The delicate tissue sheaths that insulate each biological circuit lay in “disorganized clumps,” & throughout #RobertCard’s #brain there was scarring & inflammation suggesting repeated #trauma.

This was not #CTE, the report said. It was a characteristic pattern of damage that has been found before in #military #veterans who were repeatedly exposed to #weapons #blasts during their service.

Acc/to the lab’s report, prepared on Feb 26 & updated on Wednesday, the white matter that forms the wiring deep in the #brain had “moderately severe” damage, & in some areas was missing entirely.

The #gunman, #RobertCard, was a #grenade instructor in the #ArmyReserve. In 2023, after 8 yrs of being exposed to thousands of skull-shaking blasts on the training range, he began hearing #voices & was stalked by #paranoid #delusions. He grew increasingly erratic & #violent in the months before the Oct rampage in #Lewiston, in which he killed 18 people & then himself.

A specialized laboratory examining the #brain of the gunman who committed #Maine’s deadliest #MassShooting found profound #BrainDamage of the kind that has been seen in #veterans exposed to repeated blasts from #weapons use.

The lab’s findings were included in an autopsy report that was compiled by the Maine chief ME’s office & released by the #gunman’s family.

"In addition to his own relatives, law enforcement officials & govt agencies also expressed anxiety about #RobertCard and the possible risk he posed to others, long before police say Card gunned people down in a bowling alley and a bar Wednesday in #Lewiston.

...In September, the local sheriff’s office received a letter saying that a soldier who served with Card in the Army Reserve believed that Card might “snap and commit a #MassShooting ”"

Police were told Maine gunman might 'snap and commit a mass shooting' 6 weeks before massacre

Law enforcement officials in Maine had previously been made aware that the perpetrator of the recent mass shooting in Lewiston, Maine last week that killed 18 and wounded 13 was on the verge of a violent outburst, according to a new report.

CNN reported Monday that in September, the national guard sent a letter to the Sagadahoc County Sheriff's Office warning that 40-year-old Army reservist Robert Card could potentially "snap and commit a mass shooting," according to an unnamed fellow guardsman concerned about Card. County sheriffs tried unsuccessfully to conduct a welfare check at Card's home on September 16, though Card apparently refused to answer the door or talk to the responding officer.

As I read about the man "missed red flags" AP finds in the case of Maine mass shooter Robert Card — multiple reports of concerning incidents over a considerable period of time with, as CNN is reporting "lack of follow-through," I wonder if, had Card been a Black man, say, or a man with immigrant background and not a white GOP-supporting man who was a Sergeant First Class in the Army Reserves, so many warning signs would have been missed.

It was hilarious when I saw someone on the #Fediverse point to the #RobertCard situation in #Maine as a reason why we need universal healthcare.

As if giving people the same level of care that discharged #RobertCard would do anything to help prevent shootings like this from happening 🤦🏾‍♂️
