Prescription meds

Any evidence on our latest mass shooters taking prescription meds? I'm sure I missed it while listening about their Twitter, their military backgrounds, relationships, affiliations, opinions, etc. maybe the media ran out of time before they were able to investigate such a petty possible attribute of the investigation.

Interesting possibility. Not sure how they'd legally find that out, given the patient privacy laws.

Makes you wonder, though.

I kind think it came out for sandy hook and aurora. That info has seemed to dry up though.

I hadn't recalled that. Of course, those laws don't apply to family members, so who knows.

I would think privacy laws expire when the perp expires.

There are law enforcement exceptions to HIPAA whether the individual is dead or not.
