Jeremy Richman lost his six-year-old daughter in Sandy Hook shooting
Signs hang outside Edmond Town Hall, a building in Newtown, Conn., where Jeremy Richman, father of Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting victim Avielle Richman, had an office. He was found dead at the building early on March 25, 2019.On the day of his 6-year-old daughter’s funeral, as Jeremy Richman and his wife gathered with loved ones, an idea emerged for a way to channel their grief: a foundation to promote research into the brain pathologies that lead to violence.
Richman dedicated himself to the cause, becoming known locally and nationally for his advocacy on mental health issues, up until his death on Monday. He was found dead in an apparent suicide inside a Newtown community event centre where he had an office, according to police. He was 49.
Richman and his wife Jennifer Hensel, both scientists, created the foundation to promote research into how a propensity for violence is manifested. Richman, a neuroscientist, eventually left his job as a researcher at a pharmaceutical company to focus full-time on the foundation. Richman developed a national profile as a lecturer and advocate. He had a meeting on mental health with then-President Barack Obama. In 2015, he received an appointment as a lecturer in psychiatry at Yale’s medical school.
