Son of Sam, David Berkowitz, claimed he heard the devil's voice speaking to him through the next door neighbors dog. Rifkin also claimed to hear voices telling him whether or not to strangle his next victim. A woman named Ameenah Abdus-Salaam had dreams and heard voices' telling her that judgment day was at hand. Dennis Sweeney is another person that lost touch with reality. He suffered from hallucinations, paranoid beliefs, and delusions. Out of the four people I have named only two were acquitted due to reason of insanity. What one jury might consider actions of an insane person, another jury will not.

Now why would you post a picture of him in uniform? Back in those days everybody served who was was “alive in 65”. Even those who later would be labeled as crazy.
