'Better Call Saul' actor lied about being a veteran after cutting off his own arm

yikes

“I severed my own hand with a Skilsaw,” LaTourrette told the local news station. The actor, who said he has been diagnosed as bipolar, declared that the self-inflicted injury occurred 17 years ago when “the state of my mind was a psychotic episode.” During this period when he wasn’t taking his prescribed medications, LaTourrette planned for days before cutting off his lower arm and then cauterizing the wound. He later created a prosthetic to “look normal.” And eventually he started telling the war-injury story to get acting work.
