#DonaldSmith was sexually aware at the age of 5. Sometime between the ages of 7 and 10 he was put on Librium, a sedative. By the age of 13 he was participating in voyeurism and public masturbation," Dr Colino testified.

Colino: day to day, #DonaldSmith wasn't adjusting bad behavior. Had a heart attack and did crack cocaine a month later- common sense says not to do that #CherishPerrywinkle

Deformation can be seen in #DonaldSmith's hippocampus. That controls behavioral inhibition, response inhibition or the "slam on the brakes" response of the brain. It can affect learning from negative experiences. Dr. Colino points out Smith's continued drug use post heart attack.

Defense: these abnormalities are not something anyone has a choice about? Colino: No. Formed before puberty. #DonaldSmith #CherishPerrywinkle

Brain sections that are abnormally enlarged are Thalamus (arousal and aggression, cognition, decision making) Hippocampus (inability to suppress strong desires, inability to learn from negative experiences) Putamen (associated with violent, malicious crimes) #donaldsmith @FCN2go

"It's as incontrovertible as anything in medicine," neurologist testifies about brain scans. #DonaldSmith's brain shows some sections "vastly" atrophied, others abnormally large, all in keeping with his impulse control problems, dr testifies @FCN2go

Would #DonaldSmith learn from being thrown in jail on prior sexual offenses? "Not with a brain looking like this or if he does not learn from that, this explains why.”

#DonaldSmith had some sort of trauma or something to the brain, a forensic neurologist is testifying. Drugs? Bike accident at the age of 9? Car accident later? Perhaps all of the above.

Colino says it's "clinically probable" #DonaldSmith has CTE, could mean violent behavior, episodic rage, light/sound sensitivity. #CherishPerrywinkle

(Just FYI:

Chronic traumatic encephalopathy

"Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a neurodegenerative disease found in people who have had multiple head injuries.[1] Symptoms may include behavioral problems, mood problems, and problems with thinking.[1] This typically does not begin until years after the injuries.[2] It often gets worse over time and can result in dementia.[2] It is unclear if the risk of suicide is altered.[1]

Most documented cases have occurred in athletes involved in contact sports such as American football, wrestling, ice hockey, rugby, and soccer.[1] Other risk factors include being in the military, prior domestic violence, and repeated banging of the head.[1] The exact amount of trauma required for the condition to occur is unknown.[1] Definitive diagnosis can only occur at autopsy.[1] It is a form of tauopathy...."

“In the case of Mr. Smith, that cable, if you will, is so frayed and stretched to be nearly non-existent. He can’t control his behaviors," Dr. Colino said of #DonaldSmith 's executive functions or impulse regulation portion of the brain.

Dr Colino wrapped up his testimony with an analogy of a bike brake. He said the cable ( think hand brake on a road bike not a beach cruiser) is so frayed that it is non functional.
"He can't control his behavior," Colino said of #DonaldSmith

"As a human being I may have said yes, maybe not fully processing the question because I had the flu, yes.” said Dr. Colino of the misstep. #DonaldSmith

Nelson is zeroing in on inconsistencies btwn Colino's deposition and testimony, specifically that he previously said heart attack could cause an abnormality on brain scan. Colino said he had flu and limited time to prep for deposition #DonaldSmith #CherishPerrywinkle

Nelson points out where Dr. Colino mentioned #DonaldSmith's history of psychosis, but Smith has never been diagnosed with a psychotic disorder.

He said he never reviewed the transcripts. This expert said #DonaldSmith had a history of psychosis. Nelson is refuting that saying of all the people who have examined/diagnosed Smith have never said psychosis.

Dr. Colino also brought up #DonaldSmith's history of violent behaviors. He does not remember speaking to this, court reporter is now searching the transcript for context.

Nelson- you said executive functioning is impaired, which includes decision making. Does that include the decision to deceive? Colino- yes. #DonaldSmith #CherishPerrywinkle

Can't control his behavior, yet he can turn on the charm when it is to his advantage.
