A lot of people with Bipolar Disorder can do very risky things, including some criminality and are a danger to themselves and others and sometimes use too much substances, even if it is illegal drugs.
They put themselves at risk and not let anyone help.

I am sorry that I felt worried that there is a connection between Autism and murder. NOT literal cause of murder, but when some people with ASD commit crimes, they tend to have lots of psychiatric disorders from being constantly victimized and bullied by their peers in the past. And psychiatric disorders, even psychosis is a lot more common with ASD than in the general population, because of their history of developmental delay. If Autism does not get treated, the person with ASD can develop personality disorders that may lead to criminality as a coping mechanism with no fault of their own, because of the problems with society depending on the location.
Most people with Intellectual Disability with symptoms of ASD are ten times more likely to be victims than being perpetrators and are less likely to develop Antisocial Personality Disorder, NPD or Delusion of grandeur, because they are very childish and have problems with Learning and Intellectual and adaptive functioning.
I am only talking about small subgroups with HFA that have conduct disorders and anger issues, Bipolar and related disorders and depressive disorders and psychosis combined.

Conclusion:
There is a link between having developmental disorders and being a victim of being bullied. Although mass murder is rare. It is not uncommon for some people with HFA to go on rampage on people who bullied them the most.

Results:
If you add all statistics of developmental disorders together, you will see that people with ASD in general are no more likely to commit crimes than the general population and are more likely to be victims according to my study.
There was a new forensic study that link high-functioning Autism to criminal behaviors without intention, because of abnormal social skills.
The same study says that these people with this form of Autism are much more likely to commit crimes than all others in the ASD population.
That is because by high-functioning means that you have neurotypical traits as well.
The reason why people with High-functioning Autism have the same criminal rates as the general population, is because they can preform neurotypical tasks, have average or above average IQ and they tend to have more intact social skills than all other ASD population.
Heck, people with this form of Autism can do military jobs and join the army.
ASD is such a broad disorder that even convicted criminals can be diagnosed with some form of ASD in jails or prisons.
This was once known as PDD-NOS where a person does not have all traits of Asperger Syndrome, but have some form of developmental disorder related to Autistic Disorder, but a mildest form of ASD.
Myhre’s team investigated marital status, mortality and criminal records, and disability pension awards for 113 individuals who would meet contemporary criteria for autism. Of that number, 39 fall into the PDD-NOS category. More than half the participants — including 23 of the 39 with PDD-NOS — have an intelligence quotient (IQ) of 70 or less.
All were treated in the children’s unit at the National Centre for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry in Oslo, Norway, between 1968 and 1988. The researchers tracked these participants using government-issued identification numbers.
They found that by age 22, 96 percent of the group had been awarded a disability pension from the government. Nearly all were unmarried — 99 percent of those with autistic disorder, compared with 92 percent of those with PDD-NOS. The crime rate for the group as a whole was little more than half that of the general population, although more individuals with PDD-NOS than autism had been convicted of a crime.
There is a psychotic component to having Pervasive Developmental Disorders, even though the the DSM-5 only show this; Persistent deficits in social communication and Severity is based on social communication impairments and restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior. But I think ASD is way more than just that.
However people with ASD can have an IQ under 80+ or above 80+
This is what ASD is:
ASD level 2-3:
* Missing some social cues
* Missed all social cues
*Difficulty using and understanding language.[7]
* Difficulty relating to people, objects, and events;[7] for example, lack of eye contact, pointing behavior, and lack of facial responses.
* Unusual play with toys and other objects.[7]
* Difficulty with changes in routine may result in hallucinations (typically hearing voices), delusions, and disorganized thinking, social withdrawal, decreased emotional expression, and apathy..[7]
* Repetitive body movements or behavior patterns,[7] such as hand flapping, hair twirling, foot tapping, or more complex movements.
* Inability to cuddle or be comforted.
* Difficulty regulating behaviors and emotions, which may result in temper tantrums, anxiety, and aggression.
* Emotional breakdowns.
* Preoccupation with fantasies that interfere and that are not normal to have at a certain age depending on social, cultural and religious norms.
* Delusional perception of the world
* Different severity of sensory issues
* Manipulative daydreaming
* Bizarre interests
ASD level 1:
It is common for individuals with ASD level1 to have more intact social skills and a lower level of intellectual deficit than individuals with other Levels of ASD level 2-3.[3] Characteristics of many individuals with ASD level 1 are:
* Communication difficulties (e.g., using and understanding language)[7]
* Difficulty with social behavior
* Paranoia, a characteristic form of social anxiety, derealization, transient psychosis, and unconventional beliefs if the environment changed without further notice
* Uneven skill development (strengths in some areas and delays in others)
* Unusual play with toys and other objects
* Repetitive body movements or behavior patterns
* Preoccupation with fantasies that interfere and that are not normal to have at a certain age depending on social, cultural and religious norms.
* Unconventional perception of the world
* Manipulative daydreaming
* Obsessive-compulsive interests
Correlation between mass shooting and history of being bullied.
There is no direct link from being a mass shooter and being bullied. In fact, most people that are bullied commit suicide as a result of being bullied. However, there are some people who want to seek sadistic revenge on their bullies. Another statistic fact is that most people with mental health and developmental disorders are ten times more likely to be victims of being bullied and violence than the general population.
