hmm..that's fine if the authorities want to investigate the reasons..but that is what it should be "REASONS" not excuses....'blaming' something or someone else is unacceptable to me; a person is responsible for their own actions...if they feel their actions are justified they have to accept the consequences.

Who has been blaming anybody? Who has been looking for excuses?
The point of finding reasons is possible future prevention.
serious crayons:
Explanations and excuses are two different things. Finding explanations could lead to methods of prevention. The point isn't to let the perpetrators off the hook.
