So around 1998, in a cute little upstate NY town near Bard College, a student was apprehended, near naked, at an off campus dorm house, for allegedly cutting the throat of his ex girlfriend. He was tripping on acid and confessed to the killing immediatley. It happened at a closed down church near a desolate four way stop sign on a local winding road. Just after the fact, he ran through the woods for four miles to the dorm house. He nearly cut her head off. She was a daughter of two Oberlin professors and everyone was shocked. I didn't know the guy but he hung around a pizza place where I worked and we knew people in common.
At the trial he plead insanity and was sent to a mental institution. The parents of the poor girl hoped he remained there for a long time. Fast forward five years later.
He was released around 2003.
Fast forward to today. He has a wife and child, is the lead singer of a small rock band and is the branch manager at a major capital district library!
I feel like I'm on acid everytime I remmeber it. It all warps my reality. Its hard to accept but its true, the priviledged are treated diferently in our justice system, and this story is proof. I don't know how the guy can live like that. I cant imagine what his wife thinks. It's like, ok son, you're old enough now to know about your father. He murdered his girlfriend.
Nearly same thing happened to another Bard Student about 5 years ago. He slashed his female roomate and blamed it on weed. He got fifteen years.
You can google the story and then the guys name, his linkenden career profile pops up, just after his history as a convited murderer. See for yourself.
And be careful what you put inside you...
