Quote:The gunman who opened fire on a "Madden NFL 19" tournament in Jacksonville, Florida, on Sunday was hospitalized previously for mental illness, according to court records obtained by The Associated Press.
Divorce filings from the parents of 24-year-old David Katz of Baltimore showed that as a teenager he was hospitalized twice in psychiatric facilities and was prescribed anti-psychotic and anti-depressant medications, the AP reported Monday.
Quote:Katz legally purchased his firearms — .45 caliber and 9mm handguns — in Baltimore, Maryland, Jacksonville Sheriff Mike Williams told reporters. He bought them within the past month from a licensed dealer, officials said.
Once again a missed opportunity to possibly prevent a mass shooting.
I'd love to see the paper trail on that one. I'm guessing it was missed because he was a juvenile?
Shouldn't matter because unless his psychotic behavior was the result of medication it's incurable. You can treat it but it is never cured.
I don't disagree, just didn't know the law and what is included in these background check.
