Relatives Of Buffalo Mass Shooter Blame COVID For His Attack
Kin Of Buffalo Mass Shooter Payton Gendron, Blames COVID For His Attack
Relatives of Buffalo’s supermarket-slaughter suspect are copping the COVID defense, telling the New York Post on Monday that the teen likely snapped because of his paranoia and isolation from the pandemic.
They added they had no clue their kin, accused 18-year-old Payton Gendron, was an alleged white supremacist and said he clearly needed help after threatening his high-school classmates almost a year ago — although they aren’t sure he ever got it.
“I have no idea how he could have gotten caught up in this. I blame it on COVID,’’ said Sandra Komoroff, 68, a cousin of Gendron’s mom Pamela, referring to the teen’s alleged hate-fueled rampage that left 10 black people dead at a Tops Friendly Market on Saturday.

“He was very paranoid about getting COVID, extremely paranoid, to the point that — his friends were saying — he would wear the hazmat suit [to school],” she said.
“”And then he got COVID just a few weeks ago. … He went to family functions with a respirator mask on. He totally wasn’t going to get COVID — and then he got COVID.
“They were vaxxed to the max,” she said of the family. “I don’t know if it was a bad case, I just know he caught it.”
She added that Gendron had “bought into the fear of COVID.
“That’s the only way to say it. And when you’re home all day on the Internet, you’re missing out on human contact,” Sandra said. “There’s a lot of emotions and a lot of body language you’re not getting [as] when you see their face.”
