-Caveat Lector- The "mind controllers" in Arizona must be working overtime ! There are plenty of *strange* incidents happening there. Here are a few : ======= JUDGE LACKS OPTIONS, SENDS SCHIZOPHRENIC TO PRISON : DISTURBED KILLER SAID STATUE ORDERED DEATH OF ROOMMATE ARIZONA BUSINESS GAZETTE, FRIDAY November 16, 1990 Page 21 TUCSON - A Pima County Superior Court judge said he was forced to sentence a man who suffers from schizophrenia to prison because the state has no long-term treatment facility. Superior Court Judge Lawrence Fleischman on Nov. 13 criticized the state for having no place to lock up and treat a man who pleaded guilty to manslaughter. Philip Carolin III, 30, was sentenced to 10 years in prison. He was convicted after he admitted killing the victim saying he did so on orders from a statue of the Virgin Mary. Mr. Carolin, who suffers from hallucinations and delusions, will be eligible for parole in about three years, because he has received almost two years' credit for time already served. Judge Fleischman said he would like to have sent Carolin to a mental health treatment facility instead of to prison. Last December Mr. Carolin pleaded guilty to manslaughter for the March 1989 shooting death of Neil Mylo Thormodsgard, who was killed as he climbed a ladder to the roof of a shed, where the two men lived. Mr. Carolin said he thought Mr. Thormodsgard was going to get an automatic rifle he kept on the roof and that a statue of the Virgin Mary in the church he went to daily told him to kill Mr. Thormodsgard. After Mr. Carolin was placed on medication at the state hospital, he reported that he no longer heard voices and had stopped announcing the second coming of Jesus, as he had done before. ----------- 'I BELIEVE YOU'RE GOING TO DO IT AGAIN' MENTALLY ILL KILLER'S CASE FRUSTRATES AUTHORITIES ARIZONA REPUBLIC, SUNDAY December 16, 1990 by Peter Aleshire- The Arizona Republic Page number A1 With the voice of the Virgin Mary echoing in his tormented mind, Philip Leonard Carolin III crouched over the bullet-riddled body of Neil "The Nudist" Thormodsgaard. Four bullets from Carolin's $69 .22-caliber handgun were lodged in Thormodsgaard's body. One had neatly pierced an eye. Carolin, an untreated schizophrenic, beaten child, wife beater, Chosen of God, Keeper of Law and Order, and homeless crazy person, finally had crossed the line. He had killed a man only slightly less deranged than himself: Thormodsgaard, also a schizophrenic, had a long history of arrests for running naked through his neighborhood and brandishing firearms. Carolin, 30, told police he had killed the former merchant seaman on March 6, 1989, because he feared Thormodsgaard was going to get his semiautomatic rifle and shoot Carolin. Carolin said he was acting on behalf of the police and the Virgin Mary. The killing focused the attention of an until-then indifferent judicial system on Carolin's 15-year descent into madness. But, even then, experts could not figure out how to help or punish this tormented schizophrenic. A frustrated judge ultimately sentenced Carolin to prison, knowing that he won't get the treatment he needs before he is eligible for parole in 1994. "I believe you're going to do it again. And then who are we going to look to?" Judge Lawrence Fleischman of Pima County Superior Court asked Nov. 13 as he sentenced Carolin for manslaughter. ======= SLAIN TEACHER NEEDED HELP: HE THOUGHT AUTHORITIES MONITORED HIM WITH ULTRASOUND Phoenix Gazette, THURSDAY, February 23, 1995 by Richard Ruelas, THE PHOENIX GAZETTE Page number B1 Mesa - He was convinced they were listening -- taping his conversations to spread rumors that he was gay and to get him fired from the elementary school. John Ferguson banged on a back door and broke out a window of a condo he was convinced housed the ultrasound equipment that recorded his every move and utterance. Ferguson, 36, was shot to death Wednesday by a Mesa police officer who claimed the third-grade teacher threatened him with a knife. Ferguson apparently refused friends' advice to get psychological help, said Kim Moody, a close friend since 1989. Ferguson had been on medical leave from Jefferson Elementary School since January. Officials wouldn't comment. But Moody, executive director of an art gallery, said Ferguson asked for the leave, saying he didn't feel he was fit to be in the classroom. Ferguson spent most of his leave at home, weaving paranoid fantasies, Moody said. "He stayed at home and fixated. He'd mull it over and build the picture up," Moody said. "He said he was being bombarded by ultrasounds, that they were listening in on him -- they being some sort of . . . police listening in on him." ======== JURORS REJECT DEFENDANT'S 'PREACHING' : MAN FOUND GUILTY OF TRASHING CLINIC Arizona Republic, Thursday, February 27, 1997 by Jim Walsh, The Arizona Republic Page number B1 A man accused of trashing a Tempe abortion clinic used his trial as a platform to liken the medical procedure to Nazi Germany's genocide against Jews during World War II. But Maricopa County Superior Court jurors found Brian Charles' arguments irrelevant to the criminal charges and found him guilty Wednesday of aggravated assault, burglary, criminal damage and misdemeanor assault. "In general, I don't think he addressed the issues at all," said Chuck MacGillivray, the jury's foreman. "He seemed intent on preaching his point of view." Smashing computers inside the Planned Parenthood clinic and terrorizing employees is "not the proper way to express yourself," he said. Charles, 29, went into the Tempe clinic on Sept. 10, 1996, and asked about the cost of an abortion. "You could see this evil come into his face," testified Joy Whalen, who was a receptionist at the clinic. "He took The Club and yelled out, 'Well, there will be no more abortions here today!' " Witnesses said Charles started swinging the metal automotive anti-theft device wildly, punching dozens of holes in walls, smashing computers and telephones, and ripping apart a supply closet where Whalen and Mara Anaya, another employee, were hiding. "Legalized first-degree murder, legalized genocide . . . is basically what this case is all about," Charles said during opening arguments as he acted as his own attorney. "A whole generation of our people have been systematically eliminated from the land," he said. Judge Mark Armstrong is scheduled to sentence Charles on March 31. Fred Charles, the defendant's father, asked Armstrong to sentence his son to medical treatment for schizophrenia. Fred Charles said his son suffers from hallucinations, hears voices, has delusions and believes God is telling him to act irrationally. Brian Charles has rejected treatment for his mental problems in the past, his father said. "It's like a buzzing, interference in their minds," Fred Charles said. But Armstrong said that under the law, he has no choice but to impose a prison sentence of five to 15 years for the burglary and aggravated assault charges. Armstrong said he plans to have the prison sentences run concurrently. After Charles serves at least 85 percent of his prison time, he will be placed on probation for four years and be required to undergo mental health treatment, the judge said. <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
