Skylar Deleon, 29, who is facing trial after allegedly murdering a couple at sea to steal their yacht, has been hospitalized after trying to cut off his own penis in a mental ward.
According to Dlisted, the Orange County Sheriff's department tells the LA Times:
"Somehow he got a hold of a razor blade and tried to saw off his penis, but didn't complete the job."
"We do know there was a lot of blood and it was quite a scene. But from what I know, he didn't finish his task, and maybe it was too painful and that made him stop."
