To the Editor:

It’s a pathetic situation when an obviously demented individual — Ramiro Ortega-Hernandez — who believes he is “Jesus” coming again, this time to destroy the Anti-Christ, “President Obama,” is criminally charged by the Eric Holder Justice Department.

This poor individual previously went public with his hallucination, going as far as to petition Oprah Winfrey for an airing.

Ramiro Ortega-Hernandez is being charged with allegedly firing shots at an empty White House, while President Obama was thousands of miles away.

Ramiro Ortega-Hernandez, the Idaho man charged with firing those shots at the White House, is obsessed with the president, according to the man’s father.

This is so sad, when an individual in serious need of psychiatric help is being made the central figure in a criminal action, better labeled a circus.

I ask you, Eric Holder — is this just a distracting tactic to keep eyes off your idiotic “Fast & Furious” weapon sales to Mexican criminals? Please call off your justice wolves and get this poor individual some serious medical attention. It is, after all, a medial situation, not a criminal issue.
