Oh my dear... *sigh*


 
This is very rare when they caught a serial shooter ALIVE as most ppl who shot random ppl usually kill themselves making it more difficult to understand WHY they did it.

So with this shooter they caught, perhas would be a good chance to discover why and such and he shall deserve the punishment for taking away the innocents lives at the nursing home.
