Ray’s mythology has two foundational elements: his victimhood as someone who is regularly poisoned, hunted, and betrayed, and his legendary background as a man connected to military and police. Both of Goicoechea’s parents died not long after he returned home. In the Veterhands post, he wrote that he “decided to take a year to address personal issues, and was fortunate enough to have a mentor to help me through processing those issues.” That mentor was Ray.
At Columbia, Goicoechea bonded with fellow veterans. Eric Hines, an Army intelligence veteran, said Goicoechea was the type of person who would always put himself last, “who would see your need for a shirt before you did yourself, remove his and insist that you take it.” In fact, he was at a Veterans Affairs hospital in the Hudson Valley receiving treatment for PTSD, according to John Williams, one of his closest friends from the Marines.
After leaving the New York hospital in 2019, Goicoechea went back to Oregon to crash with Williams. But in 2020, Williams and his wife took Goicoechea to a VA hospital, concerned by his increasingly erratic and paranoid behavior. Williams doubts his friend ever got the help he truly needed.
