Two months ago a shooting took place at my place of
employment. Two people were killed. They weren't just co-
workers, but friends as well. Several days later we
learned that this whole incident could have possibly been
prevented. The man who did the shooting, had told people
at his place of employment (at lunch time) he was going to
go get his guns and kill his wife. Another employee who
overheard the conversation went to the foreman. It is a
large company and to protect the people in the plant his
badge was de-activated so he could not re-enter the
facility. They had another shooting(which involed loss of
life) at their plant a few months prior to this event. My
place of employment is fairly close to the other facility
and many people ther knew his wife and where she worked.
Was there any negligence on their part for not notifying
us of the possible danger or not calling the police and
reporting it. Everyone who was working at the time is
experiencing mental breakdowns due to the emotional
stress, but on the other hand can't afford to lose their
jobs. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks
