Robert Young, whose nephew Aaron and 44-year-old brother Bill perished in the shooting event in Maine, expressed comfort upon learning of Card’s passing.
As a family, it provides a feeling of closure because we can stop worrying about him hurting anyone else. Additionally, it instills a feeling of fairness in us. He’s no longer here, Young remarked.
According to accounts, Card, the shooter, had mental health problems. Card reportedly suffered from mental health problems, including voices in his head and threats to blow up the Saco National Guard Base.
