...is the only thing that ever got him noticed, and is about to bring him more money than he's ever had? Yeah, I'd say almost anyone he ever approaches should be a little worried. Dude already had severe mental problems, and now these very problems have been validated and are garnering him the approbation of the only people who will ever associate with him again.

I doubt he will turn into a mass murderer, but we should all be frightened.

Because he stalked and murdered a kid who was doing nothing but minding his own business? EOTE Jul 2013 #14

No.. why do you think he would do it again after all the hubbub... Pelican Jul 2013 #18

Because he's already gotten away with it? EOTE Jul 2013 #20

If anything he'll have an incident... Pelican Jul 2013 #25

And that incident could very well happen because no one should feel safe around that thug. EOTE Jul 2013 #26
