On February 14, 2008, Northern Illinois University became the site of a devastating mass shooting when a former student walked into a packed lecture hall and opened fire. Within minutes, six people were dead, including the gunman, and nearly two dozen others were injured. Who was the shooter, and what led him to carry out such a brutal attack? What warning signs were missed? In this episode of Murder U, we examine the tragic events of that day, the gunman’s troubled past, and the long-lasting impact on the victims, their families, and the NIU campus.
