The killing of a teaching assistant by another teaching assistant (with whom he worked) sounds like an act of extreme rage. The killer brought not just a handgun but a knife, and he used both on the victim.
Once he got his rage out of his system, the killer seems to have relaxed quietly just outside the building.
Police say when an officer arrived, he spotted Cousins sitting on the ground outside the building with his hands behind his head.
Head resting in hands would have been What the hell did I just do? I just killed someone and ruined my life.
Hands behind head suggest Ahhhh. That’s done.

Maybe he was actually sitting up with his hands behind his head in anticipation of the police handcuffing him.

Maybe. He all but begged them to arrest him.
