COBB COUNTY, Ga. — The man who walked into a Kennesaw FedEx sorting facility and shot six employees said he is "not sad or sorry for the misery I've caused," according to a note left before his suicide.
On April 29, Geddy Kramer, 19, walked into the facility where he worked and fired a shotgun at six people, critically injuring two of them. Kramer later turned the gun on himself.
The most critically wounded in the shooting, security guard Christopher Sparkman, remains hospitalized 10 days later after undergoing multiple surgeries. The other victims are home recovering.
Channel 2's Ross Cavitt obtained letters Kramer wrote before the shooting to explain his actions. They give rare insight into the mental state of a man preparing for mass murder.
"This paints a very disturbing picture of that individual but really no reason why he did what he did," Cobb County Sgt. Dana Pierce said.
"I want it known that I attempted to get help not only from a therapist but I've also medicated with several types of drugs, most of which were illegal," Kramer wrote.
The papers are entitled "Final Requests" and "Final Thoughts."
"It should be noted that my first choice for my massacre would start with anyone who sold me drugs and a few others on my "(obscenity) List," he wrote.
Kramer wrote that he had a paper journal with plans, attack patterns and recipes for explosives.
Kramer also noted that he hid the items within a 35-mile radius of his home.
"They're exposed to the elements so you'd better hurry," he wrote.
He fails to reveal his true motivation for shooting coworkers but writes the motive is in his journals, "You figure it out."
Kramer writes that he is not sorry for the misery he caused.
"This was not motivated by media, music, video games or any one person. This was personally and I guess to a small extent politically motivated," Kramer said.
Police said the letters may not fully explain the shootings but they may be used for training.
"Not so much the content of what's in the letter but understanding that a disturbed person like this could indeed be a part of an active shooting situation," Pierce said.
Karmer said he didn't suddenly snap, but rather worked up to the shooting over several months.
"This was the result of my own issues, mental instability, depression, frustrations, sexual isolation. I know I shouldn't complain. I've got a comfortable place to sleep. Warm food. But the fact that a field of nothingness and unconcienessness (sic) awaites me if I put a 12 gauge shell in my brain is appealing," he wrote.
Kramer ends his final thoughts by making it clear the shooting was his own decision.
"I'm a sociopath. I want to hurt people," he wrote. "This is not anyones fault but mine. Mine"
