I've been thinking a lot about the role of the former employer, Sturgeon Electric Co., in all this. The fact that Apodaca was fired over a year before the tragic events makes me wonder if it triggered something deeper in him. It's chilling to read that Apodaca had made threats towards people connected to the company.
I can't help but feel for the co-workers who had to live with these threats and the anxiety that must have come with them. Dealing with someone who is both volatile and determined could not have been easy, and I hope the people involved are finding ways to heal from this.
It’s a sobering reminder of how workplace dynamics can have far-reaching impacts on personal lives. I wish more could have been done to prevent this—especially if an ERPO could have removed firearms from the equation. It’s a harsh wake-up call on how society needs to address such warning signs. My heart goes out to everyone affected by this, and I hope the legal system learns to navigate these serious red flags more effectively in the future.
