This is the most logical theory I have heard and Vance said early on that they had uncovered things in the home that may help them with a motive. So this motive I believe is the one they have been working on for sometime now. Way before it came to light in the media yesterday.
It may have been as simple as finding conservatorship paperwork in Nancy's room or the name of a psychologist and an appointment date. That would be enough to start the investigation and it would lead where it has led imo.
I have not had experiences with those who are mentally ill but I know those who have and they tell me if a family member tries to intervene to get them mandatory help it is a time the person can seeth with rage and sometimes the affected person is so angry they will not speak to them ever again or it is a very long time before they do.
I did have a father who suffered from dementia and I had to obtain Guardianship over him. In our state it took two psychiatrists that were certified by the court plus his personal medical doctor's opinion.
I believe Adam knew his mother's intentions. She most likely tried to sit him down and explain to him it was for his own best interest and it was because she loved him so much. But instead of Adam agreeing he seethed with hatred and rage inside. Imo, he saw it as a betrayal and in his mind he may have thought she was only trying to rid herself of him. I wouldnt be shocked to learn he suffered from paranoia.
She even told a friend just a week before that she was losing him. Even she could no longer get Adam to communicate with her. The very one that had always been able to get Adam out of his shell. I think she told him of her plans and that is when he shutdown instantly and would no longer speak to her.
Imo, so whatever his issues are really had nothing to do with why all these innocent people died. I dont think he was criminally insane by a long shot. This was done because he was filled with hatred and rage that his own mother was going to force him to get treatment. Like a lot of those who need treatment I think Adam thought like a lot of others and he didnt want or need treatment.
When Vance comes out later on I do believe there will be a link to the school he chose. He passed other schools on his 5 mile trip from home. It may have been that he knew he could make his infamous mark in history more memorable if he murdered the youngest and most vulnerable or it may be something else entirely that led him there that tragic day.
Jmo though
