The killer, the gunman, the mad. That's Tristan van der Vlis, since the carnage he caused in the Ridderhof mall. AD is now exactly five years later, with his old classmates back in time.

Tristan sits in the front row, far left.

The sun is shining, as Tristan van der Vlis his picks clothes for the last time. Pants with camouflage print around his legs. Bulletproof vest. On his head is a shirt. "Shit happens on Saturday," it says on. He grabs his weapons.

It's Saturday, April 9, 2011, 11.45. And Tristan (24) goes to the mall Ridderhof.Hij know it from the past, when he was here as a child went shopping with his parents Hans and Marieke. Later it became the place where so many hung from his fellow students from Scala College, a free hour, pause, or truancy.

Now he parks his black Mercedes. Get off. Submit to. Firing a shot. The fall of Syrian refugees Nadim Youssef, died here on the street. The first victim. And Tristan runs through, in, in the mall. Baf, baf, baf. Blood on the floor. Fleeing people. Agony. Hannah Postma is bleeding withdrawn Kruidvat. Max Verbeek of the pet leaves its roller bags to protect the people here verschuilen.Op face Tristan some see a smile.

It is the laugh that Ronnie Zijderveld has as good of graduating K4K of vmbo. ,, I was much besides him, we were regularly twice.

I saw that "he sometimes drew guns, in the corner of his paper." "But who are looking for something out? ,, We were both quiet guys. ''

Similarly remembers Jinny is Tristan. Because she works with the police, she does not want her name in the newspaper. Tristan was the quiet guy, back of the class, always. Where he barely noticed her. What he noticed most girls, though. A friend he never had.
