Bipolar disorder does not cause or justify stalking, shooting or other complex premeditated plots like this. As someone with multiple mental illnesses, I have all the sympathy in the world for people who suffer from these conditions & do everything in their power to treat them. (I've tried 26 psych meds in my life so far). But the ugly truth is that a majority of bipolar, schizophrenic & other severely mentally ill criminals who end up in situations like this do NOT take their meds reliably & choose the manic highs/hallucinations & other symptoms that feel more exciting to them than the relative dullness of the stability caused by meds. And there are side effects, but when the other alternative is THIS, they should be legally mandated to take them or be institutionalized. I'm talking about the severely mentally ill, by the way. Not those with situational anxiety, depression or other things. This guy shows no real remorse or accountability which is a bad sign.
I'm glad Donahue did shows like this and was proactive towards the issues and briga the worlds focus. It's a shame so little bas changed in this and many systems.
Man are we gonna miss you Phil! I want to say thanks, but I feel like it's so much more than thanks I owe you!...RIP PHIL DONAHUE!..🤘💙 (Dec 21 1935- Aug 18 2024) ..a life very well lived, & one we can aspire to!
This was 32 years ago, I hope Dana his daughter is doing good, she a woman about 50 now, this was a long time ago, some may be gone now, but hopefully they are better.
Still, the mental health feild is stagnated and antiquated, like many of our systems, judicial, political, correctional environmental, etc. We still have no answers or protocols for the mentally ill. It is such a shame.
He has no remorse ..tells his crime story like a fun memory, even making jokes about his crime...He is using his illness as an excuse ; not taking any responsibility of his crime
nobody get screened in that country? background checks to see if they're ok to be owning a gun?? if he was diagnosed and not taking meds then id say he is responsible
How nobody EVER "remembers" the shooting? Seriously every damn person was in a "fog"and dosen't remember the terrible thing they did. It's just so convenient for them.
While there's no justification for violence... I black out for a few days during manic episodes and rely on friends and technology to keep me safe (even the psych hospital if necessary)Would never commit any violence like nearly all people with bipolar, but it's not impossible.

Wow! Revisiting Phil here on You Tube, reminds me how back in the day, we used to wish he had more than his hour!…✌🏼🇨🇦

The sad thing is, nothing much has changed in regard to dealing with mental health in the US. Especially when it comes to the criminal justice system.
Thank You for posting this video & the informative blog post.
You're welcome. Thanks very much for taking the rime to read the blog.

I miss watching Donahue, Geraldo, Sally Jesse and Oprah!!
3 Minutes in...Bizarre & Tragic

It’s a perk on the insurance plans for lawyers doctors judges etc. lawpro.

He's a butthole
Dark comedy...😕😕
Give him back his licence .
Not much has changed in Philly when it comes to those of us living with bipolar. But the disorder doesn't inherently cause violence.
Boy said he's not trying to get out, he's chilling like a villain on Ritalin in that nut house. Lol
im glsd times have changed because thete ste many different mental illnesses then rhete ate neurological disorders.. very different..
id have sued the hospital ... second story
15:47 the intro when Phil dealt with serious issues
15:48 serious issues Donahue theme
nobody get screened in that country? background checks to see if they're ok to be owning a gun?? if he was diagnosed and not taking meds then id say he is responsible
America is sadly practically a free-for-all when it comes to guns.
Those meds are sometimes what push people over. Robert Whittaker and Anne Harrington speak and write well about these issues.
I laughed when he read 1-800 NAMI
Pooped pants
Change them immediately

Why is his daughter there? Inappropriate
Because she's attractive
@@DMG118
Um wait... WHAT???
why not? she's an adult and she's clearly there as part of the episode..duh! why not? and her being there is certainly not inappropriate
