Sikh Temple Shooter's Ex-Girlfriend: Don't Focus On Me

She was arrested yesterday on suspicion of being a felon in possession of a handgun

The former girlfriend of Sikh temple shooter Wade Michael Page said in an exclusive email to the Los Angeles Times that she wanted the "heroes" of the tragedy to be the focus of attention -- not her.

"I have given no official statement," Misty Cook told The Times early Wednesday morning before elaborating on the reaction to the tragedy. Cook was arrested Tuesday on suspicion of being a felon in possession of a firearm.
