Here’s video from Salt Lake City’s KSL TV, showing an interview with the father of Sulejman Talovic, in which he voices his suspicion that his son was influenced and trained to commit the murders. (Hat tip: Gateway Pundit.)

UPDATE at 2/17/07 11:49:25 am:

LGF reader Killgore Trout points out another interesting piece of information buried at the very end of this article: Trolley Square Shooter’s Family Speaks to the Media.

KSL Newsradio learned today that when Suljemen was a student at Horizonte school he was discovered looking at prohibited websites that contained information about AK-47s. That’s when his parents pulled him out of school.

Debbie Schlussel reports that the police did not seize Talovic’s computer, but it’s questionable whether he even had a computer.

This article suggests that he didn’t: Authorities search for motive in mall shooter’s rampage.

He left nothing behind — no notes, no journals, no computer — that might explain his motives, Burbank told The Associated Press.

UPDATE at 2/17/07 1:02:17 pm:

The latest word from police: Police, DA give further details in Trolley shooting.

For instance, detectives as of Friday had found no evidence that violent video games may have influenced Talovic. In fact, Talovic did not even own a computer or a video-game system, Burbank said.

Investigators also had not “found anything that has religious or political motivation” or shown that Talovic’s ethnicity was a factor, the chief said.
