Scary things happening here.

Sounds like the guy has needed some serious help, didn't get it in time.

cocaine appears to be the root cause of this.

Drug induced psychoses or delusions are real things, but far less common that schizophrenia or other mental illness. Cops always like to blame anything rather than mental illness for crimes.

CTE has to be considered.

Cue Whoopi Goldberg meme.

also, what is “assault with extreme indifference”? Isn’t the attempted murder charge enough?

This hits on my first impression when I saw the story. Scary stuff for the victim but when I start seeing Russian mafia and disposing of the cell phone you have to at least wonder what is happening in his head.

Add to that the possibility (probability) of some CTE issues and it gets complicated.

The drugs probably were an important factor but drug use is also often a case of people with other issues self-medicating. They know something is wrong but can't get a grip on it. The drugs at least temporarily allow them to feel less "wrong."

Lefty, the other time? I’m not aware.

It was a poke at Mtn., there was a thread in the newsroom a few hours ago about it, hence the crack abou tthe same incident happening before. I probably should not have made Justin Bannan the foil of that joke. It is a serious situation and I am hoping for the best for the woman who was shot, and for Justin Bannan.

Sorry for the confusion.

Bannan was the one that ran over McChesney with the golf cart. They used to be friends, but that ended that relationship.

 

[JMBuffs]

Bannan swing and hit Sam Wilder with his helmet...or was that Brayton?

CTE has to be considered.

That was my first thought

All makes sense me - if the Russian mafia is after you, first thing you do is shoot your acupuncturist. That’s like Survival 101.

Dwight? Dwight Schrute, is that you?

 

[DBT]

Sad story. Sad for the victim, for his family and friends and for him.

 

[Ralfie]

It’s spelled “Dwigt”.

Seriously? That's who was responsible? Was it an accident or intentional? DANG

 

[Zapata]

Cocaine's a hell of a drug

Hope she’s ok and he recovers, too.
