LM said, it could speak to his mindset about the victim.

Possibly a large extended family.

Regarding his choice to skip Kate’s Cup of Joe in Clarkston, from what I can tell online, it’s strictly drive-thru. If a local knows different, please correct me. But if it’s a drive-thru, I would imagine he might not have wanted to get that close to a human being or potentially a camera while...

Does this look like the same shirt he was wearing in the thumbs up selfie? I can’t tell for sure but I think so? Aside from that day, and aside from when wearing shirt and tie, are there images of him wearing his shirts buttoned all the way up like that without a tie? Wondering if that was just...

I think the PCA wording that described DM hearing sounds of Kaylee and Murphy playing upstairs was a misinterpretation of DM’s statements that she heard them in the “main room” which I take the mean the living room. A portion of the living room shared a wall with DM’s room. In the body cam...

It’s my understanding that the shirt features an American flag, an eagle, and text that says “Land of the Free” above the image and “Home of the Brave” below the image. Also my understanding the shirt may be associated with a disabled veterans foundation as indicated by some online listings for...
