    At the end, the judge was so choked up, you could hear the sorrow in his voice and I swear he was a bit teary eyed too! So was I. Seeing how the schizophrenic character could be such a bright, articulate man who just became lost to the world when off his meds. I dearly hope some day we can have medications or treatment that help people where the side effects aren't almost worse than the conditions themselves.

      ​@@DravenGaldon't indulge a troll. I really liked your comment. Its so sad to see that such characters exist and that there aren't any 100% cures for these kinds of conditions. I can understand why the judge was so upset, made me upset too.

      @@aaronsmith5223Thank you Aaron! You know, I'm not one for conspiracies, but I think if there is one, it's in Big Pharma, and that they're preventing those cures from hitting the market. I mean, we can create and artificial heart, do a face transplant, reattach limbs, but we haven't found a cure for cancer? I'm skeptical. I think it's possible someone has (at least for some cancers) and they're keeping it off the market for monetary reasons. In their way, they're as evil as the tobacco industry (no offense to smokers!).

      Too many wind up homeless and in shelters. So many there do not understand and taunt them.

      People who have a proven history of violence and schizophrenia need to be monitored as far as medication compliance goes, otherwise they need to be put in a hospital. At least they have those depot injections these days, but it typically takes a court order to enforce a medication regimen. I agree though, it is sad.

      I'm fairly certain I've seen him play characters with the same issues. Do you know perchance her really has the disorder, or personal experience with it? He wouldn't be the first actor to bring real life to a role.

    I hate this clip/episode. It portrays people with severe mental illness as dangerous and that is not the case. People with schizophrenia are more likely to be a victim of a crime.
