The Story of David Edwin Mason

The story of David Edwin Mason’s life was the result of childhood neglect combined with an undiagnosed mental illness. Even as a young kid, he suffered from abuse in multiple ways, while also not being mentally strong enough to deal with the bullying he received. As a teenager, he experimented with multiple ways to commit suicide, like hanging, cutting, throwing himself down the stairs and even setting himself on fire. David then turned his aggression outwards and began attacking fellow classmates and teachers, getting into several run-ins with the law. After a failed stint in the Marine Corps, he went back to his criminal ways, even resorting to murder seemingly for menial financial gains, as his victims were the most vulnerable of our society. Even behind prison walls, his thirst for blood couldn't be quenched.
