During the 1990s, a series of school rampage shootings shocked the nation and incited fear about the level of violence present in American schools. School shootings are extremely rare, making it impossible to develop a definitive profile that can be used to identify which students are at risk of becoming a rampage shooter. By examining previous shootings, however, it is possible to gain a general idea of actions and behaviors to look for when trying to recognize a potential shooter.
This book contains detailed case summaries on some of the high profile shootings that have taken place and examines the shooters in detail. Shooters profiled include Barry Loukaitis, Evan Ramsey, Luke Woodham, Michael Carneal, Andrew Golden, Mitchell Johnson, Kip Kinkel, Eric Harris, Dylan Klebold, Charles Andrew Williams, Jeffrey Weise, Seung Hui Cho, and TJ Lane.
