Connor Lynn Hilton was sentenced to 50 years behind bars after pleading guilty to the murder of 18-year-old Ethan Riley and the shooting of Benjamin Bliek on Dec. 23, 2023, in Galveston County. ...

accutane is a hell of a drug.

If I had been on the jury it might have been hung, cause I know first hand what it can do to your brain.

and it destroyed my night vision too.

Should have been banned a long time ago

I took two rounds of it, only worked when I was taking it and made my lips shed like a snake.

Agree. Accutane should be pulled from the market. It absolutely cantankerous, rage, severe headaches, personality changes, etc. All these drugs we have our kids on is changing their brain chemistry.

You literally have to sign, (as does the prescriber and dispenser) and agree that you understand how dangerous Accutane is.

Accurate is an evil drug. I knew and loved a woman who adopted a baby whose birth mother had taken that drug. He’s severely retarded.

Better give Connor a couple of tubes of KY jelly as a
"starter pack". It will make it easier on him as he is
introduced to his new "friends".

Use tape.

For what? Acne, or keeping your butt-cheeks together?

Milk of magnesia worked for me.

Apply to face and let dry then a moist cloth to clean off.

I’ve heard a facial of a mixture of coconut oil and oatmeal to be very good.

Bad luck about the acne.

Young men with steady girl friends have a hugely lower risk for every kind of crime.

Of course, mental illness contributes to violence, too.

When you kill your friends, that is cruelty X 10.
