[Seattle1]

Thanks @Seattle1 - for all that info! Will update my notes - and see you around 8/26 - or maybe later, as I am flying to Sweden on the 27th! Vacation time!

Good on you @Niner -- have fun with your sister! I too will not be available but not for fun -- I have a surgery scheduled.

I expect the Court will rule to give MC 90 days to respond based on the earlier Order for BPO's plan (See post #583). This will push the matter out to November before any hearing possible.

Also, there will probably be another joint motion filed about excluding periods of delay pursuant to 18 USC§4241(d) and Excluding Time to 18 USC §3161(h)(l)(A) as to Matthew Taylor Coleman relating to the Speedy Trial Act. In other words, doubtful you will miss anything while you are on vacation.

How Far Down the QAnon Rabbit Hole Did Your Loved One Fall? | Psychology Today

This is MOO. I've said some of this before, but I still think it's true. I don't want it to be forgotten that he fed his mind on conspiracy theories to the point of insanity. The two precious children ended up dying a horrible death because he gobbled up those theories thinking he was getting extra special revelations.

Some of his friends voiced their concerns that he increasingly sought out what he began to believe were the real truths. Don't overlook the fact that this has happened to others. People have lost their loved ones to cults and far fetched conspiracy theories.

Many times we might determine whether a person "heard voices telling them to do something", and we call that "mental illness". What if the "voices" he heard were those from the conspiracy theorists, groups like QAnon or the Illuminati, some call them cults, and he sought those voices out, more and more often? Perhaps to the point of madness?

He did confess, and he did say he knew what he was doing was wrong, but he had to "save the world". Fancied himself obtaining special info, fancied himself a world hero. Is he going to suggest he was brainwashed? He knew what he was doing and that it was wrong. He was following through on his beliefs that someday his children would be monsters. MOO, his beliefs were certainly what was wrong, and he let them override all else. I don't doubt he ended up insane, but I can't overlook that he took himself there. All MOO​

I don't know if the rules would be the same with Federal cases but I just learned in the Boulder, Colorado King Soopers mass shooting, the defendant here has been housed at the State Mental Hospital located in Pueblo for a couple of years where he's been forcibly medicated after refusing to take anti-psychotic medications that doctors say treat schizophrenia.

However, in preparation for his trial set to begin with jury selection on 8/26, the defendant recently traveled to Boulder to attend pretrial hearings. When in Boulder, he's housed in the County jail where reportedly, he's again refusing to take the anti-psychotic meds. But unlike the state medical facility, jail deputies do not have the authority to forcibly medicate the defendant.

In Coleman's case, they are currently waiting on a proposed treatment plan by the BPO to restore MC to competency to stand trial (due 8/26). The Court earlier ordered MC to receive involuntary meds at the hospital.

What a travesty if these defendants are forced meds at the medical facility but when they return to jail to stand trial, stop taking the meds, and the jail deputies don't have the authority to forcibly medicate the defendant.

Sounds like it defeats the purpose of getting him back to "sane".... they SHOULD have authorization to force meds on him. Guess we will see what happens after 8/26.
