Clackamas Town Center shooting: Gunman was Jacob Tyler Roberts
The Oregonian ^ | 12.12.12 | Helen Jun

Posted on 12/12/2012 10:49:42 AM PST by Uncle Miltie

Jacob Tyler Roberts, 22, was the masked man who stormed into Clackamas Town Center Tuesday afternoon, fatally shooting two people and wounding another before turning a gun on himself, police said.

Roberts does not appear to have a criminal history in Oregon, according to court records. He had two speeding tickets earlier this year.

Court records show that Roberts and a woman, Hannah Shoemake, were evicted last summer from their Happy Valley apartment.

Roberts' mother answered her door at her Portland home, but declined to comment to an Oregonian reporter. "I loved my son very much," she said.

Occupy Nut or Right Wing Supremist, it does not matter in the scheme of things when compared to about 40 million murders of unborn souls in more horrible ways than a sane man or woman can imagine. I say move on.

bleeeech....always important to keep your one and only point whether on topic or not.

Not being able to handle two thoughts at the same time is the sign of a very very simple mind

No. Not really. Whether it was an octagenarian in a land yacht with his foot stuck on the gas pedal thinking it was the brake, or a demented person who had access to a gun, the outcome isn’t much different.

The reason this is being promulgated is because of the anti-gun culture in the media. It pales in comparison to many, many tragedies that happen every day in this country. Your condescending one-track mind comments just fall right into that ooga-booga track the media intends for you to follow.

Theres a black man 57 who lives in Alabama named James Syler Robbins who belongs to the Tea Party is that close enough to tie rightwingers to the shooting?

and again your inability to hold two separate thoughts at the same time is the sign of a very very simple mind. You are locked into a singular vision that will indeed keep you from seeing the entire picture.... this is always dangerous

I am really curious if there is any connection between the 2 people killed and the shooter. And .. why would he stop shooting and kill himself if he hadn’t accomplished his goal? It could have been a “he liked her - she didn’t like him” type of thing; or the other guy moved in on her and she didn’t pay attention to the shooter anymore.

Jealousy .. unrequited love; lots of possibilities.

Sheriff (early on) commented there was no connection, but maybe there was something the police are just not aware of yet. The reason I’m curious is that he seemed to target a “couple” .. not totally random .. and he could have mistaken the girl who was wounded as being his real target.

Just thinkin’ out loud.

Seems so. Rare name, and she’s in OR. A bunch of mundane web hits, all lining up. Grab her Facebook pages before they disappear.

Injured...

A third shooting victim, Kristina Shevchenko, 15, was taken to a hospital and has undergone an initial surgery, according to a Facebook page set up by her family members. Family members said a bullet bruised her lung but avoided piercing any major organs.

I'm sure it matters to the families of the victims.

Go ahead and keep feeding that right wing, religious nutjob stereotype.

Would you two kindly take it to PM?
There’s a murder being discussed here. Yes, there are many others, but some people want to discuss this one on a thread dedicated to it.

Bingo. Alternate profile pic matches #12 above.
Capture the page before it disappears.
