He blamed East Carolina University for costing him his career and destroying his reputation, his previously posted online ramblings show.

The man who fatally shot three people last week at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, had resigned from another school, despite having tenure, after a female student accused him of making a sexual comment about her appearance.

Kristin Marshburn said she was sitting in the front row of Anthony Polito’s business course at East Carolina University in Greenville, North Carolina, in 2016 when he walked in and made the remark.

“He said to me that if I wore a shirt that low cut for the rest of the semester, I’d be sure to get an A,” Marshburn, now 28, told NBC News.

      It’s not like he did it for the glory though, he just wanted revenge. If he killed indiscriminately and his website was a manifesto, then I’d be more concerned about people sharing it.

      This website is clear insight into who he was, which brings gravity and dimension to the flat “man kills people” story that’s just white noise

      I think it provides a lot of context. The list of conspiracy theories is enlightening and should be a warning for people unfamiliar. People always ask why did someone do something so terrible, and here’s something to shed some light. Maybe we can prevent more violence?

      I’m a UNLV grad btw.
