Maine shooting suspect Robert Card was struggling with his mental health and claimed to family he overheard people talking about him at the bowling alley and bar where he is accused of opening fire Wednesday, according to his sister-in-law.
“He truly believed he was hearing people say things. This all just happened within the last few months,” Katie O’Neill, who is married to Card’s brother, told the Daily Beast Thursday.
“He would get mad and claim that we didn’t believe him. We tried to listen to him and tell him that nobody was talking about him. Card – an Army Reservist who spent two weeks in a psychiatric facility this summer after reporting “hearing voices” – is currently facing eight counts of murder related to the shooting based on the bodies that have so far been identified, law enforcement confirmed at a press conference Thursday.
