This web site is dedicated to my brother Larry Robison, and to the families of his victims. The state of Texas refused to assist my mother in obtaining proper long-term mental health treatment for Larry Robison. Treatment was denied due to Larry not being violent.

Persons with certain types of schizophrenia may become violent after having gone without treatment for long periods of time. This happened to Larry who in the midst of an extreme psychotic episode killed five people. This is the one and only act of violence Larry ever committed both before and after the incident. Larry Robison was sentenced to death and executed on January 21, 2000, despite pleas from around the world to spare his life. Please don't believe that this could not happen in your family. Our family has learned the hard way that it happens more often than you think! ~~ Vickie Robison-Barnett

TO THE VICTIMS FAMILIES

I embrace you with all of God's love and power to heal you from the pain, hurt and sorrow you have suffered. Mere words will never express the agony that I feel inside for you. I do not know why this tragedy happened and all of our lives have been forever changed. There are times that life offers us no rational explanation for such things. I do not want to intrude in your lives, but I do want you to know that I would like to reach out to you if you are willing. I place my plea to you here in hopes that you will see it and will contact me. I am grieving with you and for you.
