Speaker 1: you had mental illness, you had violence, you have all

3
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:15,800

6
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:26,080
Speaker 2: my home state of Texas. It's a wild story about

7
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 2: a prominent family ripped apart and a killer that might

8
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 2: have gotten away with murder.

9
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 1: It was a memorable story. You don't have an associate

10
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:38,519
Speaker 1: justice being murdered very often.

11
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:43,040

00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 2: his wife.

14
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 3: It comes across as a pretty caring, nice man, which

15
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 3: I'd like to believe that he.

16
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 2: Was very respected politically influential. It's about a killer with

17
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 2: a grudge and some serious problems that were never treated.

18
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 4: He had these resentments which were understandable, but I also

19
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,200
Speaker 4: think he had voices telling him that he should do

20
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 4: something about them.

21
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 3: That just doesn't sound like something that would happen as

22
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 3: an accident. What it sounds like is a failed suicide attempt.

23
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 2: It's about how we treat people with mental illness and

24
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 2: the justice system in America.

25
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 5: Most people would agree that, yes, mental illness is in

26
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 5: fact an illness, and people shouldn't be held accountable for

27
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,760
Speaker 5: something that they didn't have control over. Unless you're the

28
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 5: victim of that crime, then obviously you feel very differently.

29
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 6: I didn't really like know that I had been stabbed.

30
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 6: I just realized I couldn't move my hand and I

31
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 6: saw blood. You just want them to feel the pain

32
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 6: that you felt.

33
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:43,039
