Killer who ate part of his victim’s brain granted supervised release from psychiatric hospital

A Connecticut man, Tyree Smith, was previously found not guilty by reason of insanity for killing Angel Gonzalez and consuming body parts.
The Psychiatric Security Review Board approved Smith's release after a psychiatrist reported that his schizophrenia, alcohol, and drug disorders were in full remission due to treatment.

Republican lawmakers, including Heather Somers and Paul Cicarella, referred to the decision as 'outrageous' and emphasized the potential risk to public safety.
