Chances are he feels he is a martyr now and must not be held responsible for anything he does.
A .22 pistol? Reminds me of my niece who tried suicide by beating herself to death with a wiffle ball bat. It took hours.
I recall a recruit who tried to commit suicide by cutting his wrists with a razor. Drill Sargeant took him apart after he was released from the hospital.
DI: Where have you been?
Recruit: I tried to commit suicide
DI: Then why ain’t you dead?
He actually made it through basic and shaped up pretty well.
Bell was in the news again after he was arrested on Dec. 24 and booked on charges of shoplifting, resisting arrest and simple assault, police said.
Police said Bell tried to steal several shirts and a pair of jeans from a department store and fled when a security guard and off-duty police officer tried to detain him. After they found him hiding under a car, Bell "swung his arms wildly" and one of his elbows struck the security guard with a glancing blow, according to a police report.
He would probably have gotten away clean on the shoplifting charge if he hadn’t been wearing his pants down around his knees so his underwear would show.
He's a gooooood boy!
