[drugawareness] Christopher Anson Brockman: Yet another very

sad and tragic and senseless death

 

 

It is with a great sadness I report to you the tragic death of Chris

Brockman. The story from his mother below explains what happened to

Chris - a story that has been repeated over and over aganin with these

deadly antidepressants. Chris was only 15 when he was given this

cocktail of drugs that caused him to act so completely out of

character in such a violent way. What we as a society have done to

children like Chris is reprehensible!

 

I would encourage you to send your condolences to his mother, Cynthia,

who joined us in Washington, DC last year to testify to the FDA about

the dangers of these drugs. She can be reached at the following e-mail

address: cab16 And for the handful of you who are still on

this list only to defend your use of these drugs I would ask that you

please leave Cynthia alone to grieve for the loss of her son.

 

In Chris' case I feel responsible in that I did not push even harder

for a supportive newsletter to go out to all of the kids stuck in

prison for using these drugs that were never approved for use in these

children. If this case stirs anyone to offer to help with this

project, PLEASE let me know. I DO NOT want to ever see another of

these tragedies happen again! The problem is that it is against prison

policy for inmates to correspond with one another. As a result there

is no way for them to be supportive or to obtain support from those

who understand what they have been through more than anyone else on

the planet. But they could get a newsletter that discusses what is

happening with the cases of others in their position. They could

follow the progress of appeals, etc. I think this might have been a

help to Chris so that he would not have felt so alone.

 

Cynthia, together we join in offering you our prayers of comfort.

Dear Cassie,

 

My sweet, precious son, Christopher Anson Brockman, passed away last

night. He had been so depressed and off of his omega-3-fatty-acid

found in fish oil for a few months.... I saw him last Sunday and he

was not himself. He hung himself last night at 6:52 pm....

 

Thank you for your prayers.

 

Love, Cynthia---

 

 

My 18 year old son is serving a life sentence for murder that he

committed while on Zoloft and Adderall and Risperdal. We grieve not

only the tragic loss of life, but also his life sentence for the

involuntary intoxication and akathisia adverse effects resulting from

iatrogenic phenomenom that caused him to be temporarily insane when he

committed his offense. We are on our second appeal request for a new

trial. We have post conviction new evidence that after having been

discontinued from the akathisia inducing Rx, akathisia symptoms

disappeared for almost a year only to reappear when Zoloft was later

readministered. We have no doubt that it was the doctor prescribed

medication caused the type of brain damage that destroyed his

cognitive and behavioral normal functioning.

 

We have and are continuing to suffer beyond description from the

medical malpractice and negligent prescription of SSRI's and other

medications at the hands not only of the free world doctor that

initially poisoned my son, but also at the hands of incompetent and

negligent doctors in the penal institutions.

 

When will the pharmaceutical killing fields be stopped? How many more

have to die as a result of these defective prescription drug products?

 

I am a religious volunteer who counsels inmates and am shocked at the

number of prisoners who have had catastrophic adverse and toxic

reactions to their medication which caused them to commit crimes. They

are experiencing some of the same Rx reactions while still on some of

the same doctor presribed drugs that sent them to prison.

 

I will write again.

 

God Bless You, Cynthia Brockman
