\u201cAs long as he was taking his medicine for PTSD, he was all right. When he got off the medicine, he would go wacko,\u201d Ferriere said in a phone interview. \u201cHe beat people up. He would threaten people. He got locked up. He lost his job three or four times because he wouldn\u2019t take his medicine.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
That’s odd, because thousands of Marines who suffer the effects of PTSD didn’t kill anyone, or “go whacko” this week, or the week and months before Tuesday.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo one in this God-given world knows why he did it. I can\u2019t tell you why he did it,\u201d Bob Ferriere said, adding the only possibility was the PTSD, based on his past behavior.<\/p>\n
Ferriere said he believes Frink suffered from PTSD from his time in the Marines and had a traumatic brain injury. But he didn\u2019t know when he served nor how he might have gotten injured. He also did not say what medications Frink was taking.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe had 10 years of fighting PTSD,\u201d Ferriere said. \u201cWhen he didn\u2019t take his medicine, he went berserk.\u201d<\/p>\n
A spokesman for the U.S. Marines did not respond to a request to confirm Frink\u2019s military service or his injuries.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Step-Dad, obviously a trained clinician familiar with PTSD, “believes” that Frink suffers from PTSD, but he doesn’t know when the guy served or how he caught the disorder. He’s convinced that medication corrects Frink’s PTSD, but he doesn’t know what this magic drug is called – despite the fact that this supposed disorder affects the entire family. I’m thinking that he was messed up before he joined the Marines, if he even was a Marine, and came out the same way. <\/p>\n
The Marines just provide an easy-to-understand cause for the media – the same media that runs with the story before they can even verify it with the Marine Corps.<\/p>\n
