Minnehaha County, South Dakota - A man accused of stabbing his friend with a combat knife earlier this month was high on L.S.D. at the time of the attack, according to a criminal indictment.
The finding was noted in an indictment secured for 25-year-old Brady Richard Holter, who is alleged to have killed Alexander Peter Rodriguez after a bad reaction to drugs he was using, authorities say.
Holter was indicted on charges of second-degree murder, three counts of manslaughter and unauthorized ingestion of a controlled substance. He could spend the rest of his life in prison if convicted of the murder or manslaughter charges.
Holter is being held at the Minnehaha County jail on a $750,000 cash-only bail
On March 5, authorities were called to an apartment in the 700 block of South First Avenue for a man who had been stabbed.
Court records say an officer who initially responded to the call found Holter when he entered the home. The officer told Holter he was there to investigate a stabbing. Holter told the officer that no one had been stabbed.
“Officer Meyer noticed that the defendant’s hands had blood on them,” the documents say. “When asked about the blood, the defendant replied ‘I stabbed him’.”
When asked why, Holter said that Rodriguez made him mad, court records say.
Authorities found a man trying to render aid to Rodriguez, who was laying on his back inside of a walk-in closet, according to court records.
Rodriguez was taken to Avera McKennan’s emergency room for treatment for a single stab wound to the upper chest. He later died.
A witness who was at the home told authorities that Holter gave him acid earlier in the evening. The witness said they also smoked marijuana.
Minnehaha County State’s Attorney Aaron McGowan said a large number of homicide cases have a drug component. The most common drugs that his office comes across in these cases are methamphetamine and marijuana, he said.
Yet, in some cases, multiple illegal drugs factor into the incident.
“LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide) and heroin were not commonly found in Minnehaha County over the last few decades, but we have seen an increase over the last year,” McGowan said.

Who says it was even LSD? And yes, he wanted to murder his friend and thought "temporary insanity" something along those lines. Fucking hell...

One side of the discussion thinks drugs can only be bad. Another side thinks they can only can only be good. What if we are impartial.
Magicians have used hallucinogens with the express intent of doing harm. So, even if you believe that something powerful is occurring -- a dissociative state is neither good nor bad.
Without the stigma attached, the details may be exactly as described.
