On April 10, Sturgeon, 25, opened fire on co-workers at the Old National Bank, killing five people before being shot and killed by police. Despite the fact that he'd been undergoing anxiety and depression, he had legalizedly purchased his AR-15 rifle days earlier, passing background checks. His family was left in shock over what could have caused him to commit such violence. Now, they say they will have his brain tested for CTE.

A Los Angeles jury will hear from the widow of a former University of Southern California football player suing the NCAA for failing to shield her husband from repetitive head injury. Matthew Gee died in 2018 after suffering permanent brain damage from numerous blows to the head while playing linebacker for the 1990 Rose Bowl winning team, according to Alana Gee's wrongful death lawsuit. Gee's is only the second of hundreds of wrongful death and personal injury lawsuits brought by college football players against the NCAA in the last decade, and it was only the second to go to trial alleging that hits to the head led to chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a degenerative brain disorder. It could be the first time a jury could reach a convicted person.
