Might abridge title to tell us "gruesome Conn." what? (And "eating the victim's eyeball" - that's plenty gruesome, lol. Glad I already finished the olives I had, yesterday.)

wow, mental health issues, sounds like at first blush. So sad for the man, Angel. If Smith is to be believed, Angel was trying to assist and invited him inside after finding him on the porch.

RIP Angel. Prayers for his family.

"His victim’s family raised objections about his release. What about THEM? Where is the justice for THEM?" said state Senators Heather Somers, Paul Cicarella, Henri Martin, and Stephen Harding in a statement.

"This terrible decision puts public safety in jeopardy and is yet another terrible message to send to CT violent crime victims and their families. This person should never be out," the statement added. "We are dumbfounded at this injustice. In what universe is this OK?"
