Killing spree

Case 1Case 2
"He has reportedly told police that he took 10 times his prescribed dose of tranquillisers yesterday in an attempt to kill himself. He said he had attempted suicide many times and wanted to be executed."

Takuma was unrepentant, telling the court: "If I had attacked a kindergarten I could have killed more than 30. Since I will get the death penalty either way it's a shame I only got eight."
What do you say to someone like that? Is it enough that he is diagnosed with a mental instability. What and who made him become this way?

It is sad what emptiness and loneliness drives people to do, how does someone wake up one day and say "I'm going to drive into town today and stab a couple of people."
