| Ex-OH Physician Sentenced in Explosives Case |
| 2010-11-29 |
| Mark Campano was sentenced in Cleveland federal court 19 Nov to 52 months in prison after changing his plea from not guilty to guilty in September 2010 on one federal count of possessing unregistered weapons. He was initially arrested in 2009 after law enforcement was called to investigate 2 explosions in his apartment. A local paper not online gave more information: on the first call officers found 35 pipe bombs, 17 rifles and pistols, 2 homemade silencers, and thousands of rounds of ammunition. An assistant US attorney quoted Campano as saying he was "suffering from paranoia and began making the bombs and acquiring the firearms for protection, because he was concerned about the collapse of our country, Armageddon and the need to protect himself." The Ohio State Medical Board removed his license to practice medicine in 2006 due to Campano's history of drug dependency. I dunno. The volume of materials found at his apartment, no stated visible means of financial support, and his drug history looks more like an illicit business operation. At least he's out of circulation for a while. |

| #3 A GIS of this guy, and one look says psychiatric case, big time. He probably had natural paranoia until he started taking drugs, which turned it acute. It would probably be highly entertaining to hear his EOW kookdom. The ironic thing is that the majority of clinical paranoids are completely defensive; they wouldn't dream of attacking someone. But if you broke into their lair, it's like sticking your hand into a wolverine's nest. Literally, they will often booby trap their own domicile. And they are not particularly careful how they handle stuff like explosives. It is the sort of place you back out of, slowly, trying to step where you stepped before. A paranoid physician? That could be very, very bad. |

| #2 Only a matter of time til they do. Hopefully the weak-knees in DC will be gone by then and we can have a proper expedited pathway to the Terre Haute gurney for all involved... |

| #1 Let us hope guys like Campano don't get together with would-be jihadis like MoMo of Oregon. |
