5. The shooter's cousin said he's had issues for the last year

Including burning animals alive. Although various news stories have said that the boy's biological mother died when he was six or so, and that there had been custody issues before then, the boy apparently believed that his biological mother was the father's current wife. They recently told him that that wasn't the case.
