Thanks Jaz, hopefully we’ll learn more about this. I havn’t had time to go through the Facebook info, but something tells me this PFC is getting railroaded.

Thanks for the ping, jaz. A little more info here: Carson soldier on antidepressants accused of killing Afghan prisoner

This is truly a sad situation. Supposedly his family has a history of schizophrenia....after he began hearing voices, he sought help upon advice from his parents. The military gave him anti-depressants (for schizohprenia???!!!!) and sent him back on duty only after a few days. If this young man suffers from this mental illness, the military has a lot to answer for by disregarding his symptoms and forcing him back on active duty.

The article notes he was nodding off during his court appearance and when he did speak, his speech was slurred. He's probably on a much stronger anti-psychotic at this point.
