Cops were warned two weeks ago over Rodger’s daunting Youtube videos..
University staff called police several weeks ago after being alarmed by YouTube videos made by Elliot Rodger “regarding suicide and the killing of people.”
Attorney Alan Shifman said police conducted an investigation and interviewed the man. Shifman said police did not find a history of guns, but did say the man had trouble making friends.
Shifman is the attorney for Peter Rodger, who was an assistant director on “The Hunger Games” film series. Authorities have not confirmed the identity of the shooter. source
