The cops at the Texas shooting have discounted the actions and story of this individual. I am sorry but the line about mental health not being an issue with the shooter was an immediate RED FLAG when this guy initially spoke. If you shoot countless, random people you most DEFINITELTY HAVE A MENTAL HEALTH ISSUE. As far as I am concerned EVERY mass shooting shooter has mental health issues.
"Allen Police Department wants to inform the public of discrepancies with statements made by a witness to several media outlets. Following the shooting at Allen Premium Outlets, Mr. Steven Spainhouer of McKinney, Texas gave multiple public accounts of his actions," the police statement said. "Inconsistencies between these public accounts and investigative facts led Allen Police Department to conduct a follow-up interview. During this interview, detectives determined that Mr. Spainhouer is not a credible incident witness."

The police response comes after Spainhouer made multiple appearances not only recounting his version of events, but calling for gun control legislation in response to the shooting. In an interview with MSNBC, Spainhouer said that he is a "someone who loves" guns but believed there needed to be "federal and state level" gun control.
"When you get hit with an automatic weapon fire at close range, there is no opportunity for survival," Spainhouer told MSNBC. "I don’t know what the gunman’s problem was, but it wasn’t mental health that killed these people. It was an automatic rifle with bullets."
