An actor who appeared in small roles on Better Call Saul and Longmire has confessed to posing as a wounded veteran in order to book more work after severing his own arm during a “psychotic episode.”
Todd Latourette, of Albuquerque, New Mexico, made the startling admission during a recent interview with the local news station KOB-TV. Latourette, who says he has bipolar disorder, told the outlet the injury took place 17 years ago, during a period when he was off his medication.
“I severed my hand with a Skilsaw,” he said, explaining that he later cauterized the wound. “The state of my mind was a psychotic episode.”
Latourette went on to land parts on the small screen and in the 2009 George Clooney film The Men Who Stare At Goats. He was most recently seen in season 4 of Better Call Saul.
