Is it possible that such a well educated man simply acted on a revenge impulse? Was there such a burning desire to kill a bunch of people, only to realize later the full extent of his crimes? Perhaps he thought that it was worth it, even if he would be eating prison food for the rest of his life. Did such a well educated man finally realize that despite covering most of his face, there are other biometric algorithms to eventually ID and locate him. So, was it a suicide mission and he initially chickened out? Or, did he eventually realize that he didn't want to spend the rest of his life eating prison food and occasionally being held-down by LARGE, aggressive men?
