It is clear that the jury considered all of the evidence, including testimony of expert witnesses, as well as the applicable law, in rendering its verdict. In recognizing the criminality of the defendant’s actions, we also recognize that this is a tragedy for all of the family members who are left to mourn this tremendous loss.

I expected the verdict would be guilty, but I think it is the wrong verdict, it was obvious to me he was seriously mentally ill at time of shooting, and he was legally insane IMO
the murders also could have been prevented if his family had got him help,
