Interesting enough, the description of him sounds suspicious. Brilliant mind, excellent grades in college, a loner, disconnected from society, not able to find a job despite his intellectual achievements, fascinated by comic book superheros, utter lack of empathy...
I don't know if he had a brilliant mind, according to this
report. he was a "mediocre student".
And was he really a loner? Some neighbour said he had women and men coming and visiting him which must not mean anything but looks like he did know how to make or keep contacts.
I think this
article here makes intresting observations like " The fact he’s not just able to present his work on stage (and laugh appropriately at the Slurpee joke) but also make eye contact with the audience shows he’s at least fairly oriented in the social world at this point. " about the summer camp video.
Also...utter lack of empathy? That's aspergers?
And there's actually a youtube video someone made questioning whether this guy had AS.
I don't think and I don't know if that's the case. There are still no statements, letters, evidences...etc. that would point to the cause of all this.
