Bang! The Curse of John Wilkes Booth....

[LincolnMan]

JWB is looking old and he gets around, indeed. Last night I was asked to do a psychiatric evaluation on a patient in the emergency room. Upon arrival to his bedside, I found the gentleman to be dirty, disheveled, and smelly. That is not unusual. What was unusual was what he said to me (and was the only verbalization he made). He said: "I am John Wilkes Booth."
In my career, I have had delusional patients tell me they were Michael Jackson, Prince, and other famous persons. I have never had a pateint claim to be JWB. He was subsequently psychiatrically hospitalized. It was unclear whether or not he had shot Lincoln as yet-but he sure looked like he might have spent time in the swamp already.
