I remember Hendry singing his praises.

Good odds somebody takes him out when he goes inside.

Milton has obvious mental health issues.

Prison is likely to exacerbate them.

Bradley was arrested on felony assault charges after allegedly trying to strike his wife with a baseball bat.

Still swinging and missing....

Agreed.

No. Unfortunately, spousal abuse is not frowned upon in jail. The attitude is that you should be able to smack your bitch up every once in awhile and shouldn't have to go to jail for it. Chances are, Milton's cellmates would take his side in the matter.

It isn't the same as child rape or something like that.

Agree

dont like him. but I think he is clinically crazy

True, but he had the means to get help himself and never did. Millions of other people do not have the money to get themselves medicine or metal health care. I don't really have any sympathy for him.

I think he has been working with mental health care professionals for a while now. Sometimes it doenst work.

I dont know about sympathy, but it makes you wonder how many people we just cast aside as criminals are actually just mentally ill.

We tend to just throw people away in prison, and then point fingers when they come out and re-offend. Bradley is unlikely to be better off if and when he finishes serving a prison sentence. As a society, I think we should learn to be sympathetic a little sooner, rather than when it's too late.

Some of the truest words you've ever spoken.

I was thinking more along the lines that he says the wrong thing to the wrong person (or people).

He's had help with mental health issues previously. Whether he is not taking medication or whatever his issues, he has shown he is a danger to others (especially his wife apparently). It's not a matter of a single incident, but multiple incidents. When someone proves he is a danger to others repeatedly and has not gotten whatever help needed to refrain from violent behavior over and over, something has to be done to protect others. Thats why he's going to jail. The idea is, he learns that there are consequnces to not curbing his violent behavior. If he can't control that behavior.....he's where he belongs (or in a mental institution). As far as being sympathetic sooner.....they were, thats why he was not in jail sooner. He's had 2nd and 3rd chances. He struck out.

If he is mentally ill, and to what extent, you and I have no actual idea, he may never get anything. Tossing him in jail with violent offenders, (and if you can be honest here for a moment, that's where you prefer him to be) is hardly a solution that works for society, or Bradley. So when he comes back out and re-offends, you will step right up and prove my initial point.

It may not alter his behavior, but for whatever time he's incarcerrated, he is not out on the streets engaging in violent behavior. Again, this was far from his 1st crime. He has proven unwilling to curb the violent behavior or get the help needed to do so.
