Yes. Everyone thinks it won't happen to them until something does.
Said story a little too close to home.
This guy made local news a few weeks ago as he was being sketchy on the AT near here. Ultimately they let the guy go...then this happened.

I'm sure he'll get thrown into a psych ward and hopefully never allowed out.
