Kuachua Brillion Xiong was sentenced to two years in prison after he was caught driving to Washington, D.C., with a carload of firearms and a "hit list" that included the president.
There’s no mention of a lawyer or any support, the guys just completely dropped himself in it. Perhaps a very low IQ or some sort of mental health problems that prison is really not going to help.
Is a low IQ correlated to a person’s propensity to commit violent acts? As a person with low IQ, I don’t feel like prison is either less of a deterent from committing crimes, or less likely to be a reforming experience, but I’ve never been to prison and recognize that my impressions would only be an anecdote and not something to draw conclusion from.
I honestly do not know how IQ and the ability to judge the future outcomes of ones actions tie together.
I do know that confessing to crimes, and then saying that he’ll try to commit those same offences upon release is not a very sensible idea if he values his freedom from prison. On the otherhand perhaps the guy thinks his being a martyr for the cause and his openness will encourage others, time will tell.
It’s kind of a shame, dude is clearly mentally ill but there’s no mention in the article of any attempts to treat it. Just straight to jail. If anything it’s just going to worsen in prison and probably end up murdering someone and/or getting murdered.
It sounds like he needs mental help.

This is far from normal behaviour.
