An Absolute Classic Antidepressant Case:
“And I’m talking to him and telling him, ‘I’m sorry you’re feeling like this, but can you just talk to me?'” But he refused.
Delacruz said that Tello stood up and looked at himself in the mirror before reaching under the mattress and pulling out a gun.
Tello turned from the mirror, cocked his gun, and pointed it at her.
“You’re not going to shoot my baby,” she told him. But before she could push him away, the gun went off…
“Then I turn around and I see my son,” she continued. “My son is on the floor and he’s turning blue.”
https://thestir.cafemom.com/
Both of these cases are classic antidepressant-induced REM Sleep Disorder (RBD) cases which I discuss extensively in my book on these drugs. It was not until a 2003 New York Times article that I learned of Dr. Carlos Schenck’s work in documenting the link we had discussed in 1992 between the SSRI antidepressants and RBD which I was seeing so often in these cases. I learned in the article that Dr. Schenck had gone back through his records and found that about 45% of the patients his sleep disorder clinic had diagnosed with RBD were on antidepressants.
Those results were high enough that he felt they should investigate that link further and launched a study to address the link directly. What they found in the study was an astounding 86% of the patients diagnosed with this most deadly of sleep disorders where you act out nightmares in a sleep state were taking antidepressants (80% on SSRIs & 6% on the tricyclic antidepressants)!
This should not only be a Black Box Warning on these drugs but should also be headline news worldwide! And yet it has now been over a quarter of a century since I first sounded the warning in my book about this most deadly side effect and testified to the FDA about it in 2004. All while we still wait for any warning to patients or an unsuspecting public who could be put in danger at any time like these two families have been!
And we still wait for research to be done on how often this is found in abrupt or rapid withdrawal from these drugs since it has LONG been known as an a drug withdrawal state! If Dr. Schenck found 86% of the cases involve those taking an antidepressant, just how high can it be expected in withdrawal from these drugs? The question the whole world deserves an answer to!!!

Remembering Columbine & the Forgotten Survivors – 21st Anniversary
Although Mark Taylor was dubbed the Columbine Wonder Boy by the media when Columbine happened because he survived being shot 6 – 13 times by Eric Harris & spent all he had in a lawsuit against the drug maker of the antidepressant Eric was on that caused Columbine hoping to put and end to the school shootings, he has remained in a facility being drugged for a decade with the very drugs he was blowing the whistle on. All because of an ANONYMOUS call to report that he had made a threat to blow up a book store. Visions of Nazi Germany?
Richard Castaldo, who appeared in Michael Moore’s Bowling for Columbine with Mark & was parallelized in the shooting while eating lunch with Rachel Scott, is now homeless & in a nursing facility recovering from MRSA. Both boys still carry bullets lodged in their bodies from that day…see all the evidence in videos below that Columbine & the majority of school shootings since were caused by the adverse effects of antidepressants… https://www.9news.com/article/news/local/next/columbine-shooting-richard-castaldo-homeless-colorado/73-a7a6f52b-8a96-4dcb-a320-e9c870b3ff02
All the while people wonder why 21 years later these shootings continue. All of the videos & information below will explain that the reason they continue is the media has refused to carry the real story about how & why Columbine actually happened & why they have worked so hard to keep Mark Taylor quiet after he got so much attention telling the FDA that the Pharmaceutical giants need to be considered “terrorists” & while antidepressants need to be considered “accomplices to murder.”

The following article really is NOT an article from the Onion, the publication that puts on seemingly ridiculous articles that appear to be real news. Sadly, this one is real! Hopefully St. Louis is in complete lockdown and stay far away from anyone diagnosed with Covid19 who may be part of this study!
Ironically just yesterday I spoke with a prison chaplain in Utah who called to tell me that for years he had wondered why a particular prisoner he had come to really respect was even in prison, much less serving such a long term. He finally decided to ask the prisoner. He was shocked to learn that as a youth this person was part of a research study on an antidepressant in Provo, Utah and as a result killed two people!

Please note that at the end of this article is a phone number and email address to contact this research team. I encourage all of you to call or email your response. Here is my letter in reply:
I have served as the expert for Columbine survivor Mark Taylor in his lawsuit against Solvay Pharmaceutical’s Luvox from early on in that mass killing when Eric Harris shot Mark 6 -13 times and 12 of his classmates and a teacher were killed. Here Mark is letting the FDA know what he thinks of their lack of oversight at the 2004 FDA hearing on antidepressant safety: https://www.drugawareness.org/mark-taylors-testimony-before-the-fda-9132004/
And since I have been testifying as an expert in these antidepressant-induced criminal cases since 1992 I have no doubt whatsoever that I will be seeing you in a courtroom soon!!! Just the Prozac-induced murder case of Alyssa Bustamante, 15, who killed her 9 year old neighbor girl right in your backyard should have woken you up years ago https://youtu.be/13_797rv3qI

FAILURE TO WARN OR TO TEST: RACE & METABOLISM DETERMINES TOXICITY
The 1997 wrongful death case in the murder/suicide of Reynaldo Lacuzong & his two sons raised the issue of Asians & missing safety studies & lack of warnings for Asians & other races which have similar issues with metabolism. Over two decades later there are STILL no warnings about the lack of safety testing for several races known to have issues with being able to metabolize these antidepressant drugs. That metabolism issue can cause toxic levels for them very rapidly. If I recall correctly with Raymond Lacuzong it was not long after taking his antidepressant that he attacked co-workers & then returned home where he drowned his two young sons, 5 & 9, & himself in the same bathtub!
Now besides Asians not being tracked in the clinical trial safety studies, there was no tracking or coding done on Hispanics, Indians, Native Americans, Samoans, Melanesians, aborigines, Incas, or South Pacific Islanders! This is a very critical piece of information for all those of these races/nationalities to use in court cases.
You can find this legal documentation & a news article on that case in our database of documented cases here:
People of Asiatic descent have been “hit hard” by adverse reactions to SSRIs.

New York Machete Attack & How Antidepressants Cause Violence
A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF HOMICIDAL IDEATION: Florida Man ‘Looking For Someone To Kill’ Intentionally Ran Over Veteran With Car
“I am a veteran of 15 years. I have seen the disasters from prescription medications especially the ones we were issued to treat PTSD and other mental illnesses. A couple of years ago, I agreed to take Zoloft as suggested by my doctor for depression. I had denied it for years.
“Within 2 days I was truly suicidal. I wanted death bad. It wasn’t like the normal suicidal thoughts where I felt so depressed I would rather be dead, it was more like I wanted death like I wanted a new Ferrari. But not just for me, I wanted it for everyone! I wanted to get my friends together and thought let’s all die together. I have been confused by how this drug can make you feel this way. I certainly felt why so many commit suicide on these drugs and why it is a listed side effect! I tried to OD, but I sucked at it fortunately. I never touched another pill again.
“I got out of the Army last year and have been on a spiritual journey for myself.” … C. C. D.
“I am Mark Allen Taylor and I am a victim of the SSRI antidepressant era. I took six to thirteen bullets in the heart area in the Columbine High School shooting when Eric Harris on Luvox opened fire that now infamous day.
They almost had to amputate my leg and my arm. My heart missed by only one millimeter. I had three surgeries. Five years later I am still recuperating.
I went through all this to realize that SSRI antidepressants are dangerous for those who take them and for all those who associate with those who take them.
I hope that my testimony today shows you that you need to take action immediately before more innocent people like me, and you, do not get hurt or die horrible deaths as a result.
As Americans we should have the right to feel safe and if you were doing your job we would be safe. Why are we worrying about terrorists in other countries when the pharmaceutical companies have proven to be our biggest terrorists by releasing these drugs on an unsuspecting public?
How are we suppose to feel safe at school, at home, on the street, at church or anywhere else if we cannot trust the FDA to do what we are paying you to do? Where were you when I and all of my classmates got shot at Columbine?
You say that antidepressants are effective. So why did they not help Eric Harris before he shot me?
According to Eric they “helped” him to feel homicidal and suicidal after only six weeks on Zoloft. And then he said that dropping off Luvox cold turkey would help him “fuel the rage” he needed to shoot everyone. But he continued on Luvox and shot us all anyway.
So, why did these so called antidepressants not make him better? I will tell you why. It is because they do not work.
We should consider antidepressants to be accomplices to murder.”
WARNING: In sharing this information about adverse reactions to antidepressants I always recommend that you also give reference to the CD on safe withdrawal, Help! I Can’t Get Off My Antidepressant!, so that we do not have more people dropping off these drugs too quickly – a move which I have warned from the beginning can be even more dangerous than staying on the drugs!
The FDA also now warns that any abrupt change in dose of an antidepressant can produce suicide, hostility or psychosis. And these reactions can either come on very rapidly or even be delayed for months depending upon the adverse effects upon sleep patterns when the withdrawal is rapid!

Man intentionally hit veteran with car because he was ‘looking for someone to kill,’ authorities say

Fox News Flash top headlines for Jan. 10 are here. Check out what’s clicking on Foxnews.com
A Florida man intentionally ran over a 75-year-old Vietnam veteran because he was wanted to “see what it’s like to kill,” authorities said Friday.
Justyn Pennell, 21, of the Tampa suburb of Hudson, called 911 Thursday afternoon to say he just hit a man with his PT Cruiser. He told Pasco County Sheriff’s investigators he intentionally hit the man and didn’t stop until his vehicle stopped working less than a mile away, WTVT-TV reported.
Pennell said he saw the unnamed victim, a grandfather and veteran of the Vietnam War, walking along a roadway with a walking stick and made a U-turn before accelerating and running into him. He confessed to deputies at the scene, authorities said.”While he’s driving at his victim, he could see the look of fright on the victim’s face,” Pasco County Sheriff Chris Nocco said during a Friday news conference. “This man is absolutely evil.”
“There are some cases … that make us realize there are evil in this world,” Nocco added. “Because of the pure evil that happened yesterday, there’s a 75-year-old man, who’s a father, a grandfather, a Vietnam War veteran, who was killed.”
He said the act wasn’t random but the victim was. Pennell faces a first-degree murder charge.
He admitted to having thoughts of killing someone for several months and left home with the intention of looking for someone walking or biking on the road to kill, according to the news outlat.
Investigators don’t believe Pennell was under the influence of drugs or alcohol at the time of the incident. He has no prior arrests, authorities said.
He is being held without bond in the Pasco County jail.
