Back home local news story.
I knew Jason (I notice they got his name wrong).
We hung out in High School and were part of the same crowd of gamers.
We joined the Army at nearly the same time and that's where I lost track of him.
Our paths had diverged so far that I didn't even think to reconnect on Facebook.
A mutual friend tells me he'd been having issues sleeping since getting out of the Army and booze was his sedative of choice.
He'd tried to stop drinking several times and attempted more than once to get help from the VA for the sleeping problem, only to discover he was in the "really bad side effects" group for the regimen they prescribed.
I'm left wondering if those side effects were in play in the hours preceding police intervention.
I don't know what I could have done to help, but I wish that I was able to.
