An Elk Grove Village man suspected in a plot to firebomb dozens of Oklahoma churches last fall with Molotov cocktails is unstable and has battled bouts of mental disorders and depression throughout most of his life, his aunt said this week. “When we visited him (in jail) he was unable to finish his sentences,” Weiler’s aunt, Joanne Meyers, said while crying.
