This is from USA Today
Bild reported that on several occasions his training at Lufthansa's flight school in Phoenix, Ariz., was interrupted for mental health reasons after he had a "serious depressive episode." The German tabloid reported that Lubitz may even have undergone treatment after being what it called "demoted" several times during his training in the United States

Got it, the story is moving soo quickly I thought I missed it. I assume they are talking to his parents at this point, may be they can shed some light on this clearly disturbed individual.
