The ‘suspect’ was on psych meds for anger issues, too. I seriously worry about that stuff in kids.
There’s always the problem of assuming a causal relationship instead of simply a correlative relationship.
Those who have mental problems are more likely to do something egregious,
AND they are most likely to be on pysch meds.
I wouldn’t want to participate in this, but,
you’d need an experiment where a mentally healthy set of people were on the pysch meds to see if they were more likely to do deeds such as these,
AND you’d need a set of mentally ill that weren’t on the meds.
Basically, you’d need 4 combinations of groups, with the control group being non-ill, non-medicated.
