Isla Vista Rampage Suspect's Struggles Didn't Prevent Gun Buying

Elliot Rodger, the suspect in the deadly attacks at Isla Vista near UC Santa Barbara, had been under the care of a therapist for some time and had been prescribed psychiatric drugs.

.

But experts said getting treatment would not prevent Rodger from legally obtaining the three guns he allegedly used in the rampage Friday night.

.

Dr. George Woods, a San Francisco psychiatrist who lectures on mental health and the law, said Rodger appeared to have been in an early phase of pre-psychosis. The ability to mask symptoms is common, he said.

.

"Oftentimes you'll see that the paranoia is in the service of the delusion," Woods said. "They aren't telling people their business."

.

But after Elliot Rodger turned 18, he started rejecting mental health care that his family provided, Krentzman said. "He turned his back on all of it," he said. "At some point, your kid becomes an adult."

.

Elliot Rodger became increasingly isolated, sometimes by his own design. He complained that he couldn't make friends, but acquaintances said in interviews that he rebuffed their attempts to be friendly.

.

Bitterness rising, Rodger began to resent the carefree students in the tight-knit Isla Vista community, where more than half of the 23,000 residents are students at nearby UC Santa Barbara. He viewed himself as a sophisticate and a catch, and reserved much of his venom for attractive women, whom he believed spurned him, and men who had more success in dating.

.

.

Asked if there was anything about that incident that would have prompted authorities to follow up with Rodger, spokeswoman Kelly Hoover replied: "No."

.

"We never, as a society, got that opportunity with this boy -- to find out if society could have intervened," said Carla Jacobs, an advocate for improving mental health care in California.

.

Around the same time, Rodger hatched his plan for what he called a "slaughter" and began buying semiautomatic handguns. He made the purchases legally, abiding by California's background check system and waiting periods. Despite his troubles, it does not appear that he triggered any warnings - he had no criminal history; he had never explicitly threatened anyone or been deemed a risk to himself or others; he had never been ordered to submit to involuntary mental health treatment; he had no history of addiction.
