After his shooting rampage in west Cumbria, police found extreme internet pornography on his computer.
The 52-year-old killed 12 people and injured 11 before shooting himself on 2 June 2010.
In a statement read out to the inquest into the deaths, Ms Fee said he did not support her when her sister was diagnosed with terminal cancer.
