Did he control it or just change course once? Were you there? Do you know the last thing to go through his mind?
Such questions are unnecessary. The plane can't normally be driven into the ground. Too many automatic safety systems prevent it. It has to be placed completely into manual operation and then flown that way.

I agree that is is most likely that he did this on purpose. What I cannot agree with it is closing off my mind totally to other options.
Are you not listening to or reading the news? They are telling you what happened. How is it you're not believing the experts? You honestly believe this guy locked the cockpit door, had a stroke & then by some weird twist of fate maneuvered the plane into a controlled descent into the mountains? You really believe he just happened to have a medical episode at the same time the pilot left to use the bathroom? Oh, don't forget he was also able to push that one button too in his stroked out state. My, what a mighty coincidence!!

Think what you will but he had to reset the locking mechanism on the cockpit door as well. The evidence points to him being fully in control of what he was doing.
FYI - the experts have ascertained he had to perform certain acts to cause the descent to proceed as it did. i.e. operating certain lever/s
Most 20-somethings don't have strokes. I think it's pretty clear he did it on purpose.
