[@Thumpz42Oxxx]

[@NLMENTERTAINMENT]

Mental Health is Alive.. 🤦🏾

[@johnbaker7155]

Bakersfield Police Department needs to investigate for the obvious wounds on the defendants face.

[@rodriga1985]

What wounds?

[@xandriagomez92]

He said clearly bpd is the one who abused him around 6 minutes

[@strawbs2828]

Honestly awful that this interview was conducted. Such an obvious attempt at creating engagement at the expense of someone with mental health issues. Embarrassing for KGET and everyone that thought this was a good idea.

[@trippy4674]

I feel like the interviewer is just trying to get him to admit he had a weapon

[@fatman7064]

I believe that shit about the underaged prostitutes, Dejavu is maddd sketchy.

[@LaidbackAF]

I think he’s on to something, a lot of evil has been going on in Bakersfield

[@user-sg1ep9ts3r]

Idk what he did. But why isn't he getting any medical attention for all his injuries. Dang that looks painful it's not even covered bandaged up. Smh come on y'all

[@ireneruiz6508]

Police don't give a fuk about nobody

[@gabrielebianchi161]

I know people like this guy with mild versions of this mental illness, where they think people are following them or act real paranoid. A lot of people are losing the plot!!!

[@ireneruiz6508]

Yeah he's telling the truth

[@bradyholmes6242]

Interview over for it started..yall see that man crazy..He talking monsters

[@xandriagomez92]

Bakersfield is insensitive, cruel, racist, and unjust to the mentally ill. Like many other cities and states and also countries in other continents. They need support.

[@juan23wt3w5]

The guy interviewing is a vampire maybe too he want to hear wat he noes

[@JordanHolmes-y3j]

Bro just started yapping before he even sat down 😅

[@silentmajority8365]

[@Ricardo-f1w4i]

From reading some of the comments it sounds like more people need to be on meds and/or locked up. Just WOW!

[@deebee4575]

Why does this thing need to live?

[@ghostdog1676]

If this involves a cop yeah he got beat from them, he needs a good lawyer for those marks on him
