Yes. You read that correctly. A mentally ill man who ATE part of a man’s brain and his eyeball in Bridgeport, was released. He’s now in Middletown. In theory, he’s on meds and supervised. Meds can be injected, but I don’t know exactly what ‘supervised’ means. Presumably, he’s in a halfway house.
When a person is found ‘not guilty’ by reason of mental disease or defect, they are placed in a mental hospital rather than a jail. In CT, there is only one hospital able to retain patients long term against thier will, Connecticut Valley in Middletown. Patients there have an active treatment program that means they have to earn any privileges. But if they follow the rules and protocols, they can even earn release. So, in theory, cannibal guy has been partly rehabilitated, moved to the next step in that process, and on his way to a better life. He’s been hospitalized for 10 years.
I don’t blame the people of Middletown for being upset. However, no matter how sensational this bit of news is, it’s not as henious as what’s been happening to children with gender dysphoria in CT. If I have to compare murder done by a mentally ill man to doctors mutilating children, that’s going to be a tough call.
CT’s AG, William Tong, joined other states AGs in suing the Trump administration over the president’s prohibition of ‘gender affirming care.’ CT’s ‘world class health care system’ has had $760,000 worth of child transition treatments submitted to insurance companies. That doesn’t include other types of payments.
While canibalism is easily classified as a mental health problem, children in the grip of trans ideology [and thier parents] are told the solution to thier psychological discomfort is to cause physiological damage with cross-sex hormones, cut off healthy body parts, and submit themselves to high risk surgeries.
This is sane?
Cannibal guy certainly makes CT look bad on the national stage. But the real crime is what’s been happening to our children.
There’s an election coming up. Vote.
