Those who knew the 21-year-old suspect, Robert Crimo III, say he habitually smoked cannabis, a habit he appeared to share with young mass shooters, including at Uvalde, Dayton, Parkland and Aurora...At some point, his father moved out of the family home into a house two miles away in Highwood, while Crimo stayed with his mother and the Highland Park house fell into disrepair...But when Crimo turned 18, his personality changed, Pacileo told NBC News,..."Instead of therapy, he turned to drugs..."...Another former friend, Bennett Brizes, described the Crimo he knew from age 14 to 17 as "an isolated stoner who completely lost touch with reality."

It’s possible that there were other drugs, too.
Broken families and doctors giving out prescription drugs like candy
It does make many schizophrenic.
This shooter is an evil individual. Broken home and drugs story line carries no weight when you are killing people by shooting from a roof. Unfortunately, Illinois does not have a death penalty because he is certainly deserving of it.
Wouldn’t be surprised.
The mara-hoochie they’re burning today is up to 20X as strong as the stuff your folks smoked at Woodstock. And, like most super-powerful psycho-reactive drugs can cause psychosis.
The relaxed, reflective mood the lower strengths had, has been replaced by “Scromiting” and that can’t be good for one’s state of mental health.
A friend of mine smoked too much weed and went bonkers. He had two family members who went crazy, one criminally, without drugs.
He shouldn’t have smoked that stuff. He lost his family, his friends, his job and his home. All over getting a buzz.
Tried talking to him recently but it was impossible. The whole world is conspiring against him in his mind. Unfortunately the whole world has no idea of how to deal with him or does not care.
Wow, scomitting

Academia, media and the DNC are the primary culprits.
Drugs just went along for the ride.
Yes. It even more routinely causes other long term changes in the brain of a young person.

All details matter, but that’s not to make excuses.
Those from broken homes may be more empathetic than most. The potential dope factor might matter when considering the impact on certain physiological types. But that’s not to say potheads from broken homes should be denied their 2A rights especially since there’s nothing conclusive about that combination.
The LEOs seem to be missing the beat on the critical indicators however.

Reefer Madness
Smoking marijuana is just not mentally or physically healthy.
Fire away, stoners!
My wife spent 10 years as a diagnostician in the Texas Juvenile Justice Department working with capital offenders. She had hundreds of cases over that time. They all had two things in common: they all used pot, and they were all high when they did the crime.
Water board him to find out.
