White and Hispanic from what I've read. There was at least another Hispanic that was shot but didn't die.
From what I can glean from the limited information that's available, kid had an infatuation with "happy endings" that didn't jive with the repression of his religious upbringing. He spent 6 months in a rehab clinic for his sex addiction and was kicked out of the home by his parent the day before because of obsessive porn watching.
I don't know if he is anti-Asian but from what I've been told they are the dominant actresses in his fetish as are the predominant owners/massage therapists though I have no first hand experience in either. This kid knew where to target and drove 27 miles between the first and the second/third Asian massage parlors.
Personally, I want more information before declaring the act was or wasn't racially motivated. I can't imagine the bridge between obsessing over "happy endings" to murdering 8 people. There must be more to the story that has yet to unfold.
