MELBOURNE – James Holmes, accused of opening fire in a crowded movie theater in Aurora, Colorado, last summer, had no criminal history, but was seeing a psychiatrist prior to the incident. Adam Lanza, suspected of murdering his mother and gunning down 20 children and six adult staff members at a Connecticut elementary school before taking his own life, had never been in legal trouble, but had been diagnosed with a “personality disorder,” as well as the developmental disorder Asperger syndrome.
墨尔本—被控去年夏天在科罗拉多州奥罗拉（Aurora）满座剧院纵火的詹姆斯·霍尔姆斯（James Holmes）没有犯罪记录，但在事件发生前就诊过精神科。被疑谋杀母亲并枪杀康涅狄格州某小学20名儿童和6名成人教职员工随后自尽的亚当·兰扎（Adam Lanza）从未陷入过法律纠纷，但被诊断为“人格失常”，即亚斯伯格（Asperger）发育失常症候。挪威的安德斯·贝林·布雷维克（Anders Behring Breivik）、亚利桑那州的杰瑞德·李·拉夫纳（Jared Lee Loughner）、弗吉尼亚州的赵承熙（Seung-Hui Cho），这些大规模杀人案主犯都有精神病。
