I was wondering what exactly he did for them to arrest him once he was located. But I found an older (2012, I think) story about what he'd done in the past. It sounds like he needs to be taking his meds.

In this story, it mentions him going to Central State Hospital (Louisville). If that's where they put dangerous mentally ill people, that's scary. It's real close to my cousin's house (with a wife and two kids). In the story already posted here, he was in Eastern State Hospital (Richmond, a little south of Lexington).

It's actually a pretty long/detailed article...

Troubleshooter Investigation: Mother makes multiple 911 calls before son shoots her
WAVE-3 (Louisville, KY)
2012(?)
LEBANON, KY (WAVE) - A Kentuckiana man sits in jail charged with savagely beating his own mother and then shooting her in the head. She survived that brutal attack, and reached out to the WAVE 3 Troubleshooter to investigate her claims that Kentucky State Police abandoned her 9-1-1 calls for help.
Family members said pictures of Shane as a loving father and son faded when mental illness derailed his life. His criminal record is 12 pages long, including convictions for assault, wanton endangerment, fleeing from police, burglary, and numerous alcohol and drug charges.
"I wanted my son to be a normal person," Susan said. "He's my son."

She said love drove her to take her son in, after Central State Hospital in Anchorage released him. A judge ordered Shane to the hospital for psychiatric evaluation. But days after her son's January release, Susan said Shane stopped taking his meds, started drinking, and spiraled out of control.
"His name is Shane Wright, he's got two weapons," the neighbor can be heard on the 9-1-1 recording telling dispatchers as Susan cries in the background. "The state police has done been here," the neighbor told the dispatcher. "She needs an ambulance now."

Shane Ray Wright is now charged with first degree assault and possession of a handgun by a convicted felon. In a preliminary hearing in February, Shane's attorney claimed Susan attacked him and that he hit her in self defense.

Shane also told detectives he only fired the gun to scare his mom and didn't mean to hit her. But Susan claims that's another case of her son distorting reality.

"He said, ***** you're going to die tonight," Susan said. "You're going to get what's coming to you."
