title: Letter from the Grave
---

Robert Flores is the man who shot two nursing professors, a student, and himself at the University of Arizona last week. One of his last acts before the shootings was to mail a 23 page letter trying to explain himself to a local newspaper. That letter has been scanned in and [posted in its entirety](http://cgi3.azstarnet.com/specialreport/) by the Arizona Star. (Note: the server is very slow and you are likely to get "timeout" errors at some or all of the pages. Just hit relaod until it comes through.) Compare that with a [letter written by Cheryl McGaffic](http://medweb.uwcm.ac.uk/martha/MyHeart.htm), one of his victims.
