By Raisina Correspondent
New Delhi, January 4: The Las Vegas Cybertruck blast and New Orleans attack on new year have revealed growing concerns in the security establishments of the mental health conditions of the military veterans. In both the cases, the deceased men at wheels had been associated with the US military.
The security experts are further alarmed by the fact that the Las Vegas Cybertruck blast suspect Matthew Livelsberger, 37, had just been a normal security person on leave from the service. He even took part in a military TV reality show on the History Channel.
Two days after he shot himself dead after a meticulous planning which led to the Cybertruck blast outside a Trump hotel in Las Vegas, new footage have emerged which show Livelsberger at a Tesla charging station on his way to Las Vegas. He expertly erased signs on tail of truck to escape any scrutiny on way to Las Vegas, said security experts while examining the footages.

But Livelsberger had no linkages with any terror outfits. He was just another military veteran, said experts, adding that Livelsberger’s mental health conditions had not been attended to adequately. The CBS News in a report said that “decorated U.S. Army Special Forces Master Sgt. Matthew Livelsberger sent a disjointed email on the morning of New Year’s Eve to Samuel Shoemate”. The recipient of the e-mail is a retired Army intelligence officer and also a security commentator, added the news report.
Livelsberger wrote: “I needed to cleanse my mind of the brothers I’ve lost and relieve myself of the burden of the lives I took.” He reportedly had sustained brain injuries during his participation in the Middle East conflicts as a part of the US military deployments.

Also, the US between 2001 and 2021 accounted for a death toll of 2,459 military personnel in Afghanistan. Besides, 20,769 military personnel in Afghanistan deployment had also been wounded in action.
The CBS news quoted former girlfriend of Livelsberger, saying that the Las Vegas suspect had “suffered a traumatic brain injury while on deployment in the Middle East”. The report said that Alicia Arritt “exchanged around 30 texts with Livelsberger in the days leading up to the bombing”.
Livelsberger had packed the Cybertruck with firework mortars and camp fuel canisters. The blast left seven injured. Livelsberger in a note recovered after the blast stated that his action was meant for “wakeup call as US while being terminally ill is headed toward collapse”.
