This is so dang 😔 😔sad I grew up watching bonanza and James coburn to present. I loved the tv show and mr. Coburn exactly. Never dissapointed. This show is so tragic. Mental illness has claimed more lives than any other disease (to be safe my opinion) there is help out there many lives have been spared. Sadly many missed due to multitude of reasons. Ross and Adam are long time friends as wife delphine. Ross' demeanor has changed significally over a years time noticed by Adam everytime he visits. Ross starts abusing his wife accusing her and Adam of trysts. Not. His jumbled mind starts illegal activities hiring undesirables. Actually the leader had principles not wanting violence unless .... Ross lost all his. I was glad Adam took her to the ponderosa! More tragic events where Ross abuses delphine, tears the place up and Adam finds her as she dies. Jesus. Ross goes on a killing spree ending his misery. For a moment we see Ross as the man he was. He lost time from his anniversary to his death ten months.

I'm so glad there is treatment out there. Still judgemental a.h.s (spelling?) Throw cheap shots and accusatory invective. I don't think it was due to any std I believe paranoid schizophrenia. One more thought dementia? Everso possible even in our young years.
