With the previously suppressed evidence now being admissible and with the mental health expert being called in, are we about to see Matthews plead guilty by reason of insanity?

I would say that's about the only chance he has. Although I really don't think he's crazy, just not very bright..

Sounds like the defense is trying every delay possible according to what occurred in court.

There was surprising animosity in court with Commonwealth's attorney Denise Lunsford accusing defense attorney Douglas Ramseur of using an unseemly strategy, the failing health of a lead detective, to stall.

"I really feel compelled to be here. I feel honor bound, this is part of my covenant with Morgan, that I was always going to be there for her," said Harrington. "I didn't think it would be in this way, but I will be here every time I can possibly be here.”

"I did look at him, [Matthew] I did not see him looking at me,” Harrington added. “He seemed like he was more alert he was more participatory in the proceeding than I have seen.”

Matthew took notes and spoke several times to his attorneys Monday.

There has been tons of new info released today (in addition to what was released yesterday) by Laura French. Is this being documented anywhere here? I can't seem to find a thread with this new info relating to the search warrants, etc.

It's being covered under the pre-trial motions thread.
 
So pleased for both sets of parents. Finally, an end.

Thank God he will never be able to do this to another woman or family ever again. These are terrible tragic cases just awful. R.I.P Hannah Graham and Morgan Dana Harrington you will not be forgotten.
 
I suggest that this plea deal event may be an example of the usefulness of the death penalty as a negotiating tool. A spokesman for the State of Virginia complained recently in the media that the State is losing access to the drugs used for lethal injection. This could indicate that those sentenced to the death penalty might end up riding the lightning. Being fried is unappealing. Without the death penalty on the table, there is no urgency for negotiation that could give some closure to the parents. He might have sat in prison for the rest of his life claiming he was innocent.

But perhaps I am incorrect, he comes from a fine family and perhaps they convinced him to pray.
