Janzen Jackson charged in murder of mother's boyfriend

[Burger]

I sincerely wish that someone....anyone in authority would begin the process of serious, scientific scrutiny on psychotropic drugs (mood enhancers, depression reducers...). I'm not saying Jackson was on them, but I'm saying he wasn't either.

Doctors are handing these out like candy at Halloween and we really don't know the final result of prolonged use of these. These drugs coupled with violent, video games ("Ghost Protocol, etc. etc. x 1000) in my opinion are causing these folks to completely freak out.

Fox News did an expose several years ago on all the "school shooters". The vast majority of these kids were given prescription drugs to monitor mood swings, depression or anxiety. Something tells me there is a connection.

I agree. These drugs are destroying people. Some work, but I've heard about people killing themselves after they try to get off of them.

lost me when you said fox news

Then you are indeed lost. Continue to eat your propaganda with your cereal each morning.

"...the economy is solid and recovering..."
"...our foreign policy is straight forward..."
"...our public education system is getting better..."
"...we can continue to borrow...."
"...having 12 million on disability isn't as big of a problem as many think...."

Gulp...gulp....gulp.....

People have been climbing bell towers, leaning out the window of book repositories, and stacking bodies long before video games and prescription drugs.

I knew that Jackson was headed for trouble after the vicious hit that he put on the North Carolina receiver at end of the bowl game.

yeah, ok with that hit..as many players do...you expected this from him?..

OJ, Hernandez, Jackson

Real class acts all. They all could have done so much good; but not.

When is the college f-ball community going to wake up and stop importing these thugs to colleges as "student athletes"? They certainly are not students. They are making a mockery of the college sports world. All for the $$$$ it brings in.

Hope they all rot in jail. These are the times you wish death penalties were still around.

Wow. No wonder he was dismissed from UT. Sounds like the guy has major issues, perhaps some mental illness. Although if it was obviously mental illness someone should have tried to intervene or help him before he had a psychotic break like this. Truly sad.

 

[YankeeVol]

Holy heck......sad to hear

 

[crusse10]

anyone relating this death to Kiffin should reevaluate many things about their own lives

 

[ToptheTerrible]

He wasn't the first person Janzen Jackson murdered.

This is ridiculous. You do realize every walk of life be it lawyer, teacher, soldier, student, preacher has its percent of bad seeds. So athlete should be immune? Give me a break. Just stop it.

 

[ToptheTerrible]

Dear lord, what a shame. Hopefully the family can overcome their grief and Janzen can get whatever help he needs while in prison.

Another "really?" Post from VN. Trust me, you don't go to prison to get mental help.

 

[crusse10]

And hey, I'm not saying it's definitely this, but CTE has horrid effects. He was a guy who liked to lead with his head.

 

[TNnative]

Innocent until PROVEN guilty.

That being said, not looking good here. Too damn sad.

 

[ToptheTerrible]

anyone know of the motive ?

Playing time.....

Wait until our credit score turns into junk bond status. Economic collapse will happen then.

From the one article posted here, it sounds very different from the Aaron Hernandez and OJ Simpson cases. The Center for the Study of Traumatic Encephalopathy diagnosed a 17-year old player after he died following a game. It's possible, and I'd be shocked if it's not on the list for the defense.

"Jackson came to California and spent several weeks bouncing between his great-uncle’s house in Los Angeles and the apartment his mother and Herrera shared in Santa Monica.

Jackson had been talking to himself and acting strangely, his mother testified, leading her to call county mental health workers in August to evaluate him."

I wonder if he got evaluated? It looks like he's had Mental Issues for a while now. This is truly a messed up situation.

 

[KoachKletus]

Truly what this thread is all about. :hi:

I wonder if he wouldn't give up his cheeseburger?

I agree with what you say here except why start out with I bet you are a Christian. He may call himself one or he may actually be trying to follow Christ and may be somewhat misguided. You quote scripture but because someone posts something that you feel is non loving and mean (which it was ) then he must be a Christian.

Who is making assumptions and why? I guess it is popular to just attack anything with a Christian label on it. It made the rest of the good points you made not have the same affect as they could have had because it gave an impression of hate on your part before you started.

Feel better now? Apparently, I'm not allowed to have feelings or express them. OK, got it, being dead inside is better. Who knew?
