@Gordon:
Yes, the shooter - Michael W. Kennedy was schizophrenic.
Earley wrote an op-ed for the Post in tribute to Detective Armel. She went far out of her way to get his son Mike appropriate mental care rather than locking him up.
From the op-ed:
"A good police officer, loving wife and mother of two children is dead. Her murder was preventable. Her killer should have gotten treatment. Their deaths should serve as a wake-up call. How many more police officers will be murdered; how many young men and women with untreated mental disorders must die, before we reform a disgraceful mental health system that fails to treat the sick and protect the innocent?"

I definitely feel for the police who are having to deal with Scott's situation.
