Reply #30: Yes, he should.

Anyone who can take another's life without batting an eyelash definitely needs mental health services, and I hope he does get help.

from the article:

"Did you feel bad when you are doing it?" Messner was asked during questioning.

"Not really, no," he replied.

He didn't feel bad then, but he does now. He has been in juvenile detention for eight months, locked in a small cell and occasionally allowed to go to class.

Messner and his attorney said he has already learned his lesson and is ready to go home to help others.

I would love to know exactly what lesson he has learned, besides the one about jail being hard.
