“The cop was so broken,” Adam McNutt said. He put one hand on Gabriel’s wound and the other around the officer’s shoulder. “I said, ‘Don’t blame yourself.'
“She said, ‘Gabriel, I love you. You’re my best friend,’” Adam McNutt recalled. “And I could hear on the other side of the door: ‘I love you, too, Catherine.’”
At his grandparent’s house on Elles Drive, Gabriel’s behavior suddenly changed. Athens police responded to the residence for reports of a juvenile threatening family members with weapons at around 2:15 p.m.“He had never loaded a gun in his life,” Adam McNutt said. “We actually don’t have any here. That rifle was given to my dad by my grandfather, and it hasn’t left that closet in over 20 years.”
“Our second day in India, he had a brain bleed,” Adam McNutt said. “We had to travel by car to another state to get him surgery. They had told us, even if he survives, he’ll probably be paralyzed and not able to speak. And like five days later, God just healed him completely. He was walking and talking.”
“They had to do radiation — he had already had brain surgery, and because of scar tissue and where it was, this was as good as we could do. It was OK for the first year aside from some very serious tonic-clonic seizures. And then after a year, just going through that, it developed into what’s called non-epileptic seizures.”
Mountain View Hospital kept Gabriel for almost a month. There, according to his family, his psychiatrist said the condition was physical. After his discharge, Gabriel went five weeks without another incident.“These last five weeks, God gave it to us and said, ‘This is your time. Make the memories,’” Adam McNutt said.
Saturday evening, the McNutts went to collect their children who had been brought from Athens to a friend’s house.
