SPRINGFIELD, Mo. — Kindall Johnson woke up early that October Saturday to get to his fraternity’s Homecoming Day tailgate. On the way out the door of his parents’ house, he shouted a goodbye to his mother, Kathy Davis: “Love ya, Ma!” Davis watched her 22-year-old son, the youngest of her three boys, jog out to his car and leave, like he did any other day. He would never return. Johnson, not even a year out of the Marine Corps, a student struggling to readjust to civilian life, went to the tailgate but skipped the football game at Missouri State University in Springfield. Instead, he drove to the parking lot of a police station and shot himself twice in the chest.
