Shootings at Oikos University

A public defender representing defendant One Goh said a psychiatrist has determined that Goh suffers from paranoid schizophrenia that dates back several years.

Alameda County Assistant Public Defender David Klaus has said the condition causes Goh to distrust people, including those trying to help him.

Klaus has said he and his co-counsel have had trouble talking with Goh because of his mental state.

Goh is charged with seven counts of murder and three counts of attempted murder in the April 2 attack at Oikos University in Oakland. He has pleaded not guilty.

• Oikos student: Locked door saved our lives
• Gun used in Oikos University shooting rampage was bought legally, police say

Authorities have said Goh, a former Oikos student, planned the killing spree at the school that caters to Korean immigrants after becoming angry with school officials over a tuition dispute. He previously decided to drop out of the school's nursing program.

A judge ordered Goh to return to court Jan. 28.

Lets see here,

There are witnesses that place this guy at the scene shooting 7 people dead, why in the world are we wasting time and money on this monster.

agreed.

Lock him up for the rest of his natural life, and move on to the next one.

I am for more drastic measures, 7 innocent lives lost. It is a waste of hard earned money supplied by the over taxed taxpayer.

Time to send a clear message to these monsters that this type of behavior will no longer be tolerated, we need to create real deterrents and a life devoid of responsibilities with food and recreation provided is not a deterrent to murder.
