ACWORTH, Ga. - Police on Wednesday charged a 21-year-old man with murder, a day after eight people were shot dead at three Asian spas in and around Atlanta in a killing spree that sharply amplified fears among Asian Americans over a nationwide surge in hate crimes and bigoted rhetoric.
Authorities said Robert Aaron Long had confessed to the killings and had told investigators he had a sexual addiction. Long indicated he may have frequented the spas in the past, police said, and that they were a temptation for him that he wanted to eliminate.
