I zoomed in on his face, looks very broke out...but not really typical acne, maybe meth use or bath salts as the previous poster pointed out was referenced on his fb page??

Idk, he might have just been trying to get attention. Teens type alot of nonsense. He was also still into Pokemon. He's 16? Plus he got decent grades, so not sure what to think about his bath salts reference. His acne does look typical to me...but not when compared to the manicured lawn, kept up home and Ozzie & Harriet reference. Acne bothers kids. Did he see a dermatologist? If so, did he take medicine for his acne? I know a young woman that's now age 19 that suffered from acne. She went on medicine her senior year to get rid of her acne and only took it for a few weeks bc she became very depressed and suicide was a side effect of the medicine she took for her face.

No idea. I see his cover photo of Kurt Cobain, which he uploaded on October 12, 2012. I see his poll questions and answers. I see 1996 as a reference section right after the Born section but its empty, as if stuff was deleted or hidden from public view. I see that he started his FB page March 12, 2011. His profile wall looks pretty much on lockdown, as if its been wiped or hidden.

I don't think the stabber is all that thin. He was standing beside obese officers in the pics, and he looks to be built like many sixteen year olds I see around my area.

Hribal was quiet and not widely known. He said most victims did not appear to be linked with him and were simply close by when the attack began.

... he "always kept to himself." "He didn't talk to many people." "He wasn't mean or anything, he just wasn't outgoing."

... some students thought Hribal had been anxious or upset recently, and that he had shouted at a girl who had asked to see his homework Wednesday morning.

... students on social media were getting threatened last night that they would be beaten or killed.

The attacker "had the same expression on his face that he has every day, which was the freakiest part", he said. "He wasn't saying anything. He didn't have any anger on his face. It was just a blank expression."

Re my bolded... Those are the things that stand out the most. Wonder if the girl that wanted to see his homework did that on a daily basis. Is it possible that maybe he felt pressured to get good grades and worked hard at it so when somebody asked to cheat off of him he was tired of sharing the answers he worked hard for? Was he ever pressured to share his homework? Was he ever pressured or bullied to help somebody cheat? And the blank expression, just wow. Why was he threatening to kill people? How many times do we hear these stories? So scary!

Hribal's attorney described him as a "nice young man," who has never been in trouble.
"He's not a loner. He works well with other kids," he said. "...He's scared. He's a young kid. He's 16, looks like he's 12. I mean, he's a very young kid and he's never been in trouble so this is all new to him."

This statement is weird to me. I mean, doesn't the attorney think it might be new to the stabbed students as well? I mean, chances are those students aren't used to being stabbed...so why that choice of words? Sometimes I just wish attorneys would think before they speak during a time of high tension. I can only imagine how his statement made the victims and their families feel. I know he's there for his client, but still... Just sayin'.

I know I'm going to sound like an old 'fuddy duddy' & that is exactly what I am & I know it.

Far too many kids today are not disciplined at all. Way too many parents think their kid's temper tantrums are cute which only causes the children to think that they can get away with any behavior. Schools are no longer allowed to discipline children. All this is the result of 'experts' deciding quite a few years ago that a child's self esteem was more important than anything else & that they should never be held accountable for their actions. Children must be taught that there are consequences for their behavior, good or bad.

Then we have the drug problem. How many of these poor kids are born with a 'fried' brain because of their parent's drug use?

We, as a society, have failed our children & now we & they are paying the price.

No, I do NOT advocate beating your child, but there are appropriate ways to discipline them.

I'll climb down off my soapbox now. All the above is JMO

You're not a fuddy duddy, just a darn good sleuther! :loveyou:

Is he older than stated? 17 going on 18?

BBM.

I must have missed all this. Can you point me to these "experts"? Maybe there's a copy of the minutes of the meeting where they got together and decided all this? A research paper maybe? Even just an article in a journal somewhere, that expresses any of this stuff?

It's nice to have an opinion, and follow what you say with "JMO", but when you state something as fact (ie, "years ago experts said/did X,Y,Z"), you should really have something to back that up. Opinions should ideally be based on stuff that actually has happened, not vague feelings or theories that we have. A problem is never solved, or even confronted properly, if we make up our minds on the cause/solution based on a pet theory that might not have any basis in fact whatsoever.

I read that he's 16.

His own lawyer says he's heard nothing about bullying...

http://www.cnn.com/2014/04/09/justice/alex-hribal-profile/?hpt=hp_t1

"I'm not gonna comment on what my client had to say, but I don't know anything about any bullying," Thomassey told reporters.

Adding to the mystery, Thomassey said his client "was not a troubled young man to this point."

"They (his parents) offer their condolences to everybody involved in this case. They're very upset. They did not foresee this coming at all," the attorney said. "This is a nice young man. He's never been in trouble."

Why did he snap? What happened?

Why did he snap? What happened?

a classmate says ... he was small for his age — "like a little boy,"— and that he was teased. "I'd witnessed people say things to him," she said. "I couldn't tell you who said. I didn't realize it was all that bad."

She didn't know what the teasing was about, but she described it as relentless at times. "They just said things. They'd ride him and ride him, and today was the day that he snapped," she said.

"This is not a dysfunctional family," Hribal's lawyer, Patrick Thomassey, told CNN Thursday. "They're like the Brady Bunch. These parents are active with their two sons, and we're trying to figure out what happened."

Murrysville Police Chief Tom Seefeld said investigators haven't yet made sense of the mass stabbing, either.

"We believe, through the investigation, that this was random," he told CNN's "New Day." "We don't have anybody that was targeted, as far as we know at this point."

The FBI has seized electronics belonging to Hribal, including a computer and cell phone, and will analyze them for any clues, the police chief said.
