University of Nevada Las Vegas gunman had erectile dysfunction meds and oxycodone in his system during mass shooting: report

The professor-turned-mass shooter who killed three people at the University of Nevada Las Vegas in December had oxycodone and meds for erectile dysfunction in his system when he opened fire in the targetted attack.Anthony Polito, who had failed to get a professorship at the university despite several attempts, had tadalafil — which is used to treat ED — and 15 nanograms per milliliter of oxycodone in his system, according to a Clark County coroner’s report obtained by 8 News Now.The typical dose of oxycodone prescribed to adults is five milligrams every six hours, the report stated.

“He said to me that if I wore a shirt that low cut for the rest of the semester, I’d be sure to get an A,” Kristin Marshburn said.She immediately reported his sleazy comment to the business school’s dean and Polito never returned to class after the report was made.
