Dave FBarry....I sort of disagree. Obviously with a man and woman found dead in the dorm's it looked totally like a domestic dispute..maybe a jealous boyfriend...girl caught cheating type of deal.
It looked like a isolated event. I don't think knowing what they knew at the time they could have shut the school down for that. Had that been the only murders and the school shut down people would be saying "why did they shut down the school over a guy getting revenge on his girlfriend?"
Shutting the school down or annoucing that there is a killer on the loose would have made for one mad dash away from the place..probably injuring more people at the time. I think many times the job of law enforcement official is if possible to coral a situation without causing a mass uproar of the population..which is what they were trying to do here. Hindsight of course is 20/20..but I find it hard to blame anyone for anything other than the jackass that did the shooting.
