Florida school shooting suspect said he heard 'demons'

The suspect in last year's Florida high school massacre told officers moments after his capture he was hearing demons, a statement that could be used if his attorneys mount an insanity defense... In the body camera video released Friday, the unidentified Coral Springs officer wearing it asks the then 19-year-old suspect casually, "What's going on today, bro?" Cruz replies, "Demons, man." "Demons?" the officer asks, playing with a piece of string in his hands. "Voices," Cruz replies.

Yes, he had a long rap list. The adopted mother gave up reporting him. The school got money for not reporting. Bad seed or messed up mentally?

That were not demons he heard — that was Mohammed, Satan’s messenger.

There is also the “Voice of God” technology that the military uses. See a short video of it’s use on this link: https://youtu.be/1pefJgkG0lw

That’s overkill, the sign of a liar. People who hear ‘demons’ don’t say, ‘demons’ because they don’t know if the voices are demonic or not. They just say ‘voices.’

And if the little prick obeys demons, then he needs the death penalty anyway.

Nah, he was just setting the stage to plead insanity. “One flew over the cuckoo’s nest” claims another victim.

***The kid needed to be locked up in an institution years ago. **

I agree, but remember, Pat Purdy was in California mental institutions several times. The state released him, allowed him to buy guns, passing the waiting periods, then he shot up the Stockton School yard, killing himself.
California immediately pulled out an already prepared anti gun bill and passed it before any opposition could be mounted against it.

Yeah... his history screamed “Cuckoo! Cuckoo!” for years before this. And it’s also commonplace that Satan and his hordes plague the mentally ill, and I’ve heard it reported that Florida ranks 50th out of 50 states in its support for the care of mental health. It’s one of the few places where the archaic electroshock treatment for mental depression is still commonplace.

Cruz is a canary in a mine filled with very foul air. Were it possible to wave a magic wand such that Cruz would die tomorrow, we wouldn’t have scratched the surface of Florida.

A bullet in the back of the head will evict those demons

No. If it was acid, he wouldn’t have been able to shoot fast enough to keep the barrel from melting into a puddle, much less aim it.

I wouldn’t be surprised to hear an explicit report of demons. There’s enough religion heard from in Florida to get people aware of the issue.

The year I spent in Florida after going down there for a job (which turned out to have big integrity problems) convinced me that Florida is unusually filled with devils compared with other states. And that the only thing which can really fight them is Christ.

Slaying all mankind will eradicate all sin.

The problem comes with finding someone worthy to do it. Humanity has sunk so low, the hypocrisy factor is great, especially given Jesus’ characterization of what is tantamount to murder (and which can be seen daily on FR).

I take it back, it looks like Delaware has sunk lower if we are counting funds. But far from “bullshit” on the main.

Also please explain the electroshock.

By the way you attributed the claim to me, rather than accurately repeating “I heard it reported.” That was late last year, one year following your report.

That is a sign of dishonesty on your part. Please correct it. I might not even have to take back Delaware.

You’re going to like Google, once you get the hang of it.

In 13 of the 50 states, the practice of ECT is regulated by law.[77] One state which does report such data is Texas, where, in the mid-1990s, ECT was used in about one third of psychiatric facilities and given to about 1,650 people annually

Yeah, to pull out quite irrelevant factoids in order to explain away huge anomalies.

I claimed bullshit on what you heard reported. How you received it is your problem, not mine.
