TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN9-TV) Jared Lee Loughner is described as a loner. By all accounts, he stayed away from just about everyone, including his own neighbors. But, at Mountain View High School, it seems things were just a little bit different.
"He was a very nice kid. He was very, very intelligent. He would help me out with like my math and that's how it started off," explained Ashley Figueroa. She told KGUN9 she dated Jared Lee Loughner in high school.
"He just seemed like one of those kids who kind of kept to himself. He was very, very quiet. I kind of made the effort to talk to him because he kind of kept to himself. He was actually a really nice kid when it came to it we started dating when I just turned 15," added Figueroa.

And, then, another revelation, "I know he smoked marijuana. I know he did some hallucinogens, that's what kind of turned me off as well because I wasn't into that kind of thing," said Figueroa. "Do you know what kind of hallucinogens he was doing?" "Mushrooms."
Ashley told us Jared became scary sometimes, "What was Jared like as a boyfriend when you did start dating?" KGUN9 asked. "He was overall, he was good. But, he had a temper problem. He used to scare me sometimes and that's why I left him. He kind of made me feel uncomfortable at times. He'd get really mad, clench his fist and then throw a kind of little tantrum; he'd flail his arms and walk off," added Figueroa.

Take a look at the video. It is edited and spliced at 3:36, but the quality of the edit is not the best. Something has been cut out.
The mushrooms made him do it!

If she likes dogs she can’t be too bad.
I agree. She should have just sat up.(pretty face)
“Something dishonest and devious has been done with this video.”
She is being lead through the whole interview by the reporter. What you see on the video is probably the third or fourth “take”.
More useless BS from a girlfriend of 7 years ago seeking her 15 minutes of fame.
I saw yesterday someone posted a twitter exchange by several people that knew him, he was an ardent leftist in the Olbermann range.
She's a fruitcake. Better check her for weapons too.
OMG, that is dad?
We are lost.
LOL. He looks like more of a stoner than her.
Cute classy haircut but don’t slouch young lady....
Dad looks like he needs to grow up.
THAT is the reason we have Obama as our “leader”. He looks like a cast member of “Idiocracy”
Well, what do you expect? The "explosion in a hardware store" look has been around for better than two decades. EIAHS guys meet EIAHS gals, get together, fall in love, marry, have kids (in no particular order) and the kids grow up. The EIAHS parents often retain their "look", while the kiddies don't necessarily adopt it ... and the result is pictured upthread. She looks saner than her dad. Looks may, of course, be deceiving.
With a father who looks like that, she is doing the best she can.
Damn, I guess that must be why a guy like Jared Loughner was a good catch! LOL
Legalize pot and all other drugs and you get a lot more Jared Loughners. Kids who are marginal that drugs push over into oblivion. Kids who will be violent though not murderers like Loughner
But definitely kids who are incapable of studying
Incapable of work in a normal workplace
Kids who will be stuck living at home with ma and pa taking care of them for decades
Wake up libertarians
That gives new meaning to "sparks" in a romance.
Other times ...
Not so much.
This one turned out to be a violent psycho ... and she claims to have ditched him (wise move) for that reason.
