There are a lot of potentially violent events that are quietly prevented every day that most people don't hear about.

"mass casualty event" at Tesla headquarters in Texas during a Cybertruck promotion attended by Elon Musk, prosecutors said.

The suspect also appeared to object to technology in modern life.

“I wanna die. My thoughts haven’t been free for over a year. All the electronics around me,” he wrote, according to the arrest warrant.

Will not be convicted but will be committed.

[–] TangledHyphae@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

What do you mean "committed"? To a mental institution or a prison?

[–] roguetrick@kbin.social 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

It's a mixture of both. Called a forensic psychiatric hospital.
