But apparently Connecticut doesn't feel the same as they have recently released Tyree Smith, a brain-eating cannibal, on the basis of "good behavior," despite the fact that he once told one of his psychiatrist that he wanted to eat her flesh.
From WND:
“Tyree Smith is an individual with a psychiatric illness requiring care, custody and treatment,” the board stated in its report this week. “Since his last hearing Tyree Smith has continued to demonstrate clinical stability. Mr. Smith is medication compliant, actively engaged in all recommended forms of treatment, and has been symptom-free for many years.”
Smith, who was 36 at the time, was sentenced to 60 years in a psych ward in September 2013 (effectively a life sentence) after a jury found him not guilty of murder by way of insanity.
In December 2011, Smith murdered a homeless man, Angel Gonzalez, mutilated his body and ate his brains and eyeballs.
A psychiatrist previously testified that Smith said he heard voices that told him to eat Gonzalez’s brains and eyes ‘to better understand human behavior’ and ‘to gain vision into the spiritual real.’ He also expressed his desire to consume her flesh.
Tyree Smith was released from the psych ward this week after the state board determined he has been ‘symptom-free’ for many years.
“He denied experiencing cravings but stated that if they were to arise, he would reach out to his hospital and community supports and providers,” the report stated, according to the CT Post.
Yeah, I'm sure he'll have complete control over his cravings... Give me a break.
This person is clearly mentally disturbed and would be better off spending the rest of their life in a psychiatric ward.
