  This one search hit stood out. It's important to remember how tragic this was and that this guy is truly messed up:

  Tom Kelly had covered many grisly events as a photojournalist in Pennsylvania. He thought he had seen it all. On a spring day in 1978, Kelly responded to a call on his scanner that a man had taken his family hostage. Within minutes, he was on the scene, arriving to find that the police had surrounded a house where Richard Greist was holding hostage his pregnant wife and daughter, Beth Ann. Kelly instinctively began to document the events unfolding before him. He crept as close to the house as police would allow. The tension mounted. The front door to the house opened and out came the young girl, begging the police to not hurt her father. She was bloodied, with multiple knife wounds. Chief Detective Douglas Weaver rushed in and grabbed the young girl, quickly escorting her to safety. Kelly, although a professional, had been unable to bring himself to photograph the young girl until her face was hidden from his direct view. Concerned about the safety of others inside, the police were left with no choice but to storm the house. They captured Greist, but were too late to save the wife and unborn child. The terror was not over. Somehow, Greist freed himself and was just feet from Kelly, whose camera hung from his neck. Kelly does not remember taking the photographs of the charging murderer before Greist was again subdued. The chilling events ran across the Pottstown newspaper the next day. Kelly won a Pulitzer Prize for his work in covering the tragic events.

  I just want to remind everyone that if someone was psychotic that is NOT THE SAME as being psychopathic or paedophiliac.

  People who have suffered from psychosis have suffered a mental illness and it is not their fault if they commit bad things while psychotic.

  Having said this I appreciate that people can be fearful of mental illness, but the fact is that when such illness is being treated, the chances of being attacked by a mentally ill person is less than the chance of being attached by a normal healthy person.
