In all fairness, the doctors who discharged Cho (the Va. Tech killer) were following standard guidelines in finding that he was not a threat at the time. Some people are truly good at keeping their psychoses to themselves.
This doesn't speak to preenting future instances...the only thing I can think of would be to help de-stigmatize mental illness even more so that people might be encouraged to seek help with less worry about the consequences of being known as ill.
