  • An Army trainee who left a base in South Carolina without permission last year and briefly held children hostage at gunpoint aboard a school bus has been found not guilty by reason of insanity. The decision agreed to by prosecutors, defense attorneys and a judge means the 25-year-old New Jersey man will be sent to a state mental hospital for four additional months of treatment.
