Something is seriously bothering me. I just watched the Arraignment Video that our wonderful Angel posted. It's plain to see he was crying and his eyes appear red from crying in his booking photo. In the video, he appears very nervous, and imo remorseful. I seriously wonder if this started as an argument that resulted in an accidental death. GOD help me for even suggesting that but it is on my mind. His actions after the fact belie this, at least in my mind, as I was/am of the notion that he knew he should have stopped but maybe couldn't control himself...he was too enraged or wound up. I wonder if he confronted Annie about something pertaining to her job, be it protocol or mice or whatever, and she responded in a way he didn't like. Maybe he responded with a threat and she slapped him across his face. HYPOTHETICAL. Maybe he slapped/pushed her back and we all know now where it ended up - the end result. I am "hypothetically" thinking that this was an argument that got out of control and he didn't mean it, now he's thinking "Jeez, what the heck have I done...I'm done for now...worthless". I do wonder if he could be considered a suicide risk. Something just isn't sitting right with me. I do believe he's where he needs to be, but something is rubbing me the wrong way for some reason.
Heck, I know, I just need to shut up. This is my original perp anyway. Let him rot, right? There's just something about the way he looked in that video...and his booking photo. Looks like a picture of a "spent" man to me...looked very frightened.
Perhaps this is something people can learn from. I hear of people that are too embarassed to seek psychiatric help. If he had a problem with being overtempered or controlling/opinionated, perhaps he had a chemical change within his body that a little pill could have taken care of...and in turn prevented this. I have no idea, this is just speculation. It's very sad all the way around. I am not sympathetic towards him, just observing from a distance...and wondering in print. :blowkiss:
