I watched a tv programe on wabash valley and a guy commited fraud of $700.000 and they gave him 30 years what evil bastads. The guy is not a murderer or rapist your justice system sucks.

Look carefully at 1:24 an pause i swear he has a 40oz. bottle in his hand WTF.

[joshlahrman]

he is a weird M/F. My wife works at the state hospital he is incarcerated at. She is to deal with his B/S every day. He now just shoves things into his stomach instead of swallowing them. he "said" he just wants to die. He'll never get back out into the real world. They should just put him to rest for good.

I would like to see what he is like without the medication. Aside from some general scruffiness and the tattoos he doesn't look or act so ill. I find that somewhat more frightening in a way.

so they will be letting him out soon. It's nice to see they are keeping him alive for his release date. Yeah, money, the economy, its amazing what people/corporations will allow

Most mental illness is basically a disease of the brain. The brain can get diseases just like any other body organ (heart, kidneys, etc.) Anybody could get such an illness; there are no guarantees.
