An ex-classmate who worked with Betts at a fast food restaurant claims he threatened to kill customers who didn't leave tips and another said he regularly spoke of rape and decapitation.

'Conner Betts was a psychopath... I remember when he threatened to shoot up our school and had a hit list of people that he wanted to kill. I've worked with him too and he scared the employees on a daily basis,' Bri Monique said.

'Everyone who knew him knew he had issues. I would tell people all the time to just stay away from him because he's threatened to kill people.
'When the customers didn't tip him, he would threaten to go to their house and kill them. I thought he was just all talk but then I would be at work by myself with him and hear him chanting things that sounded like he was worshiping the devil. I would be calling his name for him to stop and he wouldn't answer.'

He was described by one former classmate as a 'real scumbag' who allegedly threatened to kill women and attack his school.
'You can blame bullying (which would be lying), you can blame media (which would be extremely untruthful) or you can blame a society where threats against women that are bad enough to get you kicked out of high school are simply forgotten and allowed to ferment for almost a decade so he can kill nine people,' Ben Seitz wrote on Facebook....

'There was an incident in high school with this shooter that should have prevented him from ever getting his hands on a weapon. This was a tragedy that was 100% avoidable,' he wrote on in a Twitter post on Sunday.
