Editing Wesley Neal Higdon (section)

==Background==
Higdon was a press operator employed by an Atlantis Plastics warehouse in Henderson, Kentucky. He had a reputation for being difficult and was repeatedly reprimanded by his supervisor, forty year old Kevin Taylor on the day of the rampage. First, Taylor confronted Higdon over using his mobile phone while operating a press and not wearing safety goggles. Later, Taylor had words with Higdon over an altercation between Higdon and his colleague, twenty eight old Joshua Hinojosa at a convenience store located across the street from the factory.

Two hours before the shooting, a disgruntled Higdon called his girlfriend, then twenty year old Teresa Solano Ventura and told her that he wanted to kill his supervisor. She failed to act on this warning.
