We hear about school shootings all too often these days. These tragedies are typically perpetrated by a mentally unstable juvenile lashing out at his or her schoolmates to express frustration or rage. But what about when the shooter is a teacher? And not just a teacher – an esteemed Harvard-educated college professor? The February 2010 shootings by Professor Amy Bishop of 6 of her University of Alabama colleagues at a biology staff meeting was shocking enough. But when police began to look into Professor Bishop's past, two other incidents came to light that could have been seen as significant warning signs that something was not right. The professor had other victims – and one was her own brother.
