"A psychiatrist who found notorious killers Jeffrey Dahmer, the Son of Sam and Andrea Yates all sane has concluded that the man who killed four Mexican nationals in Rifle last summer was legally insane."
I saw that snip at about seven a.m. this morning. I don't suppose that an explanation is necessary as to why I found it necessary to look this guy up. Guess what. He is a bad guy. Seemingly, a REAL bad guy. After the article are some url's detailing a little of what ELSE he has been up to over the years.

Man who killed 4 in Rifle deemed insane
3 psychiatrists agree; Steven 'Mike' Stagner won't face jury trial
By Ellen Miller, Special To The News GLENWOOD SPRINGS - A psychiatrist who found notorious killers Jeffrey Dahmer, the Son of Sam and Andrea Yates all sane has concluded that the man who killed four Mexican nationals in Rifle last summer was legally insane. The upshot is there will be no jury trial to decide if Steven "Mike" Stagner, 43, is guilty of first-degree murder and a host of other charges. Instead, District Judge Peter Craven will hear testimony Oct. 7-8 to determine if Stagner was insane at the time of the shootings and should be confined at the state hospital in Pueblo. The findings of insanity by Dr. Park Deitz of Newport Beach, Calif., along with two similar findings of Colorado state psychiatrists, persuaded Garfield County District Attorney Mac Myers to forgo a jury trial. "We have no evidence to rebut the insanity," Myers said Monday. "It's difficult with the horror of this crime, but the law is clear." Defense attorney Greg Greer, who had sought an insanity finding from the start of the case, waived Stagner's right to a jury trial. Stagner, who has a nearly 20-year history of mental health problems, suffers from schizo-affective disorder. It "significantly impaired his cognitive capacity to distinguish right from wrong" the night he killed four people and wounded three others, Deitz's report says. "The most salient delusion over the years has been that he is the Archangel Michael and that he is on a mission to rid the world of bad or evil people," Deitz found. Deitz's report detailed the chaotic course of Stagner's life in the days leading up to the shootings July 3, 2001. On June 27, he caused a disturbance in the VFW bar in Grand Junction, saying he could kill people and God would forgive him. On July 2, he asked an acquaintance to read him a Bible passage: "I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. With justice he judges and makes war." Stagner then thumped his chest with his fist and said, "That's me." Twelve hours before the shootings, Stagner caused a disturbance at a Grand Junction convenience store but left after a police officer was called. Stagner stopped at two Rifle bars and other businesses July 3, 2001, making threats and exhibiting strange behavior, such as sniffing his shoes. About 11:50 p.m. at the City Market in Rifle, Stagner fatally shot Juan Carlos Medrano Velasquez, 22, and Angela Toscano, 19. Officials say he walked across the parking lot and fatally shot Juan Manuel Hernandez Carillo, 44, and Melquiades Medrano Velasquez, 23. He reloaded, entered the park and shot and wounded Medel Ortega-Venzor, 24, and Efren Miramontes-Ortega, and then wounded Rudolfo Beltran-Perez, 29, authorities say.
