It would seem to me, that someone who had a detention order placed on him, so that he could be evaluated, should have been required to answer YES to question 12F on the 4473.
You know there is already a call for more laws, when the laws we already have didn't weed out this guy.
If his mental health history were in the NICS database, might he have prevented from buying these firearms?

A court found that Virginia Tech killer Seung-Hui Cho was "mentally ill" and potentially dangerous. Then it let him go.
In December 2005 -- more than a year before Monday's mass shootings -- a district court in Montgomery County, Va., ruled that Cho presented "an imminent danger to self or others." That was the necessary criterion for a detention order, so that Cho, who had been accused of stalking by two female schoolmates, could be evaluated by a state doctor and ordered to undergo outpatient care.
