The 2014 Isla Vista killings were two misogynistic terror attacks in Isla Vista, California. On the evening of Friday, May 23, 22-year-old Elliot Rodger killed six people and injured fourteen others by gunshot, stabbing and vehicle ramming near the campus of the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB), before fatally shooting himself.

Rodger stabbed his two roommates and their friend to death in his apartment, ambushing and killing them separately as they arrived. About two hours later, he drove to a sorority house and, after failing to get inside, shot three women outside, two of whom died. He next drove past a nearby deli and shot and killed a man who was inside. He then drove around Isla Vista, shooting and wounding several pedestrians from his car and striking others with his car. He exchanged gunfire with police twice and was injured in the hip. After his car crashed into a parked vehicle, he was found dead inside with a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head.

Before driving to the sorority house, Rodger uploaded a video to YouTube titled "Elliot Rodger's Retribution", in which he outlined his planned attack and his motives. He explained that he wanted to punish women for rejecting him, and sexually active men because he envied them. He also emailed a lengthy autobiographical manuscript to friends, his therapist, and family members; the document appeared on the Internet and became widely known as his manifesto. In it, he described his childhood, family conflicts, frustration over his inability to find a girlfriend, his hatred of women, his contempt for couples, and his plans for what he described as "retribution".
Attacks

On May 23, 2014, 22-year-old Elliot Rodger, carrying 6- and 8-inch "SRK" and nine-inch boar hunting knife, first attacked his roommate, 20-year-old Weihan "David" Wang, as he entered their apartment. As Wang tried to defend himself, he was stabbed 15 times and suffered 23 slashes. Rodger dragged Wang's body to the corner of a bedroom and threw it on the floor facedown, partially covering it with blankets, towels, and clothing. 20-year-old Cheng Yuan "James" Hong, Rodger's other roommate, was still wearing his backpack and entered the apartment. He was ambushed by Rodger, and despite his attempts to defend himself, Hong was stabbed 25 times and slashed 12 times. Rodger dragged Hong's body to the same bedroom, throwing it face down halfway on top of Wang's body, also concealing Hong's body with blankets and clothing. The final victim, 19-year-old George Chen, Hong and Wang's friend, arrived at the apartment last to visit them. Upon entering, Rodger immediately attacked Chen, stabbing him 94 times and slashing him 11 times as he attempted to defend himself. Rodger left Chen's body in a bathroom in a pool of blood. Rodger tried to clean the apartment's hallways and hide evidence of the earlier stabbings as each victim entered. He tried using bathroom towels and paper towels to clean up the blood, but they quickly became soaked.
After killing the three men, Rodger got out of his blood-drenched clothes and entangled them with his bed sheets. He showered, put on new clothes, went to Starbucks, and bought a triple-vanilla latte while texting his mother he would call her later.Less than two hours after his Starbucks visit, Rodger emailed a 137-page manifesto called My Twisted World: The Story of Elliot Rodger to 34 people, including his parents, friends, and therapists. Rodger then uploaded a video on YouTube called "Elliot Rodger's Retribution" minutes before leaving.Rodger's mother was alerted by a call from her son's life coach Gavin Linderman to check an email her son sent. After opening it, she read his manifesto before finding the "Retribution" video online. She called Rodger's father and both rushed towards the university while contacting the police.Rodger first went to the Alpha Phi sorority house with three semi automatic pistols, additional ammunition strapped to his waist, and a full gas can. He tried to open the door, pulling on the handle before typing on the keypad numerous times. He then knocked on the door for over three minutes. Unable to enter, he became frustrated and set the gas can down. He returned to his car where he then noticed three members of the Delta Delta Delta sorority, 19-year-old Veronika Weiss, 22-year-old Katherine Cooper, and a 20-year-old woman, walking around the corner of the Alpha Phi sorority.
