I believe the “possibility” as you put it is real, I’d go as far as saying it’s likely.

My related question is, do people that have these issues get held accountable for their actions, or do they get a pass?

Some will say “it depends”.

I believe it’s extremely rare that someone with mental illness has zero control over what they do, IMO mental illness gets used way to often as an excuse for bad behavior.

As I stated up thread, dangerous to self or others = removal from society until you are no longer a threat (even if that’s the entire rest of your life).

Due process should be afforded to all, but the process should absolutely happen.
Agree with every point.

He's far from the only narcissistic player in the NFL. ;) My point is, he went from "typical NFL starter" to "crazy, and growing disturbingly crazy" shortly after a very serious concussion. Related or not? No way for us to know for certain. Anyone who just dismisses that possibility is naive as hell, though. :)
It could be anything - syphillis CTE brain injury that’s run of the mill drugs - the possibilities are endless. Maybe it’s all of them. Maybe none. The easy play is CTE - but he’s not your average lunatic -

Dude is a dipshit, and if he "might" have CTE maybe he should take responsonility for his own actions. Maybe having some mental issues is no excuse to be a douchebag, or to try and kill someone.

Go ahead and white knight for the dude, I couldn't give two shits, lol.

ETA* I'm just here to talk shit.
No one is saying he shouldn't be accountable. No one is making excuses.

The speculation that a head injury is part of the story is pretty reasonable.
