Shane Tamura, an armed man at the NFL headquarters, had cte: forensic doctor

Shane Tamura, who led through the country of Las Vegas and opened fire at the NFL headquarters in New York, killing Cuatro, had CTE, said Friday the office of the main forensic doctor of New York City, confirming what was in the writings of the shooter.

The police found a three -page note in the tamura pocket claiming that he had a traumatic brain injury and blame the NFL for “hiding the dangers for players’ brains to maximize profits.”

In another place, Tamura wrote: “Study my brain please. I’m sorry.”

Tamura died of a self -inflicted gunshot wound.

“After an exhaustive evaluation and an extensive analysis by our experts in neuropathology, OCME has found evidence of unequivocal diagnosis of chronic traumatic encephalopathy, also known as CTE, in the deceased brain tissue. The results correspond to the classification of low stage CTE, according to the current consensus criteria,” said the examining doctor. “CTE can be found in the brains of the deceased with a history of repeated exposure to the trauma of the head. Science around this condition continues to evolve, and CTE’s physical and mental manifestations remain studied.”

The forensic doctor’s office said that Tamura died for suicide of a self -inflicted gunshot wound. Pathologists do not say if CTE played a role.

Four people died in the shooting: a security guard for the building; a Blackstone executive who was a wife and mother; a police officer who was the father of two children; and a young Rudin Management employee.
