Elliot Rodger had been seeing "therapists" since the age of eight

The crazed killer who murdered six in a quiet California university town is believed to have used a machete and hammer to slaughter his first three victims in an apartment he planned to turn into a “personal torture and killing chamber”. One of the victims Cheng Yuan Hong, 20, an engineering student from Taiwan, was a room-mate Elliot Rodger had accused of stealing three candles worth $22 from him in January. At the time Rodger, 22, attempted a citizen’s arrest over the alleged theft and called police but Mr Hong was released. Friends of Mr Hong said he was planning to move out at the end of the semester because Rodger was “strange”. Two machetes, a hammer and a knife, were among the items removed from the ground floor corner apartment they shared behind a row of palm trees at the Capri complex in Isla Vista. In a 141-page manifesto Rodger had described how he intended to use the hammer to knock out his room-mates and then slit their throats a day before launching his gun massacre. The neighbour said: “He was so emotional with like water faucets coming out down in his cheeks for half an hour. I’ve never seen anybody that mad. He said ’I’m gong to kill all of them I’m going to kill myself’. I don’t know if that’s what set the plan in motion.” He described once taking Rodger to a party but he was “like a ghost” and ’just stared at people”. Simon Astaire, a family friend, said their son had been seeing therapists since the age of eight, including virtually “every day” while at high school. to read more: telegraph.co.ukSign up for our free e-mail list to see future vaticancatholic.com videos and articles.
