The Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention is focusing on combating violent extremism to prevent ideologically motivated crimes. In light of the recent school shooting at Campus Risbergska, it's noted that while the school had emergency protocols, the suspected perpetrator's profile and motives remain unclear. Research suggests lone individuals committing school violence often experience social isolation and psychological trauma. The school had conducted drills for emergencies but had not previously engaged with expert agencies for such specific training, highlighting potential gaps in preparation for severe incidents.
Research indicates there are recurring factors in lone-acting individuals committing school attacks, often linked to social exclusion and psychosocial issues.
The school had rehearsed responses for severe incidents but the extent of preparedness is unclear, with no previous cooperation with the Centre for Violence Extremism.
