Either the bathsalts shit was just not showing up in his system (if, as Wolf says, it can keep someone derailed for a week or more this seems a possibility) or he had an underlying psychiatric condition. The fact that he had pot in his system doesn't mean it was pot that made him eat a man's face.

Nah, pot in itself probably isn't what did it, but I wouldn't rule out the pot being a factor. Pot can lower inhibitions in some people. And there's been word this guy wasn't entirely right in the head well before all this, but he didn't want to get help for it. Given that, his head probably wasn't right to have those kinds of chemicals in it at all. And if he had smoked pot, I somehow doubt it was his first time.

I guess what I'm saying is, based on what's publicly available about him and the situation, I don't think all the behavior he exhibited from the first reports of him swinging around naked on lampposts up until he was finally shot dead would have happened if he hadn't had psychoactive chemicals in his brain, whether it was the first hit or a slow build-up over time. I kinda wonder what he'd have been like if he had gone on a booze bender.

Maybe he was insane, and the pot was an attempt to self medicate. Maybe the insanity caused him to steal the face right off that dude's head. Maybe the pot had nothing to do with it.
