2.2 million people suffer from schizophrenia in the United States. You have a one in a hundred chance of encountering one on any given day. Most are non-violent people struggling with a debilitating disease, but for a small percentage of these people, the voices in their head can lead a handful of them down a path from which there is no return. We discuss the cases of Vince Weiguang Li, Alton Nolen and Derek Ward. All three of these men decapitated their victims, with a complete lack of empathy, while undergoing a severe psychotic episode. The brutality of their attacks are unimaginable.
