The US police took custody of a scientist from the University of California Rainer Reinshad. He is suspected of a series of arson, as well as in preparing a mass massacre at school. The teacher conceived these crimes after his son committed suicide. Suicide father considered that the school administration was to blame for the tragedy, the newspaper The Washington Post writes.
The 48-year-old Rainer Reinsheid, who has the degree of adjunct professor (corresponds to the Russian title of associate professor) at the department of pharmaceuticals of the University of California, is accused of at least five arson. All of them occurred in the period from July 1 to July 19 in the training premises, in the house of the deputy director of the school and in the park, where the son of Reinshada hanged himself.
In the disposal of investigators, there are also evidence that expands Reinsheid in the preparation of the bloody massacre in the walls of the educational institution. The victims of the attacker were to be both teachers and students.
According to the police, the scientist stood on the criminal path after the death of his 14-year-old son Klaas Stube. The boy came across small theft from the store at school, after which he was reprimanded and was obliged to remove the tables for other students after lunch as a punishment. In March 2012, the young man hanged himself in the park of Mason Park Preserv, and his father decided that the administration of a prestigious school and classmates brought to the suicide of his son. True, the police and the Department of Education do not confirm the version of the persecution.
Fantasies "Mank-Mostiva"
After the death of his son, Reinsheid fell into depression for a month and a half and suffered from insomnia. As a result, he decided to take revenge for his son an educational institution, writes The Daily Mail .
After the rainsheid’s arrest, the police found an electronic correspondence with his wife in his smartphone. In letters, he described in detail his sophisticated plan of retaliation. The scientist intended to buy a whole arsenal of 12 weapons. Then the criminal armed to the teeth would have appeared at school and shot 200 of her students. Reinsheid also intended to rape a social teacher and kill the deputy director, who subjected his son punishment for theft.
“I will make him cry and pray for mercy. But I will not leave him a single chance (to live) and will do with him the same way he did with Klaas,” the teacher who was distraught from the death of his son wrote.
The offender of the boy had to die with a slow painful death.
Reinsheida was overwhelmed by other strange fantasies on the subject of reprisals at school. He imagined how he would have sex with numerous students, and would also be mocked the teacher. The teacher wanted to force the teacher to undress naked to the schoolchildren, and then hurt himself with a red pencil for the marks. Only after that the Reinsheid was supposed to kill the teacher with a shot in the head.
In the end, Reinsheid wanted to burn the school to the ground with him. “It will be a wonderful end and I will very soon reunite with Klaas. I like this plan. A very good idea,” the attacker wrote.
He also admitted his wife in love, asked her forgiveness and expressed a desire to die where his son hanged himself. Reinsheid admonished his wife that she would have to bring two children left alone.
Paradoxically, letters with these terrible plans did not become the basis for new accusations, since the police did not find signs that Reinsheid began to purchase weapons and implement the plan. In addition, as an explained representative of the district prosecutor Farra Emami, Reinsheid only conducted private correspondence. He did not threaten anyone and only shared emotions with his wife.
Rainer Reinsheid was detained on July 24 when trying the next arson, said police lieutenant Irvin Julia Engin.
Before detecting the letters of Reinsheid, he was detained with the right to get bail of 50 thousand dollars. However, on Tuesday, the court, having familiarized himself with new materials, recognized the vengeful university teacher as a dangerous criminal and he was imprisoned without the right to secure them. While he is charged with five episodes with arson, one attempt on arson and police resistance. The scientist faces 13 years in prison, reports "Right.ru" with reference to the Associated Press.
According to a colleague and an old friend of the accused Oliver Severi, Reinsheid looked devastated after his son’s death. But he did not give out his intentions to commit violence in a single word or gesture in order to quench the thirst for revenge.
“This is no longer Rainer whom I know. Rainer was different - he was kind and he never had weapons,” said Oliver Severi.
According to lawyer Jacqueline Goodman, Reinsheid wrote terrible letters under the influence of alcohol and medicines. In this case, it is necessary to take into account his spiritual state.
Rainer Reinshid, who had not only American, but also German citizenship, worked at the University of California for about 12 years. Every day, he came to the university on a bicycle and was listed there as a quite successful employee. So, under his leadership, a group of scientists in 2004 discovered in the brain protein neuropeptide S (NPS), which reduces anxiety, reduces stress levels and normalizes sleep. Probably, this discovery will allow in the future to create more effective sleeping pills and cure narcolemps - a severe sleep disorder.
Other works by Reinsheid are devoted to schizophrenia, stress and various mental disorders in the context of molecular pharmacology.
We add that Klaas was the son of Reinsheid from his first marriage.
