TSO sends a link to the Orlando Sentinel<\/a> with the story of yet another vet who has gone nuts because he has this PTSD thing;<\/p>\n

A manhunt began late Monday for David Eugene Smith, who has a history of mental illness, is paranoid, delusional, armed and “exceptionally dangerous.”<\/p>\n

Deputies found Danyala Smith, 31, Nioski Williams, 25, and Miranda Mims, 28, dead in a home on Old Highway 37, south of Lakeland, on Monday night.<\/p>\n

[…]<\/p>\n

Smith, who refers to himself as “Prince David,” might have been in the military in the past and suffers from PTSD, Judd said.<\/p>\n

Smith has been held under Florida’s Baker Act for mental-health evaluation.<\/p>\n

In 2009, he was arrested by Lakeland police on charges of cocaine possession, marijuana possession and carrying a concealed weapon.<\/p>\n

Court records show he was convicted of a misdemeanor marijuana charge and the state dropped the cocaine and firearms charge.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I’m sure that it would be a nightmare to get a FOIA on the guy, I count seven David Eugene Smiths in AKO. I saw where he had been in the 82d Airborne Division, none of those seven have that in their records. None of them are in Florida. So getting his records would be a crap shoot. But, I do know that experts on PTS tell me that folks who do suffer from PTS aren’t a danger to anyone except themselves. The guy has more issues than PTS, obviously. <\/p>\n

The prosecutor dropped weapons charges and cocaine possession charges against him – it sounds more like law enforcement failed him. The PTS bullshit comes from his mother who is obviously trying to blame the military for abandoning him – but like I said, folks who have PTS don’t hurt other people. they have anger issues, but they’re more likely to hurt themselves than others.<\/p>\n

But saying “military” and “PTSD” makes it all so easy to understand for the low information public and the media.<\/p>\n

I saw another article somewhere which reported that he was going to pay back his cheating wife – but he doesn’t have a wife according to his mother, so there’s more at work here than his military service.<\/p>\n
