Remember my policy of not identifying criminals who seem to be seeking publicity? Now a nationally known schizophrenia expert says the Colorado theater massacrist “still” believes killing people will increase his self-worth. The doctor is expected to say she found the killer was legally insane during the July 20, 2012, attack in which he killed 12 people and wounded 70 during a crowded movie premiere.
Killing innocent people may increase one’s value as a target, but it reduces one’s “worth” significantly.
