Estranged from his family, mail bomb suspect Cesar Sayoc Jr "found a father" in President Donald Trump
Ronald Lowy, a lawyer representing the family of Cesar Sayoc Jr, said the family believes that he has been mentally ill for 20 years
Cesar Sayoc Jr, the 56-year-old man arrested in Florida in connection with a mail-bombing campaign aimed at critics of US President Donald Trump, is mentally ill and estranged from his family, according to a lawyer representing his mother and stepfather.
Miami lawyer Ronald Lowy said that Sayoc Jr has listed as his address the Aventura condominium where his mother and stepfather reside but doesn't live there, TC Palm reported.
“Cesar estranged himself from the family years ago, has no communication with his father for decades, has told his mother that he hates her,” Lowy said. “He doesn’t seem to recognize reality. He lives in a fantasy world.”
