Peter van Agtmael
USA. Shelton, Washington. 2019. Chuck Coma suffered a hypoxic brain injury after his cellmate strangled him at the federal penitentiary in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, depriving his brain of oxygen. Since then, he has suffered from memory loss, extreme mood swings, and occasional tremors, and the brain damage is likely irreversible. At the time of his incarceration, Coma had been battling severe PTSD from his military service in Panama and the Gulf War. Before the wars, he’d been a bit of a troublemaker but had no serious run-ins with the law. When he left the service, he couldn’t hold down a job and started robbing banks. As part of the getaway plan for his last robbery, he drove his car through a chain-link fence that led to the Puget Sound and emerged from the car in a full scuba suit. A cop tackled him before he could get into the water.
