Early intervention and mental healthcare is desperately needed in the United States
Who would've thought that violent acts and outbursts could be prevented if a person got or had access to mental help. A sane person doesnt drive a car through a crowd or shoot somebody.
Ur so right!!! Crazy’s don’t know they’re crazy.
Good luck. It doesn't make anyone rich
Needed but will never be received
People aren't allowed to suggest that your child may have some early issues that can balloon later. They take it as an insult and shun the idea. Then resent the kid.
I remember my dip into insanity. Persecution Delusion, Stage 1 Brain Cancer, I was in the hospital and thought the doctors were trying to kill me and my family members. That’s scary as shit. I went insane in the hospital but I’ve worked my way back to sanity and came to the conclusion that they saved my life and helped me back to sanity. It is scary as hell being at the mercy of your own mind. I don’t hold my head so lightly anymore and I am trying my best to recover. Even as I’m in remission and am cancer free.
you beat cancer bro, you got this!
Amazing.. sorry you went through that but you survived cancer that’s all that matters.
Don't try any psychedelics my man
@@eric2577 After that, I’d rather saw my arm off with a serrated kitchen knife then do any form of psychedelics. Because I’ve gotten a lovely example of why the bliss of hallucinations is a very bad thing. Because my loved ones and so many innocent doctors and nurses had to suffer. And i am forever grateful for them putting up with me. One day I’ll donate money to the hospital.
@@eric2577 psychedelics causes brain cancer?
My mother has schizophrenia. When I was a teenager she once tried to attack me with a stick for speaking too long on the phone and giving evil spirits control of me. Another time she was sure the neighbour was trying to kill her. Usually she just thinks they are conspiring against her... She's very stable on meds now, and thankfully was never strong enough to be an actual threat but I still get the chills. It was like there was nobody home. She also doesn't remember these episodes later.
Blessings and prayers to you both. Depth of your insights is greatly inspiring, so hang in there cuz your lovely mother needs n loves you ❤
That clearly shows you that they were demons why someone with not stable mental health always thinking about bad stuff or forgetting memories it’s always Bad and evil stuffs…but there’s two sides in this world bad and good
Good specifically goes withGOD
BAD -Evil
My mother is the same, tho hers was attempting to cling film wrap the entire house too keep invisible bugs out the house or they'd kill us lol
That’s so heartbreaking, but I’m glad she is stable now.
I have bipolar disorder (possibly schizoaffective but I never went back to the psychiatrist and actually don’t want it to be true)but I am on antipsychotic meds. But pre-meds…I’m not sure how I and the people around me remained unharmed.
I have had several “bipolar blackouts” in my lifetime and I never remember them in detail. And if I do remember, it’s almost like I’m hearing or seeing a story that someone else is telling.
I do believe some of these people are evil, though. And the mental illness makes it easier for them to bring it out.
My mom set my hair on fire when I was five in a series of attempts to take my life. Because voices said of she didn't do it herself that my soul would be dammed to hell. Bless her for getting help, unfortunately that's not always the case. I hope she knows how strong she is ❤
I have held jobs at both a psychiatric hospital and at an ER. People can know what they are doing is wrong and yet not be of sound mind. It’s the voices, the hallucinations, the feelings of persecution, the absolute inability to stop what they are doing that begs for you to look deeper. Don’t get me wrong. The true victims are those that are taken advantage of, hurt or killed. But it is hard not to have some form of empathy for the mentally ill. Well, at least it is for me.
I think this is a great thing to mention because the law doesn't recognize it that way. If you know right from wrong then many times you can't be considered crazy. I don't get it.
That's the first video on that channel that I some empathy for the killer. He's what they call "legaly insane" I think. He genuinely believe it has to be done for some reasons, likely hallucinations.
@@tiffanyvanlengen4393Yeah, the only way when à "crazy" or insane défense is recognised, is when people don't know the right from wrong. Would it be hallucinations or psychosis.
Yea this reminds me of that lawyer who was just a normal person and then all of a sudden she had i believe was a schizophrenic episode and ran someone over and threatened to kill the cop in the interrogation room.
That kind of stuff scares the hell outta me. Its not easy getting a law degree and passing the bar. She was intelligent and just a normal person and her head just changed one day.
Im pretty sure the video im talking about is on this channel and yall might know what im referring to.
I completely agree. and its not just visual hallucinations its also tactile that means they FEEL hallucinations so they can literally feel like a devil is stabbing them and they cant stop for example most ppl dont get it i studied psychology for 20 years
It’s almost refreshing to see someone who is actually crazy instead of pretending. It reminds me that not everyone is a liar, which I sometimes think is the case.
Notice you don’t see any of the usual “mental health is no excuse” bullshit in the comments. Interesting.
Ur not wrong. 95% is liars.
It's sad really, I feel for the guy, actual nutcase
The judge on Friday initially issued a 51-year sentence but suspended six years, citing Magill’s mental health. Magill originally pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity, but a psychiatrist for the prosecution testified he was sane.
Things have gotten so bad that It's actually really nice & refreshing to see some actual crazy people 😂
I cannot imagine being the guy that gave Andrew a ride, only to later find out what he had just done only a few minutes before. And he even said to the dispatcher that he didn't think he was dangerous at the time! I wouldn't blame him if he never stops to help anyone ever again!
I'm a volunteer EMT and was once on a call to a man driving through the area and was mentally altered. An officer was on scene, and while we were there the guy showed the officer he had a gun in the car. We transported the guy and he was released later that day after getting some meds he needed. Two days later he got in a shoot-out with cops in a different town and died. That was pretty disturbing
When I was a student I worked in a pub. An old guy came in twice a week. He had smiley eyes, always tipped and I thought he was a lovely old man. Then he was on the front page of the local paper - he’d been stopped in his car, which transpired to have his murdered girlfriend in his car boot for six weeks!
Scared the crap out of me! I mean, I enjoyed seeing him. He seemed lovely. Talk about missing the truth of the man.
No imagine being the first guy that gave him a ride and then dropped him before he went to kill the lady. If the guy had drove him to a police station this wouldn’t have happened. He didn’t even have to tell him he was driving him.
That's why you don't give strangers rides...
I know this is off topic..
But girl you are gorgeous! 🫶😍
(Respectfully saying)
It's amazing how they just knew something is really weird and one of them was nearly freaking out even before they found anything.
How your brain picks up cues you don't and tells you "this is a bad idea"
i love that this channel always respects mental illnesses without downplaying the crime in question. my favorite crime story channel
sorta off topic but it was actually nice to hear the officers worried, because ive seen so many times in cases where the cops just leave if they see nothing inherently wrong. it was nice to hear them actually care
Right?? I was surprised! Good for them.
This kind of shit is why they’re always so trigger happy and jumpy. You never know what you’ll encounter out in the field.
worried?? all they coild talk about fuckers gonna get it swearing every second sentence typical of a egomaniac...naive muppet, they were on a powertrip.
It helps when you're in a real life horror movie, with the scariest "set" ever. Some spooky, abandoned property with no signs of life and a really heavy sense of dread.
Not off topic at all.
One of the scariest and saddest things to see is someone losing control of their mind. It's hard for people to fathom but when someone goes through this it is all completely real to them, as real as real can get.
See it every day when I lived and worked in Redding, Ca
@@BEASTmodeontheRoad 🧢
Loosing ????😅
@@monikabachmann4002 sure. This guy has certainly let go of his sanity.
@@AlmightyGatsby take a walk in San Francisco. I see people acting like he was in the very beginning of the video. Everytime I go out there. It’s sad. And more common than you’d think. I see it a lot in California.
It is so heartbreaking that he called his Mum asking for help before any of this happened. Everyone should be educated about mental health, and early intervention services should have funding pouring in, especially at such a dark and tumultuous point in human history.
why do so many americans have mental health issues?
I may get dragged over the coals for this but i feel SO bad for Andrew was well as the poor woman he murdered. I can't imagine the hell he's experiencing in his head. He truly thinks he had to do what he did. It's so scary. The fact that the psychiatrist found him sane is nuts to me
I was diagnosed with early onset skitzophrenia as a child and I'm 52, so this had literally been my worst nightmare my whole life!(That I would hurt someone while in a delusional state and "wake up" to this!) I definitely feel bad for everyone involved....there are no intentional villians in this story!
No one should drag you over anything for having empathy. I felt the same way. He was a mess and his drug induced mind had driven him crazy! I feel so bad for the officer and the Mary Ann’s family! So sad all the way around. Love and prayers to The victims and thier families❤
If my understanding is correct-the suspect only has to be deemed they were mentally competent at the time the crime was committed to be charged. Sentencing seems to be influenced by their current mental state though.
You can have empathy for a person who is clearly not well, and also recognize that their actions taken against an innocent woman were horrifying. Mary Ann didn't deserve to be murdered. It is possible to hold empathy for a person while also understanding and acknowledging that what they did was wrong. Feeling bad for one does not negate that you feel bad for the other.
Nah. I think you should be okay. Any sensible person can see that Andrew is clearly not in his right mind. What happened definitely warrants him being sentenced and imprisoned, but in a psychiatric facility, not a correctional facility. The man is sick and dangerous as a result of his condition. He needs confinement in a facility suited to treat him, not a cage.
That one deputy that is saying "man this is some sketchy shit" and "person down person down f*king axe, f*k this man" he sounds like exactly what would be going through my head if I was the first officer on scene.
Funny we can't comment cuss words but they have it in videos

I was watching one of your previous videos and noticed someone in the comments asked if you guys could put subtitles in your videos because its sometimes hard to hear what people are saying. I also noticed that you guys included them in this video. Its appreciated that you are taking the time to listen to the feedback and improve your videos. Doing a great job, thanks guys
Put closed captions on. I have to do that as well for everything I watch
@@shonamagouyrk9575 I use CC too and I’d bet that you know just as well as I do how bad those can be sometimes so that just makes it all the more impactful that they actually took the feedback and applied it by adding captions in some parts. I had CC on for this video and I appreciated when the CC lined up with the text on screen - solely to verify that the CC was correct. I wasn’t aware they didn’t really do this prior so it was nice to hear they began doing so after someone brought it to their attention.
Wait, haven't they always included subtitles in their videos?
@@qwq843 yes lol
@@shonamagouyrk9575 right lol
This turns my stomach to see. My sister was showing almost identical behavior at the beginning of her run with meth induced psychosis. All that remains, over three years and many meds later, is an empty shell of who she used to be with mild hallucinations/delusions. It’s very haunting. Thankfully, she hasn’t physically hurt anybody yet. I can’t imagine what his family was going through at this point.
It blows my mind that people are still trying meth. It's insanity.
A forensic psychologist charged the state of New Mexico $100,000 to evaluate the suspect. I'd say that makes 2 criminals in this case.
Textbook psychosis. I had psychosis as well, I believed a pack of wolves was hunting me down because I was destined to save the world from unspeakable evil. I hid from the wolves at work and my boss was like "What's going on, why are you scared?" and I broke down and told him about the wolves that I saw and that same day I was brought into a mental hospital via ambulance and I am so grateful for that because I got treatment, my delusions disappeared and I learned to spot the signs of a psychotic episode and haven't had one since, whenever I see the beginning signs of it (paranoia for me mostly) I talk to my psychiatrist and we adjust treatment. Mental health help is so so so important! I feel so sorry for Marianne who just wanted to help the poor guy.
I'm happy your boss was so understanding
Psychosis doesn't work like that
Did you get fired?
We are the wolves. We are watching you everywhere. Be Afraid.
@@garymitchell5899 It literally does tho. I was diagnosed.
As a clinician I'm appalled the psychiatrist found him "sane".
Same. I have known about a case in Florida where the woman killed her husband, was declared insane and was locked up. Spent years back and forth begging for them to take her off meds because she wasn't insane anymore. And eventually was able to prove she was sane and the judge let her out. Probably because she was not bad looking and her they were millionaires. Point being, he is clearly insane and it was not him, and society doesn't have the capacity to understand what happens if someone is not in control of their own mind if they really are responsible for their own actions. Then the question of free will would be gone. So he had to get locked away and we can all pretend that's it.
As soon as I heard $100.000 I knew some shenanigans are coming.
no shortage of mental health "experts" in the us that cant tell their ass from their mouth
You that surprised ?😂 it’s America they give out these PhDs to anyone
Right! Unbelievable! And for $100,00.00! Tax money was wasted on a horrible diagnosis.
So, they had zero evidence of psychosis-inducing drugs in his system, but still ruled it a drug-induced psychosis and called it a day. That's some fucking top notch police work right there.
They literally said he was using meth, drug induced psychosis can be caused from long term drug use not just when you use drugs you are in psychosis💀
So actual studies have been done that show meth usage can lead to recurring psychosis. He may actually not be lying about not using meth recently, but if he has a history of using it, then it can take a while before he no longer has those kinds of episodes (studies show 17% of prolonged meth users still had psychiatric symptoms after 3 months sobriety)
@@epod85my brother was a heavy meth user for years and he still has drug induced psychosis episodes 3 years after last meth usage.
Honestly, he scares me sometimes.
Crickets ... Feel dumb now?
@SylviaAbarca-sg6er The OP doesn't care because he got a bunch of up votes validating the OP's incorrect and feelings fueled conclusion. Unfortunately, most people will align with someone like the OP on these matters because it makes them feel better to believe their delusions.
Thanks! Definitely my #1 Crime Channel.
This is one of those stories where I feel bad for the victim and the killer. He clearly had a psychotic break and was not in control of his faculties, yet he killed someone gruesomely in cold blood. You can't let that go unpunished. Life in a mental institution seems the only reasonable verdict.
sorry, but i disagree. Life in prison but he can stay in the mental wing of the prison and then transferred to the general population if he's mentally stable enough.
I don’t feel bad for him, I’m only assuming but he did mention he does a lot of drugs, could it have been the drugs that caused him psychosis idk but he’s still needs to be pay for his crimes
Im not trying to be a dick, But I wonder if you would still feel sorry for the killer if you was related to the victim? This killer should be sentenced to death and immediately before somebody else suffers.
Nah. He will stay in prison where he belongs.
@@ThatsInsane2 that’s what drug induced psychosis is. What he was said to have when looked over by a psychiatrist
My brother left Vietnam in 1969. He did pure coke. He believed he could forgive your sins. It was so scary. This went on for 3 days until we committed him to the veterans hospital in Muskogee Oklahoma. They kept him 45 days. On the 4th day he was my little brother again. He stayed on China white, herion, he brought it back from Vietnam. He got busted and never did herion again . He overdosed on 2 wafers of methadone. 1951 - 2002. Thomas Mark Plunk. I miss him so bad. Especially at Christmas. He got 14 metals in Vietnam. He was a helicopter gunner rip to my beautiful brother
That's sad, I'm guessing what ever he experienced over there broke him. And there's nothing you can do for someone like that no matter what you try. It's like they are bound and determined to kill themselves because they can't forgive themselves for what they did or didn't do. Even shit that wasn't there fault for something and just like surviving where many they knew died. I hope he rests easy now and was finally able to let it all go.
I pray your brother has peace now. I worked with a Vietnam vet for a few years. He’d be up working on the pole line in a bucket, a chopper or plane would fly over and he’d be yelling, dropping to the floor of the bucket hiding out and then into full battle mode. Sometimes it would end quickly as I was talking to him over the intercom and other times I’d have to just bring the bucket down while this was he was reliving his nightmare. War has broken so many soldiers. Much respect for never giving up on him.
Such a sad story.
There NEEDS to be so much more professional help, after care & research done into helping mental health problems.
I feel so much for u, I genuinely hope yr doing alright?!!
I don't know how I would be in yr situation.
Please take care of yourself 😌
All my love in the world! 💞💞💞
And your loser brother was never held accountable probably ever once in his life, he is probably better off where he is
I worked for V.A. for 30years mental health is no joke
.we made man mistakes. I'm very sorry 😞 prayers for 🥰🙏
At my very worst mental stage I was convinced I knew secrets I wasn't supposed to know and there was a group after me. I'd see them lurking around, always watching, like a warning to keep quiet. At one point I was convinced my mom had been switched out and was one of them. She had to call for help because I refused to let her get near me. I don't really remember much from this year, it's mostly been told back to me and I've read things I wrote down about it. I was 15 at the time and it was so scary.
Yet, even though most of that year is like a dark spot, I can vividly remember seeing them watching me from a distance and constantly being terrified.
I did feel like I had to do bad things to make them satisfied. I never got to the point of acting violent towards others but I was hurting myself badly and spent months in hospital.
I swear to god I believed all of it. I did for years. My head's only been clear for 2,5 years
Was it schizophrenia? I'm glad you're doing well.
@@KMarr07 I honestly don’t know. I still have diagnosed delusional syndrome, but over the years the doctors have removed and added diagnoses so many times that I have no idea what is there anymore. I still see and hear things no one else does, but I can block it off into a separate headspace. Most people would say it isn’t real, the things I experience, but I really can’t deny them 😅 It’s quite complicated
@@siennakahlgren Thank you for responding. I'm surprised it's not schizophrenia but I guess who knows. I'm glad you are aware of this and have help, and mostly to agreeing to the help, my brother never did.😞
@@KMarr07 I might still have it. Health care in my country, especially mental health care, is really really bad. It took me years of forced therapy to get to where I am. I was 15 when I started showing symptoms, and I didn’t have a choice in the matter since I was a minor. I hope your brother gets to a point where he realised how much proper help does for you.
@@siennakahlgren Yes good mental health care is hard to get. Well good, keep working on yourself. My brother was found OD'd in his van, it's to late for him now. They would pick him up on the streets and hold him for 24 hours and then just let him go again. We tried Nomi and everything, like you said, it's hard to get help.
Wow, this ENTIRE situation was just horrific for everyone involved, even Andrew. Yes, I said even Andrew. He had a wife and a daughter, was taking college classes and seemed to be a normal guy. Now that Andrew is in his right mind, he just lost EVERYTHING. I 100% feel HORRIBLE for the innocent woman who was so brutally murdered and her family along with the young deputy who was shot in his arm for just doing his job and can no longer work in that field b/c of his injury. I honestly can’t believe Andrew wasn’t found to be insane at the time of his horrific acts. I think there were too many people who wanted to see Andrew punished for the death of an elderly woman and the harm of a fellow Brother in Blue… otherwise he would have ABSOLUTELY been found INSANE and would be getting the help he really needs.
Robyn, love your monogram. !! 😊
He was cognizant at the time which means he knew right from wrong. He even admitted it in the interview. There was no insanity defence. It's a legal term not a mental health term. But i agree with you. I think he should have got treatment not jail.
This entire situation is incredibly sad. It's so terribly sad that someone without cruel intention in their heart can do something so horrific when versed with a severe mental disorder.
Dude said he had to kill something to stop the devil. At least he can't smoke k2 in prison
His drug of CHOICE was METH
He is not a victim!!!
Yup. Reminds me of the young mom who saw her baby morph into a demon, so _to save her baby_ she decapitated her baby and ate part of his little body 😔 Her family members found the scene the next day, the 911 call is awful. But she really didn’t know.
He was spun out. Meth psychosis and demonic possession are synonymous
Oh but for the price of 100,000$, we now know he was under a drug induced psychosis even tho he wasn’t on any drugs. Not mentally unstable. Just playing crazy. SMFH
That guy who gave Andrew a lift is so lucky. His good deed put him next to an axe murderer and yet probably saved him at the same time since he didn't seem confrontational and Andrew probably didn't feel threatened by him.
Fully agree. NEVER stop for someone on the highway who is walking the middle of the road, looking and acting crazy. They might actually need help, but they also could be a guy like Andrew or worse. Thats why call the cops IMMEDIATELY and don't stop by yourself.
He literally picked up an axe murderer. Too clichè ?
Omg I said the exact same thing and I saw your comment 💯 agree. If only he knew. I'm all about trying to help people but not at the expense of my life. Encountering an individual who is clearly unhinged is very risky, especially when they are displaying disturbing behaviour. It's better to get them help from a distance (i.e., call emergency services, etc).
You could say for a moment he was a ....... sitting....duck....
I was thinking the same thing. I half expected the officer to tell him, "hey it's not a good idea to pick up strangers at night because this guy just murdered someone."
My great aunt has schizophrenia and when not properly managed it is truly terrifying. My mom had a scary encounter with her when she arrived to our house unprompted (which was very unlike her) to ask my dad to sign hockey cards so she could give them to her students as she used to be a kindergarten teacher. She did not have that job anymore. When my mom told her that she snapped and I remember her saying she feared for my life as she kept pointing to me and saying that the government would come take me away and that the world was evil. Scary stuff. I still see her from time to time, she’s on her meds and she’s truly such a sweet soul which makes it even sadder tbh. She lost contact with her husband and contact with one of her two kids due to trauma she inflicted on them. There’s no excuse for what this man did, and usually schizophrenic people aren’t aggressive to others (it’s a common misconception but if anything the harm they direct is mostly towards themselves) but in cases where the mental illness is paired with a tendency of aggression it can prove to be tragic. We need better mental health care, some people are beyond fixing and need to be locked up.
I have mental illness since I was a little kid and I'm being treated since I was 11. Although I struggle a lot still, I'm really thankful that I am being treated well enough so I don't end up this way. I stay away from drugs. Only medication, lately cigarettes (but I'm working my way out too) and every other month I have some beer. Never get drunk really cause I'm scared of could happen if I do get drunk. It's just... It's a struggle in many ways but I'm here to say I've never hurted anyone else besides myself and even that hasn't happened in over a year.
Mental illness are generally chronic and takes a long time to work through.
Just the other day I had an episode where we all thought it was a seizure but it was actually anxiety and stress. I hadn't slept in over 36h and hadn't been eating properly. When our mind is unstable, we need to balance everything else very carefully. So... Eat healthy, exercise, take meds, do therapy and SLEEP WELL. It makes a huge difference to everybody's life.
I had a nervous breakdown after my mom died in front of me. That out of control sorrow and desperation was terrifying. I was sitting on my bed ready to off myself. I was hearing things and I had no one. The only thing that saved me was I sent an incoherent message to my younger sister and then she took me to the hospital. I had been under so much stress that I just snapped. My mind couldn't handle anymore. I was rambling and not making any sense. I was rocking myself back and forth while being admitted to the hospital. I probably looked like I was withdrawing but my mind just snapped.The human mind is a terrifying thing. Now that I know what I'm capable of falling into watching these almost makes me want to avoid it at all costs again.
Take care of yourself. Glad you feel better. Deep breathe and psychedelic mushrooms even very low dose can be helpful if used for healing purposes...Long water fasts are amazing for the mental health / overall health too...Look into kefir. Take care of your vagus nerve / posture. If in doubt there are so many people who care and are also suffering!
RIP to your mother, this is absolutely a terrifying situation and you did not deserve that heartache. I hope you’re healing well, and that your days get a little easier as time goes on. Your story will help others ❤️

My oldest brother suffered with paranoid schizophrenia and exhibited much of the same behavior as Andrew. Thank God it never resulted in a homicide. When I was young I was very angry with him; then one day I realized that the things he experienced were literally his reality. It was so sad and he lived a very troubled life.
oh yes, thank your amazing God you 🐑🐑
That must’ve been hard on you too.❤
Most of the time it won't result in homicide, it's actually very rare people with these kinds of mental illnesses to kill people, they just tend to get more attention when they do because it makes for a sensational story.
@@moeruss2726 who killed your mother and grandmother? What?
Is your brother still with us?
$100,000 for the psychiatrist??? That sounds criminal!
I've gone through DT's and that "I haven't had a drink in 5 days" really makes me think he was going through severe DT's. They can be horrifying, it's almost like having a nightmare but you are awake and everything that you see or hear is very real to the person experiencing them. The first time I tried to quit cold turkey I thought my roommate was a demon that was going to take me to hell and we fought for 15 minutes before the cops got there.
I think it's a lot more than that. I'm also a recovering addict but this is very different.
When he said he hadn't had a drink in 5 days, and he was eating worms. I think he meant like water. At the beginning he was asking for water. He said he was lost. I think his case is severe mental illness
I am genuinely confused how any professional psychologist or psychiatrist ever found this man competent during his crimes .
Because we live in a world in which cases like this are considered cold-blooded murder; but some random mafia boss with a personal deathcount of 100+ people can go out on parole, bail or as an informant.
Yes, that result is shocking and another terribly sad part of this whole very sad story. He's clearly unwell and suffering from psychosis.
even if he was not competent, he still needed to be punished for it
@@STCatchMeTRACjRo why should he be punished?
@@reinier5355 still a crime, regardless if he was competent or not
This is why we need better and more available drug treatment programs and mental health institutions! I worked in mental health for 25 years. We started to see more and more drug induced psychosis! We were only allowed to keep them long enough to " dry them out" then had to release them and refer them to out patient services which is a joke! There isn't much supervision on their status! There needs to be a better way!
The problem with that is drug addicts don’t quit doing drugs until they’re done doing drugs. They really need to get out there and suffer.
@@bigbaderek1978 True! I have seen that! It's sad that the drug crisis is so out of control! Not everyone wants to stop using drugs and have to hit a true rock bottom! Don't get me wrong, I'm not sticking up for or condoning what this guy did! It is never ok to kill someone! It is a sad world!
@@MsRobinL I’m afraid that problem will never go away so long as there is still reason to believe the US gov is profiting and participating in the drug trade even within the US. Look up “The boys on the tracks” to see what I mean. Wendigoon did a fantastic synopsis of the whole situation. Sadly our government would seem to suggest they legitimately care the most for their own interest even before the very lives of their own people based on what that story has to say. The rate of addicts and drug incited incidents within the US are, at least in some part, just byproducts of such a sick system.
@@bigbaderek1978 I don't believe that.
I think they need a decent taste of the 'good' life.
Keep in mind that the #1 gateway to drugs = childhood trauma (abuse)
When that man who gave him a ride heard about this, I bet his idea on picking up strangers has changed!!!!
I never see police officers understanding mental illness and being patience and not treating them like they’re crazy even when they are. Huge props
I have bipolar 1 and schizoaffective disorder. When I was 18,19, and 20 I was living on my own and working full time as a delivery driver. I had no diagnosis at the time nor was I getting any professional help. I don’t really remember what I would do daily, but I do know I was hallucinating often, with bursts of extreme fear and anxiety where I could either become paralyzed or extremely physically violent. I ended up being hospitalized and getting help after an encounter with law enforcement that I wont get into publicly. Long story short. Those officers saved my life and very likely the lives of others. They helped me get the help I didn’t know I needed. I think stigma and perception are the major reasons people with mental health issues don’t get help.
In addition, its a shame it usually takes extreme circumstances for people to get help. I don’t hate my parents or teachers, but there was definitely something wrong with me as a child that they had to have known.. ASD was a likely possibility, but I guess I just didn’t “look autistic”.
U must be lots of fun
Society is waaaay to judgmental about mental illness and criminals. Probably most people in jail or prison have mental health issues but few get much treatment. Your lucky you had good cops that helped you. Of course if your a good looking woman your more likely to be helped than hurt. On an ugly man, cops often use excessive force and they get little help or sympathy in jail or prison.
@@caylieann1994 I have Bipolar II and schizoaffective disorder so I completely understand. My doctors thought I would live to see 30 and I just turned 57. I am completely open about my diagnoses, that include TBI (from over 22 ECTs that wiped out five years of my life and left me rebuilding my still suicidal brain from scratch) and PTSD.
It's obvious we're a bit quirky! I want people to know we're not the stereotypes they fear, but their friends, neighbours, co-workers, etc. I don't going around announcing I take meds for a life threatening illness, but if it comes up in an appropriate place and time, I'm open to talking about it.
Best wishes on the journey, sweetie.

I have a 33 yo son that acts like this quite frequently. He did have an episode where he took a knife and stabbed his wife’s hand. He “woke up” in the middle of it and stopped and took her to a neighbor and called 911. This started a cascade of horrible events and him getting locked up. He is out now and has descended into Meth hell. He can talk to you and suddenly start threatening you. I am afraid of him. He is a
Veteran of the Army, he was a successful medic in Afghanistan. I think he got hooked on heroin there. I am so sad. I am in hiding from him, because he has threatened me several times. I wish I knew what to do. The VA know him by sight as a frequent flyer. He stays a while and then they let him go. It’s so sad.
Regina, find out about your local involuntary commitment laws and ready yourself. With the seriously mentally ill, it's no use lamenting that they have changed. You can either have them in your life and take responsibility for supporting them and getting them help, or remove them from your life to a safe distance. No other ways about it.
i hope you’re doing well from a 17 year old from australia 💙💙
I’m so sorry to hear that ma’am. That’s really tough and a terrible spot to be in. I hope you, your son, his family, and your family get the support and help that y’all need. Is there anything the VA or any local authorities or organizations can do to help? I’d look into that. Much love to you from Texas. 💛
There are many things that could help but medical "professionals" today aren't actually educated that well about psychoactive substances. The best place to get advice about problems with drug use is online forums for drug users. There are subreddits on Reddit with users generally more educated than most pharmacists.
For instance if you're really mentally messed up from drug use there are numerous supplements you could try to help repair your damaged brain, such as Lion's Mane Mushroom or Semax which is used in Russia to treat mental decline from alcoholism to great effect but weirdly is unheard of anywhere else.
Get him to rehab or preferably hospital, there’s a lot of drugs proven to simultaneously improve both aggression and physchosis aswell as drugs that can reduce the severity of withdrawal symptoms.
Shout out to everyone commenting about their experiences with psychosis. It can be extremely alienating, & it’s so comforting to see it discussed openly. Love to all.
Drug induced psychosis from marijuana? Yeah right I don't buy that there is spirits and ghosts and things and they been captured on camera. Even the navy et Al. Been capturing UFOs which I'm certain are actually spirits and not actual fleshly aliens. Remember the movie predator? It could turn invisible

I spent a couple years working at night as a jail CO while I went to college. It's so incredibly obvious when someone is detached from reality, this guy is the real deal. It's almost impossible to fake, especially when you're around them for extended amounts of time. Andrew is absolutely insane. Wouldn't surprise me if this is long term effects of meth.
Or his drug addiction can be the result of living with mental health issues. Often suffering from those issues leads to the use of anything that will knock them out or stop their brain from thinking.
That last sentence is so unnecessary. He's obviously mentally ill and obviously uses drugs to cope
@@joborn1204 touché
My own mother is a meth addict, and all of her friends are as well. All of the people with schizophrenia that she's had around me growing up, were already suffering mentally, and then abused drugs to try and gain control again. I am doubtful meth really causes schizophrenia. I feel it really enhances mental illnesses, and people let themselves go entirely.
@@MacLeodddd probably doesnt cause it (brain damage aside) but drugs can absolutely trigger latent schizophrenia in people who already have it and dont know or who are genetically predisposed which is arguably scarier. it's can be a completely random dice roll for some people, like, smoke a blunt and whoops now you have an extreme mental illness for the rest of your life.
His lack of remorse is because he believes he did what needed to be done. He said himself close to the end of the interview that he knew what he did was wrong, but felt like he had accomplished something. I feel sympathy for everyone in this story. What a crazy situation!
In psychotic breaks there can be v short moments when they seem realise they're hallucinating/hearing voices , but it's very fleeting. I'm speaking from having a close friend with mental health issues. Also, when on meds, recovering, there are fleeting moments when they suddenly say something odd that's obviously a delusion, when they've seemed back to normal for days. It takes 3 weeks for the med's to fully kick in .
Dont, he takes meth by his choice, might had genetic predisposal, but still, he became killer due to his tree of decisions
He probably needed some time for the drug to exit his system
@Bull Ainsworth Andrew is a real case study. Along with the drugs, there may be something growing in his brain that's not supposed to be there!!
Its cuz the meth warped his mind
I want to hear what the wife has to say. Did she know he was like this at all? Did he start to show signs?
The sad part about these videos is not only the death of the victims, but also the lot of the suspects suffering from serious mental illness. I know not everyone with mental illness murders someone, but everybody is different, everybody is somewhere different on the spectrum for different disorders. Yes, crimes deserve punishment, but also people- human beings deserve compassion. We need to prioritize health, mental health included. We need rehabilitation
The responding officers instincts were spot on. It's incredible how humans can pick up on vibes like that
Kinda, i mean they were responding to a 911 call where the lady was distressed .. so turning up finding noone is obviously guna cause a 'vibe'... it aint anything more than how you would react in the same sitch. Theres a small percentage of people where there is a disconnect between the brains ability to sense danger... obviously this is not a great trait to have going back in time where dangers were more common. Hence its rarity
@@mondop5270 not that simple, often the person could've just moved somewhere else safer for them.
It's the combination of weird things like vehicles present yet place is empty, TV is left on, plates with food on them, door unlocked.
With experience your mind picks up on the many subtle cues without you necessarily consciously being aware of it. As a cop he probably seen some shit, brain can combine the clues and be vaguely aware something is severely wrong before finding it.
It's the whole "trust your gut", for experienced people your gut might just be instincts through experience
Funny thing is, the pattern recognition behind that may also be why the psychotic guy was experiencing what he was experiencing.
I've had my instincts kick in like this, here's a little personal experience I've had, I'll try to make a long story short (essay time lol.) It was around midnight at my old apartment, listening to my headphones blasting music on full volume as I do frequently, ruining my eardrums lol. Out of literally nowhere I felt an overwhelming feeling of dread and immediately stopped the music, something was off, like I just knew it, I was pretty drunk at the time too. I cannot emphasize how much I was not able to hear anything with the music playing; I heard no crashes or bangs, it was just sudden dread down my spine and adrenaline kicked in despite no real reasoning at the time, I was SCARED. I go to my living room, a man was trying to break inside through the kitchen window. His arms were already inside and he was trying to hoist himself in. I screamed at him to leave and get out, he bolted just like that, I dial 911, cops came and then left eventually after some long ass questioning. I lost track of time but once things calmed down and were over the sun was coming up. I couldn't sleep for the next two days, it was such a rush. I thankfully moved soon after since my lease was ending anyways. I've always been one to trust my gut, I'll take that experience as a testament to my instincts, pretty proud of myself.

I dated a girl who used to think people were watching her all the time. We lived together for a while but she started getting strange. She started covering the window with newspaper and insisted that there were listening devices in our apartment. I couldn't take it anymore and left. Next thing I knew her parents called me because they were scared I'd hurt her. I explained what was going on and they understood. She stalked me for about two years after that. People don't believe me when I talk about it.
She was on meth bro
@@tysontickner3655 no. She wasn't on drugs but she definitely needed to be put on something.
Friggin 'murica'... All kinds of strange people infected by strange ideas round here. Then there's the gaslighting. That's fun stuff, being told you're crazy cuz you're on to the bullshit. Gotta love that. One of my family's favorite techniques. I recall an incident of receiving a "smell complaint"... Property management called my phone to remind me that there was no smoking allowed. Just to see what would happen, I replied, "I don't know what you're talking about, I don't smoke"... The response was beyond incredible.
"I'm on the phone with someone who's looking in your window and they can see you with a lit cigarette"
They called me "The crazy guy in apartment 3" from that day forward.
Needless to say, I moved out in haste.
That's called schizophrenia.

Terribly sad for all involved including the suspect.
I hope all parties can be supported through this.
Jesus. What are the odds-. Living that far out and that one sick person still happens to find you. It’s terrifying
I've had drug induced psychosis before - it isabsolutely terrifying. I felt like someone was following me, that people were hiding in my bedroom and that my house had been bugged. I ended up wandering the streets and spent hours hiding behind a dumpster. Scary as hell.
Yeah, I accidentally puddled myself with LSD and I thought mantis aliens were trying to r-a-p-e and abduct me. Every person I saw was connected to/ working with the aliens. I ended up in the woods covered in mud and shit. Those damn mantises kept peeking at me from behind trees and they were talking to me the ENTIRE TIME through telepathy.
I’ve never been so deluded in my life but somehow it rewired my brain. I was in the midst of heroin addiction for a few years before this happened and when I snapped out of it I wasn’t physically addicted to heroin anymore. I had no withdrawals. Nothing.
Never used again after that ordeal.
Did anyone ask Phillip if he laced the joint with something?
what drug was it if you don’t mind me asking?
Good luck explaining your actions once its a drug induced psychosis. You are responsible, because they will say you took the risk taking the drug!
Ya meth is insane. Being up for weeks will make u insane
The deputy’s concern was exactly how anybody else WITH empathy would feel. I’m glad he didn’t give up looking for her until he found her. RIP
@Brentdanium she's talking about the cop, not the suspect.
She's saying some cops and some people show lack of empathy by giving up quickly, but he was worried and tirelessly searched for the woman until he found her.
Schizophrenia doesn't cause lack of empathy, but sadly many people lack it without even a mental illness
This is absolutely terrifying. It can happen to anyone of us...either going psychotic or being attacked by someone having a psychotic episode. What a sad case. 🤔 Stay safe.
This is absolutely my favorite channel. Wow Mental health is definitely real.
Poor woman :( I feel so bad for her, and her friend and family. She must have been so scared. Rest in peace, my dear.
Well she was unconscious when she got her head cut off so
I've experienced something like this. No harming of people but I was under a huuuuuge amount of stress in my life. I'm talking like I felt like my life was going in a hundred different directions. It was terrifying. I was hearing auditory hallucinations. I was so scared. My body would start shaking out of control. Mental health is no joke and I could have took a lie detector test and would have passed that's how real the situation was. I can't begin to tell u how scary it was. I finally got help. The whole experience opened my eyes completely. Now I have a completely different outlook in life. Stress is also no joke. If u know someone that is under a huge amount of stress please check on them cause that could be the time they snap. The brain is a very interesting thing to say the least.
If you are mentally fragile enough that you "snap", you should be locked away from the general public.
Are you willing to share what kind of stress you had to endure? Was it work related?
i wish more people were understanding of this matter. i agree with you fully. i can relate
Thank you Joey.

Hey, I love your content! Just had a quick question, how do you get access to these video recordings, like police bodycam, interrogation rooms, 911 calls etc? I mean do you work in law enforcement or are these available for public viewing?
This scares me beyond anything I can imagine. My son is nothing like this but we’ve been dealing with some issues in the past. He’s only 17, on meds now and seems completely normal now. He has had a lot of trauma and the doctors we’ve talked with and psychiatrist seem to think his psychosis came from depression cause he was so deep into it. I just fear what his future will be. We talk constantly about if he is seeing something he needs to come to me n not just ignore or react rationally. We have a good plan n he’s doing great now but as a mom I’m still worried about the future of course. I feel bad for this lady and her family but I feel bad that this man’s mind is what it is.
truly horrifying.. 100 000 $ for a mental evaluation of a single person?! What the hell is wrong with them. THIS should be a criminal case as well.
Right?! THAT is insane! $100,000 to misdiagnose the guy. They aren't even good at their job or that's the outcome someone on the inside wanted. It is obvious from this man's confession and ramblings that he has mental health issues, most likely paranoid schizophrenia, and started taking drugs to self-medicate. That just made it worse. He had a complete breakdown. The reason he isn't being more empathetic for what he did to the lady is that he thinks she was possessed and that some higher power told him it was the right thing to do in order to "save the world." He feels bad that she had to die, but not that he killed her, because God told him it was the only way, and he was scared, as well. He even said that she was acting weird and possessed. I feel bad for everyone involved in this awful case. Now, having said all of that, where is my $100,000? Ridiculous! 😡

My best friend has episodes like this sometimes. He was on meds but they weren't completely helping him so he still had minor episodes here and there. But the last time he did have one, he called the police on himself because he thought there was a gang outside his house trying to rob him. And when the police got there he refused to put down a small hatchet because he was so scared... Thankfully one of the officers understood that this was a mental episode and not just someone refusing to cooperate so they were able to help him. He even called me from the hospital asking me why I told the leader of the gang where he lived???...Ummm what?!? He truly was in his own world and it broke my heart hearing him like that. Thankfully they now have him on the correct medication and he hasn't had any episodes since.
Be careful.
Sometimes the best thing you can do, for all parties involved in the situation, is to simply walk away before they cause you harm.
I had a friend who had similar episodes for awhile. It ended about a month and a half ago when he essentially blamed me for every problem he has. I’ve known him since 1st grade, 22 years didn’t mean anything to him after his new girlfriend began feeding lies into his ear. He derailed and I walked away because that was simply the only option left.
I would stay away from him,,wow that's scary,,be careful he could kill you one day
Are you still friends with him?
@@jackf1830 story time?
I like how people's comments are quite sympathetic. It's a damn shame things like this happen. Bless yall.
I had a neighbour who was a paranoid schizophrenic, and I suspected he was also self-medicating.
I had three separate incidents with him where he was mainly accusing me of video recording him and distributing images of him on the internet. My children witnessed each incident...thankfully we moved from there two years ago and haven't encountered him since. But it's very scary to think the possible outcome of each situation (of course I reported to police but nothing came of it). They're very unpredictable and this man seems to be experiencing more or less similar characteristics. I hope he gets the help he needs, he's clearly aware that what he did was wrong.
My sincere condolences to the lady's family, wishing them healing and strength 🙏🏿
I had a panic attack in the hospital one time and they gave me a sedative called Haldol, and instead of calming me down it made me violently hallucinate and become agitated and I would sleep for a short time and wake up agitated and confused and hallucinating so they’d give it to me again to calm me down. That cycle lasted a couple of days, part of me thinks the sedatives they were giving him we’re having the same effect on him and not calming him down as intended. I spoke to some nurses about my experience afterwards and they said you shouldn’t have those types of intense side effects from that type of medication and now it’s listed as an allergy on my armband when I go to the hospital lol
Quite a rare side effect, paradoxical agitation can however happen more often in children and the mentally Ill
why the fuck did they keep giving it to you?! that sounds horrible
Anyone who prescribes or takes Haldol knows it can cause serious side effects such as sudden mood changes, agitation and hallucinations. Makes no sense why the nurses told you you shouldn't have had those intense side effects from that medication.
I was given benzo's at age 12 or 13 after days of panic attacks and I thought THAT was irresponsible, but this? Damn, sounds horrible..
Yeah, literally thought I had snakes wrapping around my neck and arms but it was really just a hospital gown and an armband lol. Was absolutely terrifying I’ve never hallucinated that vividly in my life. Legitimately thought I was in hell.
My partner has bipolar disorder with psychotic features, and a year or so before we started dating when we were just friends, he had an episode that looked exactly like this (obv he didnt kill anyone, he just became convinced that he had been jumped by 8 guys without faces and that he had blood all over him from it). He called me, sobbing and I immediately called an ambulance.
I think it was probably the scariest moment of both of our lives.
What Andrew did was unspeakably horrible, but he clearly wasn't mentally okay at ALL.

Absolutely NOT making excuses for what he did but when he said "I called my mom and said mom something is wrong with me, I need help" I felt like my heart broke for him.

Half of my life has been spent surrounded by screaming about mafias, cults, gang-stalkers, etc. When my parents divorced, she was able to go further off her meds than ever before. Two days after I begged nurses to hold her in the psych ward, she stabbed our dog to death and tried to kill herself. She's medicated now, but still believes a lot of the delusions.

I was homeless for about two years, lucky me for not ever dipping into heavy drugs BUT I was close friends with someone who did. He was having a manic episode because of it, threatening to harm others, etc. We managed to convince him to call his father and on speaker phone we all heard his father calm my friend down and he immediately accepted my friends request to move back in with his father and get the help he so obviously needs. As far as I know, he got the help and is doing so much better.

This is almost identical to how my little brother acts, diagnosed paranoid schizophrenic with capgras delusions. Not saying that's what this is but this nightmare is familiar.
Weird. His twin's name is Andrew too. He thought we'd all been replaced with doppelgangers and he had to kills them to get the real us back. Sees melting demons instead of our faces but is fine over the phone. Last time he got arrested(for stealing rifles from a friend and wrecking his car halfway across the state) he said that the entire town of 30,000 people are dopplegangers. He gave me 3 skull fractures and a broken cheekbone from a completely random act of violence, no tell, no build up, just took my eyes off him for 2 seconds. I'm lucky it didn't KO me or I'd be dead, lucky I've been hit plenty before, but it was with a piece of steel. Told me, then his twin, then the cops that he intended to kill me. He also claimed to be Jesus, the pope, the last pharaoh, etc. If you made it this far may you sleep as well as I do knowing he's free and self medicating.
Sh*t...
How is he now? Getting the help he needs, I hope. Also, I hope that you're fine now too.
One of my brothers in arms had a mental break during a firefight and broke my arm with his rifle, swung it like a baseball bat at my face. I stopped it with my arm. Luckily, the rest of the boys were there to keep firing and hold him down. He got sent to a mental institute.
I still visit him, he's still my brother, and he knows what he did and is genuinely apologetic every time he sees me. I know that it wasn't really him that did it, his brain just malfunctioned. But I'm still apprehensive around him. I'm very glad that he saw the rifle as a bat rather than a rifle, though.
self medicating? oh boy that aint good. probably only a matter of time then. I hope im wrong. i hope your dome is alright after what happened to you. how is it that he ends up self medicating, he just stops taking his regular meds and starts doing dope?
I had meth induced delusion it's scary as fuck and really real feeling. That's weirdo dope now
Doesn't really surprise me. People are really fucking nuts these days
he terrorizes you and your family and you do nothing? sad
Mental health is no joke. Take care of yourselves people❤
True
@DSUM right meth causes so called mental illness so I have no sympathy(don't touch meth and won't have so called "mental illness") so sick of these excuses for shit people. Smh. People just need to face the fact that not all people are inherently good.
@@dsum or ritalin, which is based on meth compounds.
@@Chrisisplaysadderall is possibly worse and is far more prescribed these days. I dont know a single person who was ever on ritalin yet I know literally dozens of people who were prescribed adderall at a young age and are still prescribed. Decent amount of them dabbled in cocaine and eventually meth at some point do to the tolerance they build from adderall and want to experience the same rush they got when first overdoing the drug
When I was institutionalized they fed me LSD gummie bears.
And the asylum would have a talent show for all the Lunie Toons to perform there
My special talent was fart the Alphabet. But sadly I never made it & completed it.
I always seemed to shit when I came to the letter S
During the pandemic, mental asylums were running short on toilet papers, so we would use orderly uniforms to wipe our butts of.
One orderly loved to get his penis sucked by the inmates, so one day a guy pretended to please him, only to bite his nutsack off.
His balls would literally slip out of his sack & fall on the floor.
So the guy would steal his key, open up his celldoor, headed to the kitchen & made some delicious scrambled eggs from the guys balls.
But they didn't really scramble all too well, they rather puffed up & became very solid. But theres nothing a little salt pepper & lemon juice wouldnt fix.
So he went back just to devour the guards testicles in front of him.
Oh, we did all kinds of shenanigans there.
Good times....
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢 I' am literally dumbfounded by this and it goes to show mental health is not a joke!!!
Crazy this happened in my home state of New Mexico!! I wish there was an easier way to find your videos bu the locations they take place in.
I honestly love the one cop narrating the entire time at the scene. "Anyone comes up on us is gettin' smoked dude." You can tell how tense and spooky the vibe must be for those guys
Cop trash talk. Gonna smoke someone? Sounds like a thug with a badge and saying that sounds hypocritical. Its a huge problem in our country with these cops. They need to be trained better and follow the laws that they "protect".
@@rdallas81 Have you watched the video?
@@rdallas81 Agree
@@rdallas81 I mean, if I found someone's head chopped off... in the middle of the night..in the woods..with an axe, I think I might say something similar
@@rdallas81 Really shit take once you watch the video
Its not very often that one feels not only sorry for the victims, but also for the murderer. This is definitly one of these rare cases... Hope he get's proper treatment and may the familys of the harmed come to peace
I don't feel that bad. It seems a lot of his problems were induced by drugs
@@KT-xb8mw induced by Drug Abuse*
@@KT-xb8mw I know marijuana can mess with someone who has certain mental illness. I used to sit in the driveway in the middle of the night watching the “yellow people”. But an ex lived with this chick that got insanely paranoid and was trying to climb under the couch and trying to call 911. He called me and I asked if it was the same we smoked and it was. It’s crazy how something like Mary Jane can do to different people.
@@jenniferroach4153 it was definitely laced
@@jenniferroach4153 that shit was laced be homie
It's almost as if drugs should be illegal. That would definitely stop a criminal from obtaining them...
I live very close to this area and had no idea this ever happened! Murders here are rarely covered by media which makes it look like our area is safe but the crime is ridiculous here!
I have witnessed a prolonged psychotic episode in my husband who has an inflammatory brain illness. It lasted days. It started gently with him saying people were watching him and there were people hiding in bushes watching the house. At first I thought he was confused because of him having had a grand mal seizure the day before. However as the following days unfolded it became terrifying and resulted in me having to flee the house in the middle of the night with my children. I called an ambulance and the police were called. It resulted in him being pepper sprayed and restrained and taken to hospital where he was treated for a week. It was all horrific to witness and my heart broke for my husband who really was not in his right mind. When he came out of the psychosis he was mortified, embarrassed and broken hearted at what had transpired. He has a very rare illness and I was unaware at that time that psychosis had been included in the symptoms as it was occurring in others with the condition. I watched this video and was incredibly triggered. This man sounds exactly like my husband did. He is either a very skilled actor or really was in the midst of a psychotic phase. It’s incredibly sad to me. That poor woman and her family. It’s horrific.
It’s probably one of the worst feelings when you think everyone is out to get you, I stopped my meds years ago for just a few days and I was in that state of paranoia, but not violent. Just scared
It was just depression
@@nomadnoproblem3213 hru doing now?
@@lstruggy I’m doing a lot better now
I'm glad you doing OK, keep ya head up man
God bless you xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
“You have to understand that I’m not crazy! (maniacal laughter)” 🤣
That guy who gave him the ride should just stop helping EVERYONE! He has absolutely zero awareness and terrible intuition to think he was harmless. Hes extremely lucky.
Thanks so much for adding the subtitles. It’s a big help for those of us that are hard of hearing.
@Witty Witty Agree.
Accessibility is very important! Very true punky
How horrific to be aware that you can't rely on your own mind and how terrifying for that dear woman to encounter this altered version of him. Just heart breaking all around including the brave cop who was shot.
How do you come to the insight that he was brave?
@@Armor3d0ne well the fact that he went up against someone with a gun, dont think you would do that but id consider that brave
Nah… I know plenty of people with the same condition who are NEVER violent ! That’s an excuse ! Lock em up in prison throw away keys no sympathy !
@@TheBaBaTVwell.. not all conditions affect people the exact same way. outside influences and factors play a huge role in how someone perceives a situation and reacts.. don’t be ignorant. in no way am i defending him, but the fact is that mental illnesses affect everyone differently.
A Q
My brother gets like this when he relapses. I’ve had to sit with him many times and talk him down… it’s so scary and honestly traumatizing to watch someone you love completely lose control and my biggest fear is he not only hurts himself but others.
I feel for this man. I'm crying throughout this video. I understand him.
I had an uncle that experienced religious delusions and committed suicide.. he knew every word in the Bible backwards and forwards, he was the sweetest guy but suffered from bipolar disorder. He never hurt anyone only himself and I pray that we start to understand and learn about these disorders and how to fix or help them. What a tragedy this is.
Justifying the contradictions in the text becomes a loop, when you realize life is a loop then you may feel depressed. But remember the text says the stick it out
this is just another proof that weed is the evil drug that we must NOT legalize. Its the devil itself making people evil and worse!!!
@@scoper7897 how so?
And alcohol isn't just as bad?? Please....spare us the laugh. Pills maybe but weed??
@@janaewoods7736 I think you're replying to the wrong comment Janice
I've suffered with mental health issues for over 20 years and been in similar states to this where I didn't have a clue what I was saying or doing. It used to scare me so much in case I did something that I could never take back. I'm fine now on medication probably for the rest of my life and I've learned to cope better. There is help out there and if you think you or someone you know needs it go and get it.
Good for you. It takes alot of strength and courage to seek and accept help for mental illness. I'm glad you're doing well, you should be very proud of yourself. I'm a hugeeee Sopranos buff btw. Take care.
in the states its only possible to get help if u have the financial capacity. i truly believe those in power want the ppl to be sick. if this wasnt true then there would be help available. im waiting for my breakdown any dy now. living in a sick twisted toxic society which makes u sick, only to not have help offered. bc we should all be strong enough to deal. im shocked there arent more cases like this
@@chayarubin7991 Yeh I feel sorry for people in America I'm lucky I guess being from England we have free healthcare so even though there can be long waiting lists it is all readily available to us and free. It's a shame that you have to basically be rich just to get treatment or see a doctor just think how many people go undiagnosed because of it who could be saved so easily. Such a shame.
@@everyonepoops6371 Thank you.
@@chayarubin7991 yup there is straight up an agenda going on. Many agendas. We're in spiritual war my friend....
This case is particularly scary to me. I have a brother that’s experienced psychosis off and on from prolonged meth use for many years. Some of those episodes were violent because in his delusion he truly believes people are after him or trying to hurt him. He’s been in and out of various treatment facilities over the years without any long term, stable care or follow up. He gets “dried out” at detox facilities and then churned out to various residence programs without strict supervision. I’m honestly terrified he will hurt someone one day.
This dude is most definitely not lying. He's rambling on, and his sentences don't make sense at all. He's got some deep underlying issues. My deepest condolences for the elderly woman whose life was taken so sencesly. 🙏❤️🕊
