"He believed in his mind that he was on a mission from God. He felt compelled to carry out the killings." Prosecutors say the killings were racially motivated and Skibicki preyed on the victims at homeless shelters. Das said he interviewed Skibicki twice and studied the killer's medical files, criminal record and social media posts.
Throughout his teen years, Skibicki took antidepressants but still struggled with violent episodes and narcissistic personality traits, said Das.
