[quote=Anonymous]I think his family did know. But the reality is that it isn't a crime to be psychotic. You can live in a world of delusions and still be functional on the outside. Kind of like you are the main character in an altered reality movie. His parents may have tried to get him help but little was available if he wasn't himself wanting help. Most people who are delusional don't think they need help - their altered reality is so real that realize it is altered. If he wasn't expressing homicidal or suicidal thoughts and he was able to function (hygiene, eating etc) then there is nothing anyone can do. I have no idea how skewed his thinking was or what motivated his actions - if it was a delusion or not. He did need help but our system is set up that mental health help is really really hard to access unless you personally seek it out.[/quote]
