Illinois Man Charged with Reckless Homicide After Killing Three
Via Quad-Cities Online in Illinois:
Earlier this morning, Judge Ted Hamer of Henry County Court District in Illinois charged a twenty-year-old man with reckless homicide and aggravated driving under the influence. The driver is connected with three previous deaths which took place in November of 2012 during a car accident.
While it was first unclear whether the driver was having seizures or huffing, it soon became clear to authorities that he was abusing inhalants. A toxicologist confirmed the man was huffing using various pieces of evidence such as the weight loss in the can discovered at the scene, and the driver's history of "blacking out."
The driver could face anywhere from six to twenty-eight years in prison, with a possible but very slim chance of probation.

Alabama Man Attacks Police Officer With Scissors After Huffing
Via WBRC in Alabama:
A man faces two attempted murder charges after
an alleged huffing related incident.
Earlier this month the man’s parents went to
his house and called the police after they could see him lying unresponsive on
a bed. When a police officer and fireman approached the man’s body, he jumped
up and attempted to attack them with scissors.
The article notes neighbors reported the man
as being a good person and that “huffing may have changed his personality.” The
police detective makes a good point about inhalant abuse- "It was not only a danger to yourself but as we can see in
this case you can be a danger to other people,"
