IANAL but it would seem that they could hold separate trials for each victim and then stack the sentences instead of having them run concurrently.

He (the father) indicated his kid was a "good boy" but he had been bullied and "mistreated at the school". From the article, "Antonios Pagourtzis wouldn’t comment in his interview with the Journal on how his son acquired the weapons."

This is on the parents as much as it is on the kid. Lock up the guns and ammo and the percentages and probability of the shooting goes way down. You want to tighten the gun laws... put it on the parents to be responsible enough to lock up the guns if they have anyone in their house - minor or otherwise.

The first degree is the guy that is just waiting for an excuse to throw a rock through a window. Second degree does it because the first guy did and then all the way up to the person that wouldn't think of ever stealing something is grabbing things out of the window in the frenzy. Columbine laid out a pretty clear script and it seems many of the subsequent shooters have followed it to some degree. With each new shooter the next level is emboldened.

Can you tell me who was executed for a mass shooting?

Too bad SCOTUS says you can't execute 17 year olds. Santa Fe HS shooter is a poster boy for the death penalty.
