IF SOMEONE TELLS YOU THEY WANT TO KILL YOU, MAYBE YOU SHOULD LISTEN

AKA Revenge is a Dish Best Served Cold

by Bob Walsh

Dr. Henry Bello was the shooter at the Bronx-Lebannon Hospital on Friday. He left seven people shot, including himself. Two died, including himself. He told them he was going to do it. Then he did.

Two hours before he showed up and started shooting Bello sent an email to a local newspaper. That email railed against the hospital and a specific doctor for derailing his medical career. He told his colleagues back in 2015, when he was forced to resign over a sexual harassment complaint, that he would come back and kill them.

Dr. David Lazala was the target of Bello's rage. He was NOT at the hospital when the shooting happened.

I grant you that 2 years is kind of a long lag time for a boil-over. When he sent in an email two HOURS before the shooting started, one would hope that somebody at the paper might have given a heads-up to the hospital and/or the cops, wouldn't one? Oh well, maybe they will do it better next time.
