Correlation doesn't equal causation. I imagine that he might have put on pants before attacking his parents, too.

The fact that a kid messed up enough to murder his own father was prescriped psychotropic medications seems really unsurprising.

Yeah, I have to agree. He was no doubt looney before he took the Prozac, as are a lot of people who take Prozac. The causation is reversed. He’s taking Prozac because he’s looney, not the other way around. All you can say is that the Prozac did not help.

Exactly. But if the kid was smart, he now has an airtight defense and will get away with murder. If you want to kill someone, just get a prescription for prozac or something similar prior to committing the act, and let the drug company take the fall.
