UNITED STATES | About the author of the slaughter of Connecticut Neurobiology of mass murder


With so unpredictable intervals as predictable constancy, the horror returns as school massacre . This time it was in Connecticut. But what does it matter where you been? This is the umpteenth time I receive an urgent call from a newspaper: Please write something immediately that there has been a massacre at a school! And always the same, the same horrors, the same questions: Why do these things happen?, Was he crazy? Obviously we always missing data to know, but it is also true that there are common denominators that allow us to analyze the casewithout making too many mistakes. On one side are the statistics that strongly agree: the mentally ill do not commit more violence than non-sufferers. But then there is the social label of "person-strange-impulsive-violent, dangerous" who commits an atrocity unexpected. Certainly we must admit that it is strange that a 20 year old who does these things does not suffer any mental imbalance .Something must happen in your mind. In fact, some voices suggest that the murderer of Connecticut might have a disorder. This anomalous behavior is so clearly that it can not be that all is well in your brain . But, what's the problem? Psychiatrists say they are shorted behaviors that occur in an apparently inexplicable. Now, in order to produce needed incubation, precedents, and often subsequent investigations had shown that abnormal personality traits, behavioral disorders, bizarre behavior, impulsive or aggressive, which were undervalued or neglected by families, or health teachers who knew them.That neglect is common to many mental illnesses. It's sort of 'not-wanting-to-see' perhaps for fear of 'not-knowing-what-do' . In fact, most homicidal and suicidal notified, no longer subtle signs, warnings have gone unheeded. Then one day something happens that breaks the unstable equilibrium, and the next step is to act, impulsivity uncontrollable raging violence. The triggers can be small frustrations , sometimes simple and downs of life, including news 'hot' that lead them to ruminate on their minds how to act.

Brain disorders

Another common feature is suicidal and homicidal suffering violent alterations of certain brain circuits and neurotransmitters that carry the onset of depression, anxiety and impulsivity. The best known is serotonin, a substance that acts as a neuromodulator of emotions and impulses . When descends step favors pathologically impulsive act, both as self-aggressiveness as hetero. It is as if that would prevent them from maintaining self-control and carry them to act without the normal brakes we all have, that allow us to lead with moderation, reason and balance. Obviously, a simple neurochemical alteration can not explain the complexity of human behavior , but we know that that is the common denominator in the brains of aggressive and suicidal people. I do not know if this young Connecticut suffered an illness, but it is very likely that if you analyze his brain neurochemistry are some alteration. We also know that if we give these people drugs that increase serotonin decreases the risk of violent or suicidal impulsivity . This is not to say that there was a clinical negligence in this case, do not know enough, but there are many cases of violence or suicide in which if it had intervened in time perhaps could have been avoided. At least, in all these cases should open a file neuropsychiatric expert in depth , which would allow us to prevent the next one. Otherwise, and unfortunately, it will not take long time to get another urgent call to opine in a similar case. And for the record I would love to be wrong.

Hours of pain in Connecticut: waking and identification of bodies


Authorities gave few clues about why it might be the author of the massacre in Newtown, a wooded and picturesque town northeast of the city of New York. All deceased were identified, reported Paul Vance, spokesman for the Connecticut State Police: "The investigation was performed overnight. Our goal was to identify all the victims to relieve families. Our officers worked through the night and could do it , "he told CBS. Hours after the killings, hundreds of people gathered for a vigil at the Church of Newtown, whose capacity was completely filled, and many had to be left out. "This community is really coming together when things like this happen," said Pastor Robert Weiss during mass. During the church service also read a letter from Pope Benedict XVI. "I asked our father God to comfort those who mourn the loss of a loved one and to hold the entire community with the spiritual force that is imposed to violence through forgiveness, hope and reconciling love, " wrote Pope. David Connors, whose triplets were in school during the shooting but were unhurt, said he was still shocked. "It's tough. I never imagined that something like this could happen here," he said. "Our faith has been tested," he said on his part the state governor, Dan Malloy, the crowd gathered. "Not necessarily our faith in God, but our faith in the community and who we are, what we represent collectively. " The President Barack Obama said as he wiped the tears and struggled to maintain his composure he was appalled by the tragedy. Vance explained that only one of the injured had survived and said the gunman had been unusually precise and methodical when firing. Most of the killings, which began at 9:30 local, "occurred in one wing of the school, in two rooms," said Vance. The murderer was Adam Lanza , 20, whom police mistook before with his brother Ryan Lance , 24, because he had his identity card at the time of the killing. Also in a Newtown housing was found dead Lanza's mother - the twenty-eighth victim if you count 26 of the school and the shooter himself, who was a teacher at Sandy Hookand Adam have completed before going to school.

Nelson Mandela was successfully operated


"The former president underwent an endoscopic procedure to remove her about gallstones (...) the procedure was successful and Madiba is recovering, "said the government statement, using Mandela's clan name. The first black president of South Africa,  which came to power in a historic election in 1994 after decades of struggle against apartheid, remains a symbol of resistance against racism and injustice at home and around the world. Mandela was admitted to a Pretoria hospital last week after being airlifted from his hometown in Qunu, a rural and remote area of ​​the Eastern Cape Province. Tests showed he had recurrent pulmonary infection and had developed  gallstones, the government statement said.  When he was admitted on December 8, l as authorities emphasized that there was no need to worry , although local media reports suggested that senior  government officials and people around them were caught off-guard by the news. Mandela spent 27 years in apartheid prisons , including 18 in a cell on Robben Island off the coast of Cape Town. He was released in 1990 and used his unparalleled prestige to promote reconciliation  between blacks and whites in support of the "rainbow nation" post-apartheid.  resigned in 1999 after a term as president and the last decade has been largely  removed from public life. Mandela was admitted to a Johannesburg hospital in 2011 with trouble  breathing, and again in February this year by abdominal pain. He was discharged one day  later after a comprehensive examination showed that there was nothing serious. Since then he has spent much time in Qunu . Their frail health prevents him from making public appearances in South Africa, but has continued  to receive both local and international high level, such as former President Bill  Clinton in July.
