Parents say accused Pizzagate shooter had been traumatized in earlier car accident - (AP) ( pizzagate )

WASHINGTON — The man charged with firing an assault rifle inside a Washington pizza restaurant underwent a personality change after he hit a 13-year-old boy with his car in October, his parents said Monday.

Edgar Maddison Welch shifted from being energetic and outgoing to melancholy and quiet, Terri Welch and Harry Welch Jr. told The Washington Post at their son’s public defender’s office.

...

Harry Welch said his son felt guilty after the crash and worried about the long-term effects for the child, who had to be airlifted to a hospital with broken bones and a head injury. His parents said Maddison Welch began having nightmares but did not to seek help.

No charges were filed in the crash.

Ah, so they're painting the image that he's antagonized by his mistake and wishes to correct them by over protecting children. Probably the only correct thing I think I've seen them do throughout this whole operation.

Is it one car or two cars? Just asking because of that handkerchief email mentions it. Yeah, maybe it sounds absurd or out of place, but what is a car? It's just a reference to a pile in one car instead of riding in two different cars, gossip-wise. It suggests there are two layers of information happening in the same text, doesn't it?
