I so agree with Taylor and David. Enough is enough! I don’t even have to read the article– his face has been posted so many times, I know exactly who he is! He either needs to be in prison or mental hospital. Pick one and get him off the streets!!!

REGARDING:
“The real question is why isn’t he getting mental help?”

A related question is: How do we know he isn’t?

We can be reasonably certain it isn’t as effective as we would all wish, but unless his medical records have been released, how do we know he isn’t under treatment?

REGARDING:
“But i guess jails have a quota to fill, ”

Actually, they don’t.

David for a quota-free world

The real question is why isn’t he getting mental help? Any judge with commonsense could see this guy has mental problems and needs mental help.

But i guess jails have a quota to fill, and we no longer help people with mental issues

Looking at his arrest record, I feel confident this guy is not exactly mentally competent. I’d say the cheap steak knife he used was probably 100 times sharper than he is. That being said, Mr. Crabtree’s statement of locking him up for a long time will not accomplish what this man really needs. (Sorry Taylor, been a long time since I’ve seen your name or you for that matter. Hope your doing well old friend, and I hope your back is well). Honestly, this man’s mental state will probably never be what some of us would call “normal”. That being said, I don’t think the dept.’s of the gov’t can help anymore than him being with family. In the end, the questions of “what can be done or how do we solve mental illness?” will never be answered. It’s a genetic problem with no easy answers if any at all. That’s the beautiful dilemma and fascination of the human mind, no two are completely alike.

@Henry, you really need to take a good long hard look at yourself. You can not blame everything on the political parties. You must be living i n a really idealistic world. This man is mentally ill and has nothing to do with what you said. this is a justic problem not political. The judge needs to send him where he can et help before he kills someone or gets killed. I am hoping this will happen this time.
So over all I have to agree with David Green, who said “if you can cure him of his tendencies toward violence, please feel free to do so — with our blessings.”

Jim for exercising common sense!!

Really, Henry, if you can cure him of his tendencies toward violence, please feel free to do so — with our blessings.

If you just want to complain that others have not cured him, please prove they could do so — with our blessings.

All that said, Should a man really have to turn down his stereo????

Further should a deputy get between a crazy man and the one who enraged him? (Not that I wouldn’t appreciate it if someone were coming at ME with a steak knife, or even a butter knife.)

if this individual is turned loose on society too many times, a tragedy is bound to happen. he’s a ticking bomb.

Henry, do you have to turn every story into Republican vs. Democrat drama? If you want to know why things in this country are so partisan and nasty, look in the mirror.
