RIP Greg Halman

Damn, that was uncomfortable to read but I couldn't stop.

 

Very interesting footnote that Jason received no jail time and instead will get treatment. Couldn't be further from how an American court would handle this. I thought it was curious that the angle was not at all told as part of the story.

 

Not sure why this moved now . I thought his case had been handled.. but ...
Jason Halman was acquitted of his brother's death by reason of temporary insanity.

It does sound like he had some mental issues. Not saying he shouldn't be doing some jail time, but I'm glad he's at least getting treatment.
