A Washington state man accused of killing his brother has been charged with murder after he allegedly drove a 4-foot-long sword through the victim’s head Sunday night.

Buckey Wolfe, 26, who prosecutors said appears to be mentally ill, called 911 around 6:40 p.m. and told an operator that he had killed his brother, and that he thought he was a lizard, according to The Seattle Times.

“The defendant’s actions — jamming the tang end of a four-foot long sharpened metal-bladed sword-like instrument completely through the victim’s head and killing him — demonstrate the danger he poses,” Senior Deputy Prosecutor Scott O’Toole wrote in charging documents obtained by the paper.

Wolfe told the 911 dispatcher, “God told me he was a lizard,” and “Kill me, kill me, I can’t live in this reality,” according to the documents.

Prosecutors said Wolfe told officers he suffered from schizophrenia. During the arrest he reportedly said “that (the officers’) eyes and mouths were changing” and apparently thought they were turning into lizards.

On a Facebook page identified by KIRO as Wolfe’s, Wolfe posted Jan. 1, “I will dash you lizards to pieces like pottery and scatter your bones to the winds!!!!!”

Citing allegedly mental health issues and the violence of the crime, Judge Arthur Chapman set bail at $1 million, according to KIRO.

The hell did those lizards ever do to him?

Again.
We really need better mental health services.

“Kill me, kill me, I can’t live in this reality,”

Then he should have killed himself, not the lizard.

Again.
We really need better mental health services.

And if he refuses those services? Sometimes no amount of help works if the person won't do it.
We need more involuntary services, not just more funding and more beds.

Imagine the implications if, just if, he was right.

Proud Boy Buckey Wolfe was judged to have committed the murder, but was acquitted by reason of insanity. The judge recommends confinement because he poses a substantial danger to public safety.

Proud Boys membership is minor stuff compared to his incurable mental disturbance.
