An insanity plea? Isn't Stary only relying on medical records?
the thing is. .. I don't know what the Police Prosecutor has in hand........ the 'medical' stuff is Stary's card to play........ Maybe the DPP has a royal flush....
An insanity plea? Isn't Stary only relying on medical records?
e'The defence counsel for Maria Cardamone said the killer had influenced his mother. His mother was labouring under a false impression that her son was not responsible for this horrendous crime, Rob Stary said. She was vulnerable and susceptible to his influence.
and that's why Stary costs a lot of money....... if the Judge, Mullaley believes this, it's money well spent, I suppose..... if not..... well......bon giorno, Maria.
e
She was not labouring under the false impression that he did not commit the crime. She has been protecting him and excusing his crimes for all of his life. I do get the thingo that mothers want to protect their sons, but if your son murders or rapes, I don't get how that mother can keep supporting him, to the extent that you would murder someone else to keep your son's awful deeds from coming to light. At some stage, don't you have to come to the conclusion that your son is a murderous bad man?

Prosecution and defence both agreed the 127 days Maria Cardamone served in custody so far is an appropriate total sentence. @bordermail

Maria Cardamone will be sentenced in Wangaratta court on September 22 for her role in hiring a hitman. @bordermail
Next hearing Friday 22nd September 2017.
"About the same time as her arrest in May, Maria Cardamone was diagnosed with depression and dementia.
Mr Stary said she planned to live at a Melbourne aged-care facility when released.
He and Mr Moore agreed the 127 days in custody served so far was an appropriate total sentence."

It may be true that Maria Cardamone has dementia, but I am skeptical.
BBM: Has this diagnosis been made by an accredited Aged Mental Health [ACAT/APAT] Assessment Team? or was it made by the local General Practitioner?
We trust that Justice Mullaly will consider this diagnosis put before the court to 'excuse/minimise' some serious allegations. My opinion only. :thinking:
Exactly, Oona. Will her lawyer also claim that dementia made her harbour her parolee rapist son?I think the diagnosis was made by her lawyers, if you know what I mean [emoji6]
It certainly seems convenient timing and one would think Maria's dementia was not an issue when her son was paroled to live with her.
