Laird had described Quick as a voracious reader who had thou- sands of books. The affidavit said Quick told the investigator that in prepar- ing for the campus attack, he had sharpened various things, includ- ing a hairbrush and pencils, to use as weapons. However, authorities have said Quick used only a razor utility knife to slash at his victims on two floors of the college’s health science building. They said a scal- pel was found in a backpack he was carrying when he was arrested. Authorities have said students tackled Quick and held him down outside the building until police arrived. Texas does not permit people to carry handguns on campuses, but lawmakers are considering al- lowing concealed permit holders to take their weapons into college buildings and classrooms. A Texas House panel approved such a bill Thursday, sending it to the full House. Supporters say it’s a self-defense measure that will help prevent campus shootings and assaults. Opponents argue that allowing guns into campus buildings in- creases the chances for violence. Quick had been set to make his first court appearance Thursday, but Laird waived the reading of the probable cause statement so his cli- ent would not have to be in court. Quick’s next hearing is May 10. If convicted, Quick faces up to 20 years in prison. “We just didn’t want to have a media circus at this point in time,” Laird said. When asked about claims by the Harris County Sheriff’s Of- fice that Quick admitted to having fantasies about stabbing people since he was 8 years old, Laird said, “They’ve got a statement from him, but that’s not the whole story.” “There are other things that I need to find out about and then we will provide the whole story to the public so that they can understand what happened,” he said. Laird said Quick had been home-schooled for most of his life and that he had been enrolled at Lone Star in part so he could be around other people and “get some type of feel for what the rest of the world is like as opposed to just liv- ing at home ... and being home- schooled by his mother.” Laird said Quick’s parents hadn’t had any major problems with their son, though he did ap- parently go missing for a few days in January 2011. Quick’s parents had contact- ed Texas EquuSearch, a private Houston-area group that searches for missing people, after getting a text message from their son saying “he was leaving because he might possibly harm himself,” said Frank Black, a case adviser with the orga- nization.Black said he and others with his group were set to begin a search for Quick when his parents contacted them three days after the initial report, saying they had found their son and he was safe.
