Common cases of somnambulism rarely get into the press: people perform some very simple actions that are quite characteristic of the individual. However, sometimes such lunatics appear that it is simply necessary to tell about them. Such characters are able to show behavior of high complexity right during sleep, but they themselves do not remember anything about their actions. Murders, robberies, walks with crocodiles - look what poor sleepwalkers are capable of!
Kenneth Parks
The unfortunate Canadian fell ill with sleepwalking after losing his job. Relatives did not attach much importance to the problem and in vain: on May 23, 1987, Kenneth, without waking up, got behind the wheel, drove to his wife's relatives (about 20 kilometers), where he shot his mother-in-law and her sister. Then the poor man came to the police with a confession - all this in a somnabulous state. Psychologists and the court confirmed that Kenneth committed all crimes in a dream.
Jay Horras
Attacks of sleepwalking haunted the girl from childhood, but they began to manifest themselves most actively already in adulthood. Jay went out at night and offered sex to strangers. Strange, but no one refused.

Timothy Bruggman
Timothy tried to cope with insomnia with the powerful sleeping pills of the Ambien brand. Interestingly, preliminary studies confirmed the development of sleepwalking in patients who took the same sleeping pill, but the man did not pay attention to it. In the winter of 2009, Timothy the somnabula left the house and froze to death in a snowdrift.
James currens
James's family has long ceased to be surprised by his antics: about once a week, he could get up at night and go for a walk around the house. Once James surpassed himself: a frightened guy was found in a swamp by the police - he fought off crocodiles with a cane and shouted at the top of his voice.
Jules Low
This strange story would never have been believed in Russia. Jules Lowe went overboard at the party and fell asleep … and then got up in his sleep to rape an unfamiliar girl. The culprit was inevitably so prudent that he even put on a condom! Psychiatry saved the guy from prison: the doctors conducted a full examination and proved that he really was not aware of his actions.
Leslie Cooper
Many promise themselves not to eat after six, and Leslie is one of them. She even partially fulfills her vow - partially, because she has a habit of getting up at night and preparing herself something tasty. All this without opening your eyes!
Robert LeDrew
And here is the most surprising case. Robert LeDrew was a brilliant 19th century French detective. At the next investigation into the murder, he discovered a whole bunch of evidence: the criminal managed to shoot his toe. And all would be fine, but only Robert himself woke up in the morning in a bloody boot and with a pistol. It turned out that he is the killer! Robert's sleepwalking was caused by severely advanced syphilis.
