I knew him back before he walked on at Auburn, and he used to dabble in psychedelics from time to time. Not saying that's the case here, but it sounds like a psychotic reaction to something.
You may be on to something:
quote:
Connor Fraley, a 20-year-old student, said he was a passenger in the truck that had been driving behind Bironas on Battery Lane when he and others in the truck noticed a burning smell coming from Bironas' vehicle.
"His window was down, and we pulled up and I said, 'Hey man, just a heads-up, something's burning from your exhaust. Your exhaust smells horrible, just wanted to let you know,' " Fraley recalled telling Bironas. "He looked over at me and said, 'I'm going to kill everybody in your (expletive) vehicle.' It was so random, so bizarre, I was like, 'What?' And he said the exact same thing again."

I've heard that smoking bad meth can smell like burning pastic.

He encountered the students shortly after leaving his home. He was probably driving with the parking brake on or something... possibly revving the shite out of his gears. He chases the students around and then heads home... Crashes a short distance from his house.
The one article mentions that one of the students was on the line with 911 for the majority of the time Bironas was fixated on them. That should be interesting.
I think that he had probably been in a depression realizing his career was ending. May have caused a psychotic break of some sort. Wife may have seen some hints of strange behaviors leading up to this whole thing but not really put it together entirely.
A couple theories/possible factors:
1. He may have planned the movie night so there would be a friend there to "distract" his wife so he could pursue another agenda. Likely extreme paranoia had been building (suspicion of something occurring while he was out of town trying out for the Lions the day prior).
ETA: She may have been passed out as well at some point and not realized how much time had passed between him saying goodnight and him leaving. eta; He says goodnight at 9:30...she zones out but thinks it was for only a moment...
2. He may have actually damaged his brakes to the point of being useless at some point early in the drive. He leaves the house to "blow off steam" and not let his fairly new wife see that side of him... Mean-mugging people a non-verbal "Don't you know who I am!?!?" thing. Feeling like an idiot for trying to drive with the parking break on not helping his ego... Then is unable to slow the vehicle before it's too late.
