Excellent! Yeah I jumped over on that thread one night...eerily similar. I almost sent a link to David Robinson to show it happens with others.Page 10 of the report:
I just wrote an entire thing about the link between marijuana triggering psychotic episodes, especially within people already struggling with mental health issues, on the Jason Landry thread. I will copy & paste here what is relevant, but if you'd like to read my own story & struggle with the mental illness/weed combo, feel free to check out his thread.

So, a lot of people don't know this, but weed itself can for sure cause psychotic episodes, etc. I cannot smoke weed, period, it triggers massive anxiety within me and has caused depressive or anxious episodes that have lasted weeks at a time (absolute hell, for anyone wondering).
Does Cannabis Cause Psychosis?
Over the past 2 decades, there has been extensive research on the association between cannabis and psychosis.
Modulation of the endocannabinoid system by the main psychoactive component in marijuana, Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol, can induce acute psychosis and cognitive impairment.
Carney and colleagues investigated the prevalence of cannabis use and its association with symptoms in participants at ultra-high risk (UHR) for psychosis. Across 30 studies (n=4205 UHR), there was a 27% current and 53% lifetime prevalence of cannabis use, and a 13% prevalence of cannabis use disorders (CUD). This corresponded to a 2.09-fold and 5.45-fold increased odds of lifetime use and CUD, respectively, in patients at UHR compared to n=667 controls. Furthermore, UHR cannabis users had a higher prevalence of both suspiciousness (ES=0.21) and unusual thought content (ES=0.27).
Johnson and colleagues11 conducted a large genome-wide association study of those who use cannabis (n=20,916) and controls (n=363,116). They identified 2 loci with genome-wide significance: a novel locus on chromosome 7 (FOXP2; OR=1.11, 95% CI 1.07-1.15), and a previously identified locus on chromosome 8 (near CHRNA2 and EPHX2; OR=0.89, 95% CI 0.86-0.93). Importantly, cannabis use and CUD were significantly, positively, and genetically correlated with schizophrenia in this study.
Szoke and colleagues4 meta-analyzed 29 studies of cannabis use and schizotypy (attenuated psychosis). Lifetime cannabis users had significantly greater scores for total (ES=0.42), positive (ES=0.44), negative (ES=0.18), and disorganized (ES=0.33) schizotypy versus never users. Furthermore, current cannabis users had significantly greater scores for total (ES=0.21), positive (ES=0.23), and disorganized (ES=0.27), but not negative schizotypy scores versus subjects that do not currently use cannabis.
For anyone wondering about schizotypal personality disorder (SPD), here is more information. My brother has it, so I feel comfortable speaking to it. It is difficult to witness your loved one go through paranoia and delusions. Here's some of the common symptoms -
No drug works for every person, and weed can indeed be a dangerous substance for those with mental illness issues.
- Dress, speak, or act in an odd or unusual way
- Be suspicious and paranoid
- Be uncomfortable or anxious in social situations due to their distrust of others
- Have few friends
- Be very uncomfortable with intimacy
- Tend to misinterpret reality or to have distorted perceptions (for example, mistaking noises for voices)
- Have odd beliefs or magical thinking (for example, being overly superstitious or thinking of themselves as psychic)
- Be preoccupied with fantasy and daydreaming
- Tend to be stiff and awkward when relating to others
- Come across as emotionally distant, aloof, or cold
- Have limited emotional responses or seem “flat”

I have a media thread for Daniel and am asking for it to be included in the opening post
Your work with Daniel’s case is phenomenal so THANK YOU!THANK YOU!!!!
Snipped for focus.
- Daniel drives 37 miles, then stops for 1 gal of gas. (BPD Report) So we can assume his fuel light has come on and he wants to be sure to have enough to stop at Verrado well and get to the Sun Valley Cactus well. My research shows generally in the Jeep Renegade a 1.5 gallon level when the warning light comes on. So now he has 2.5 gallons. But why only 1 gallon? He has credit cards. He's only a minute away from that first stop so time doesn't seem to be an issue for the short fill. Does he know he won't be returning to Tempe?
Looking at the police report
https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/21080582/robinson-report-9-23-21.pdf
I observe that page 26 ('Contact with apartment manager') a welfare check was made of DR's apartment and a number of marijuana blunts were observed in various places in the apartment.
Page 24 refers to a spontaneous trip made by DR to San Francisco (where blunts are legal) at the end of May.
MOO Although I was cynical before, the timing here sort of aligns with DR's behavior changes observed by family and friends.
Last paragraph.Sorry, I’m not following. He was seen alive by witnesses in August, i get that part. But what do you think happened?
Video reference by BPD says "at pump 4". No can or machinery listed as found at crash site.Snipped for focus.
Pumping only one gallon is not logical especially if you are low anyway and planning to drive out to a remote site. MOO there could be two reasons - the tank is nearly full and it is being topped off. Or a separate container is being filled, maybe a one gallon can for driving some kind of gas powered tool?
Welcome to the thread, good points and perspectivesThis below 100% re: marijuana. I hadn't made a connection b/t his spontaneous trip to SF, but the need for marijuana makes sense. I strongly suspect drug use along with a declining mental health state contributed to him abruptly leaving work. I appreciate @JJ Ray for posting the police report. While I read through it, I haven't studied it...so I may have missed some things. Some thoughts:
1) While his father is on the phone w/ police he checks Daniel's Instagram. He says his photos have been deleted. The police ask about the girl he said he was in love with. His father looks up her Instagram profile and gives it to him. How did her father know her full name or her profile? Had Daniel been following her on Instagram, and shared her profile w/ his father? I don't recall if there was a subpoena mentioned to get his instagram history/direct messages if that was possible.
2) One of Daniel's friends said he mentioned he hooked up w/ one of the girls at the Instacart delivery location. Is this delusional, a lie, or true? If true it could make more sense why he was fixated on K. To someone else though he mentions how a girl doesn't know he exists. In K's account she mentions nothing odd or criminal about the encounter...she doesn't say nothing happened.
3) Online gaming and his financials. There are references to his unusual recent spending. Roger mentions he was buying gaming parts, and he was wanting to build a gaming computer. I wonder if there were online gaming "friends" he may have confided in.
4) Undressing. I'm inclined to think it's something similar to paradoxical undressing perhaps from a head injury. Odd it seems he would have had on his orange vest from that morning...but further would show his declining mental state. It reminds me of another missing persons case Jason Landry, in which he likely made a wrong turn on his route, overcorrected and wrecked his car. The clothing he likely had been in that day was found approx 900' from the vehicle including a shirt, shorts, socks, underwear, slide sandals and a watch . His phone was in the vehicle, although it had slipped under his seat and keys were in the ignition. There's been no reported sign of him.
I need to review the spreadsheets @JJ Ray posted, as I can't grasp where he could have been driving or killing time before the crash. I don't see a criminal element though and not sure why his father and PI are pushing that angle so hard. His father claimed in the podcasts I listened to that police weren't taking his disappearance seriously. I did not get that impression at all based on the report.
The Police report (page 36) also says "...the video quality was poor...". It doesn't say anything about whether he put the gallon of gas in the vehicle or in a can.Video reference by BPD says "at pump 4". No can or machinery listed as found at crash site.
