    Thank God they caught this lunatic.

  • Cammosutra

    He wasn't so mentally ill he did not know to run from the law after his crime.

    Glad they caught him.

    He’s another one from Newtown Connecticut.

    Besides Adam Lanza—the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooter, it’s also the hometown of Richard Crafts—the guy who killed his wife and threw her body in the wood chipper.

    It could be the basis for a Stephan King book.

    Most people with a history of mental illness don't go around stealing cars and murdering people.

    I'm in the medical field! Mentally ill patients are not a danger to others. A small percent of these mentally ill patients are a danger to them self. Mentally ill patients are not capable of making complex decisions. This person does not show that he is mentally ill. This person was able to make complex decisions that led him to travel incognito. Mentally ill people does not have cognitive abilitie for ADL's (activity of daily living).

    You people will find that this was was never diagnosed with any mental illness. Without a medical diagnoses you cannot claim mental illness. For a killer to claim mental illness puts those who are mentally ill in a bad situation. Majority of mentally ill people are law abiding folks. Some work and live off the government. Ninety percent of my patients with mental illness are non-black. Mentally ill people do to school. Mentally ill people do not go to traditional colleges. Mentally ill people go to alternative schools with very small classrooms. So before throwing out the mentally ill card, know the characteristics of a mentally ill person.

    when it is stated "he suffered from mental illness", it makes me think who in their right mind does these horrid acts. Mental illness seems to be thrown out there when someone kills. It's unfair to those who really do suffer and are seeking help in dealing with the illness

    Strange, an Honor Roll student with mental illness. Somehow those two don't seem to go together in my mind but then again, Bundy was very intelligent. It will be interesting to see what prompted him to hack a person to death. God help us all!

    Wow, why didn't they put their knees in his neck, he killed people and led the police on a manhunt! I guess he was treated like a human being!

    Here we are again. We have someone who has mental health issues and he kills two people. I say that, as it appears there is evidence he did so. As a nation we have never dealt well with mental health. One would think we would be able to do better.

    Condolences to the families of the victims.

    Thank you to the tipster.

    Glad he was apprehended before he killed anyone else.

    The Matt Gaetz look alike is in custody thank goodness.

    "good old fashioned police work."
    A citizen called and turned him in.

  • Ken Best

    He's a college student and do not know that Google can track him?

  • hooderaw

    Police did not harm him while arresting him either. Good job officers!

    "he allegedly invaded a Willington home and stole pistols and long guns"

    Just as easy as stealing a TV or stereo. This the NRA's America.

    Imagine how the Uber driver felt once he or she realized who they’d been driving in the car with for 25 miles...

  • Smashly

    The article references the shooting of an Unidentified suspect. Was there another suspect or did they mean “victim”?

    Glad he's off the street. It's hard to say whether his mental illness is severe enough to get him off, but he'll be getting a thorough assessment now.

    A different article said he was possibly seen in Hagerstown Md. If that's correct his general direction seems to be SW toward wilderness land,lots of wilderness. There should be plenty of dogs put on his trail and his people should provide clothing and such with his scent on it.
