He killed to feed his addiction. The return of Reefer Madness!

Yeah.........on very rare occasions marijuana might cause psychotic episodes but not the face eating zombie cannibal kind. Most of these bizarre instances can be attributed to "research chemicals". The Chinese manufacture and sell these by the ton over the internet........and some are so potent they are practically undetectable by testing. Especially when the tests don't know what to look for. Take W-18 - 10,000 times more powerful than morphine. A dose the size of a few grains of sand is enough to kill a person.

Lord knows what kind of experimental drugs are being developed in clandestine oversea labs........and most of them are easily available online.

Another hidden benefit of the "war on drugs"

Martin County sheriff says NO traces of common drugs were found in his system..
It will take longer to determine if less common drugs..

Being very speculative here but I sure hope some idiot didn't lace his drink with something at the restaurant..

Good speculation looking at different angles like this. They may get some answers if he gains consciousness, But with his condition not being good he may die making it impossible to get the whole story.

They need to really find out where he was in the preceding days. Take a deep look into his life to see if anything stands out. So far, reports have him as an a well adjusted young man who had a good life. To storm out of the restaurant like that and not just kill, but become this monster is so far mind-boggling.

Where in the article that you linked to does it say that he is on a hospital ventilator- maybe the link goes to another article?

The mother is saying that he had been acting strangely for a week, claiming that he had super powers and was here to protect people. Under those circumstances, I don't think that someone laced his drink at the restaurant. It's more likely that he is mentally ill or took drugs.

It goes to show that maryjane is not some "harmless drug" as some people out there try to make out to be.

Sounds like schizophrenia. His mom said he was acting strange for about a week. 19 yo male in college is the classic time to have a psychotic break.

This would be even more tragic. Even if he comes out of it what happens when he learns about what he did?

I have dropped the ball on some of the details in these articles you may have noticed. Loooong week so I am a little run down. Apologies.

It's not good for psychotics or people exhibiting symptoms.
