Above link....a new psychologist the defense wants to testify in Carters upcoming trial. Dr. DiCatalado, said 'teenagers are not as capable of understanding their actions compared to adults".
The defense wants the doctor to speak about the "adolescent versus adult mind".
" DiCataldo said he'd provide an understanding of the adolescent mind that's more than what a layperson knows, the report said.
He was quoted as saying: 'Generally speaking, an adolescent would be less capable than an adult of understanding or appreciating all of the potential ramifications of their actions.
'They would have an underdeveloped ability to appreciate the consequences and understand what the risks are.'
The judge did not immediately rule on if DiCataldo can testify, the Herald (news) reported."
NOTE....the doctors name is Frank DiCatalado (see picture) and her attorney's name is Joseph Catalado. I will assume the names are correct but awful close.
Last month Dr. Breggin was brought on to testify that Carter was not responsible for her friends death because of "anti depression medication she was taking which would alter her brain." The Judge was to rule allowing or not allowing Breggin to testify.
Judge now has 2 rulings to make on these doctors testifying or not. No time was set as to when he would give an answer.
Defense is trying to get anything to stick to get Carter off the charge of murder.
There is more information in the article.
