Man accused of stabbing kids in Brooklyn elevator suffers from schizophrenia, suspected in other attacks - NY Daily News

So this guy was released from prison....he has sz and was in there for something clearly violent....he did his time and should be free but when they released him they gave him zero medication and said he wouldn't be able to see a doctor for a few weeks. Sadly he stabbed and killed several people including children. I know this will blow up as this terrible mental illness and look what happens etc but the truth of the matter is he was most likely suffering from the psychosis that occurs with rapid medication withdrawal. Because someone couldn't organize psych care/meds for him he's probably never going to see the outside world again...the system is setting people up to fail

Suddenly going cold turkey on the meds wasn't very smart...... Why would they give him zero meds when they knew it could happen? Plain stupidity in my opinion.

Mental Healthcare has disintegrated over the years. Mentally ill people who are violent need to be monitored, not thrown on the street with no medication or support.

I've seen stuff like this happen with my mom who is violent and has schz. The hospitals blatently seem not to care about her or those she hurts. They are under a lot of pressure not to keep people I think
and sometimes seem like they really minimize the problem. Strangely, they don't feel legally responsible for what happens when they release her and she's on no meds ( because she won't take
them) . Sometimes the way the world works is exactly the opposite of what it should be.
