I’m glad they didn’t show a flashback. Keeps it mysterious and open for interpretation. This film was heartbreaking! End of an era.

In reply to Q Norris. Personally, I love the fact that they didn't show us. The way that the film hints at Westchester through Patrick Stewart's performance makes it more special. I think if they showed it, the performances and the film would lose something special.

Professor X did not take the lives of all the X-Men as this article states. The radio broadcast Logan was listening to said that the Westchester incident resulted in the deaths of 600 people and 7 mutants, including several of the X-Men. This means that only a few members of the X-Men died (so maybe about three or four). The other mutants mentioned were most likely some of Xavier’s students.
I would guess that the X-Men deaths included Jean Grey and Magneto. Jean’s death would explain why neither she nor Cyclops (his two star pupils) were there assisting Xavier after the incident. Jean is absent obviously because she’s dead, and Cyclops because he resents Xavier for killing her. Jean is also a telepath, and so would have been more vulnerable to a psychic attack. Magneto had also joined up with the X-Men in Days of Future Past and seemed to be in good terms with Xavier at the end of Apocalypse, so he might have become an X-Man. I feel like Magneto, as one of Charles’ closest friends would also be by his side after the incident… unless of course it resulted in his death. I also think Beast would definitely be assisting Logan in caring for Charles, so perhaps he had an unfortunate demise in the incident as well. The others that survived probably went off to live their lives because Logan told them to. He knew he was the only one that could survive another psychic attack from Charles, so he took him away and the X-Men fell apart.

I think the movie was great but I wished they would have shown a flashback what did happen. Seeing what lead them to the world they were in. Maybe it will be in the deleted scenes on bluray.
