Watched this last night, crazy story. Remember when the axe part happened, found out about the other stuff later.

I am just curious if experts in behavioral health could diagnose and thought there was any type of medicine that could have helped him.

Also, I am now curious if on the appeal if they ever looked at his mental health and used that as a defense.

I just know a lot of homeless folks suffer from mental health and not sure anyone/anywhere tries to actually help them.

Also, good documentary to reinforce how scummy Hollywood people are.

While being interviewed (and they knew the whole story), they were more remorseful that they missed their chance on cashing in on Kai vs. maybe that he was suffering from mental issues and it was more important that he could use some help in life (before things like Kimmel and Kardashians).

If they did that, perhaps, Joseph Galley would still be alive and still be able to solicit gay runaways in NYC for cash (funny how the history of him doing that was conveniently omitted from the documentary).

Just finished it.

Mental health man, it’s important. He for sure murdered that guy. This guy was just unwell. Maybe he got a tough upbringing and that messed up his psyche going forward, but he should’ve swallowed his pride and sought help. I don’t believe for a second he was traumatized as a child, he just grew up in a nontraditional home and I know that messes some kids up.

Just watched it. It was decent

Man, that reporter who got the first interview really had an inflated view on how famous Kai was, like he was almost on the level of an A-list celebrity.

He acted like he had all this insight into who Kai was when in reality, he only met the dude twice

Watched it this weekend. I'm as big of a true crime fan as anybody, but this one was kind of lame. 90% of the movie was just telling about who he was and that he was really odd. They could have spent 30 minutes on that. Instead they spent an our on it and 20 minutes on the murder and 2 minutes on the trial.
