In January 2011 a mentally ill man, Richard Kachkar, accidentally killed a police officer with a stolen snowplough when he was off his medications. The police officer stepped in front of the moving snow plough thinking he could somehow get it to stop by stepping in front of it. Kachkar was arrested and and deemed not criminally responsible. He was recently released this year and even more recently allowed to see his daughter but he needs constant supervision to make sure he stays on his meds.
What annoys me the most is the fact is the Police officer’s widows and others like her treat him everytime they speak of Kachkar as if he INTENDED to kill the said police officer and it drives me completely NUTS. Kachkar NEVER intended to kill ANYONE the police officer was an fool for stepping in front of a moving vehicle.
