Signs in this case seem to be vaguely pointing to paranoid schizophrenia rather then then autism.

There is a good blog post here on this subject.

Some notes from the post, not many paranoid schizophrenics, or schizophrenics commit mass-murder. Such persons also tend to be more likely to be victims of violence generally.

Quote:
In a May 1998 report published in the Archives of General Psychiatry, researchers examined data gathered in Pittsburgh and found that violence rates were indistinguishable between mental patients and their well neighbors.


Here's the link.
