I completely understand what you're saying and I am in no way trying to make light of his actions-but, and this is a very big but, what if there was mental illness involved? It doesn't pardon him, it will never make up for the losses, the tragedy and the lives he took, and it doesn't excuse him, but someone who doesn't have complete control of their mental faculties is slightly different from bad grades from a breakup.
Again, it may not be mental illness at all, but I suppose nobody will know for quite sometime. This whole situation has me on the brink of tears and my heart broken. Nothing will ever excuse this, but the reason why may at least fill a void and provide an answer.
