Man treated after attempting to nail himself to cross
HARTLAND — A Hartland man was treated at a Pittsfield hospital after he nailed himself to a cross. The 23-year-old man apparently was trying to commit suicide Thursday evening in his living room, the Bangor Daily News reported.
Somerset County Sheriff Barry DeLong said Monday that no charges will be filed. "There is no crime here," he said.
Police said the man appeared delusional and told them he had been "seeing pictures of God on the computer." He told them he had not seen the hit movie "The Passion of the Christ," which depicts the Crucifixion of Jesus....
Another example of how insane some of us can become in this country. This poor fellow needs some real professional help. I am sure this was not what Mel Gibson had in mind when making his movie.... nor was it that of the man for which the movie was a tribute!
