MENTAL HEALTH ISSUE, OR CRIMINAL MIND?

A lot of attention has been given to the mental state and capacity of those caught in criminal act recently, take for instance the recent shooting at Louie’s on the Lake and school shootings across the country. But do studies really support the conclusion so many are quick to make, that mental illness is to blame? Research seems to indicate there may be more at play, and before we jump to a quick conclusion it is better to take a more in depth look at what is really happening. Things like substance abuse, antisocial traits, depression, personal grudges, and triggering events all come into play.
