Thank you for your work, @Cindizzi ! Hope your appointment goes okay and you get a gold star (and that the stethoscope isn't too cold!) Between us all, we should be able to make note of the notable things, so don't fret.I’ll be posting as many tweets as I can up until the lunch recess.
Then I have a doctor appointment . So if LS or Maria takes the stand this afternoon and I can’t be here with you all, you can thank me and my rotten luck for making it happen.
I’ll be here in spirit.

She is and that is sad. What in samhill were they thinking? They knew all along she wasn’t fit to support a defense or a prosecution. This is probably why they snuck her in for that three hour interview. To remind her what she said in her report.Dr Lewis is an embarrassment to the defense team and to her profession.
moo
She was being flippant when she said "magic" and I loved that Young just accepted it as her answer and ended the day there.Honestly I couldn't believe my ears when she said magic
Like whut
Actually, in the stuff the judge read to her the other day when talking to her about her rights around testifying or not testifying, I'm pretty certain that he mentioned potential jury questions being part of it. He has to review them with counsel to make sure they're allowable questions to ask, as he has every other one, but I'm sure they were mentioned.I’m guessing that if the Defendant takes the stand, the Jurors won’t be allowed to submit questions for her like they can with other witnesses??
Can you imagine! what they would ask !

Well, that was an excellent 2nd post!Hi this is just my 2nd post but I’ve been lurking here for a while and made an account because I have sooo many thoughts I want to share on this case.
Truthfully, I’m astounded that Dr. Lewis actually got the impression that T was “very smart.” I don’t think T is necessarily unintelligent, per se. In terms of her IQ, she is probably about average, possibly a little above average. She’s not super intelligent, but she is blindly confident in herself and very verbose. Confidence or arrogance, as well as wordiness, can come off as intelligence to the average person. But Dr. Lewis is a psychiatrist, not the average person. She should know better.
People who are truly very intelligent don’t brag about their own intelligence, because they have nothing to prove and don’t need validation from others. Their intelligence speaks for itself. T talks a lot about herself and how great she is because she’s insecure and wants people to think she’s smart.
Narcissists not only think they’re smart; they think they’re smarter than literally everyone else. T was smart enough to attempt to cover her tracks, but her downfall was thinking that everyone else would be too stupid to see through her BS. I bet she has been absolutely stunned learning that multiple agencies were onto her the entire time she thought she could get away with it.

If LS testifies, I'd like to see all those you mentioned get up and walk out of court and refuse to listen to any more of her lies.If Letecia testifies, I would really like to see Landen, Al, Al's wife, Landen's aunt Veronica, Al's Mum and any other family members from both sides sitting together in the front bench holding hands, showing love and solidarity in their quest for justice for Gannon, in short GannonStrong at its most powerful.
I just decided to give the documentary a gander myself, and what’s remarkable to me are the similarities between her handling of the Shawcross case and this case. While she’s on the stand for the Shawcross trial, she becomes flustered during cross examination because the judge only wants her to answer with yes or no. Then she says to the judge — “he lied” (referring to the defense attorney re: neurological testing) and I can’t offer my true opinion without the test results.
Well that sure sounds awfully familiar, doesn’t it? Is that some sort of known tactic with her? If things start going south and she begins to appear not quite so professional and/or believable she claims that she didn’t know about the tests and therefore can’t offer her opinion?
I’m guessing that if the Defendant takes the stand, the Jurors won’t be allowed to submit questions for her like they can with other witnesses??
Yep, they could indeed ask questions. It was in the little 'sermon' which the judge gave to LS yesterday, telling her about testifying - or not.Can you imagine! what they would ask !

I have to admit I'm incredulous that 2% believe that garbage. Is that her aunt?
