Totally this. One of Peck's main points is that the "people of the lie" see what their child needs, and choose the opposite. This is evil in the context of child development, and exactly what we have here. There's nothing more egregious IMO than ignoring your son's explicit cries for help (seriously, how could he have been more explicit?), and prioritizing horses over taking care of him.Thank you to everyone for posting the daily updates! I have not been able to watch the trial and it’s very much appreciated.
Is anyone here familiar with the book by Dr. M. Scott Peck, “The People of the Lie: The Hope for Healing Human Evil”?
He recounts some cases he encountered as a psychiatrist where he felt he encountered true evil. In one family he worked with, the oldest son had committed suicide with a gun. The younger brother, Bobby, fell into a depression and started acting out. For Christmas that year, his parents gave him the same gun that his brother had used to kill himself. They had all kinds of excuses for doing that—for example they said they couldn’t afford anything else.
Basically, they were enabling Bobby to do the same thing his brother had done.
It gives me chills to think about and it’s what I think every time I hear that JC lied and said that EC’s friend had killed himself. Was she in a way giving the message to EC to do what she claimed his friend had done?
Hopefully, she is not pure evil, and I’m just glad she will never be able to have another child (due to her age)
I could be way off base, but wanted to share.
“Dr. M. Scott Peck brilliantly probes into the essence of human evil.
People who are evil attack others instead of facing their own failures. Peck demonstrates the havoc these people of the lie work in the lives of those around them. He presents, from vivid incidents encountered in his psychiatric practice, examples of evil in everyday life.
This book is by turns disturbing, fascinating, and altogether impossible to put down as it offers a strikingly original approach to the age-old problem of human evil.”

Oh, I see. Prosecution can prove JC was lying and thus impeach her testimony. They likely have many other examples.Scroll down to:

Teens do take empty liquor bottles from parents and display them in their rooms so the empty liquor bottle photoed by LE on the side of EC's bed could have been that or he could have been drinking from it?
When EC was sentenced Judge Rowe mentioned that EC had been caught on a hacked device(?) looking at violent pictures or a violent video, I forgot which one.
I found the info.
"He was given a tablet to use (to get his) GED (and) there are several reasons they're allowed to use it for. He was allowed to access the internet and he immediately went to a website that we know to be about real death, killings," Willis said.
If JC sticks to her original statement when cross examined by the prosecution regarding her communication with her attorney, will the prosecution then take action to interrogate Attorney Smith? And, if so, how would they do that? Would they impeach JC's attorney?Scroll down to:

That might be an issue for him until the end of time.
The prosecutor did mention the State Bar Ethics in regards to that.
I put my impressions in this post but they may be too harsh.

AFAIK the state cannot do that without causing a mistrial.
I'm confused on James' work history as well. I also thought she said he lost his job during Covid, but is this job the same job??? And he was doing DoorDash at the time of the shooting.
Thank you, thank you. Well said.I put my impressions in this post but they may be too harsh.
GUILTY - MI - 4 students killed, 6 injured, Oxford High School shooting, 30 Nov 2021 *Arrest incl parents* *teen guilty* #5
What do you think so far? She's not as nervous as I expected she would be. Yet, Smith's part is a cakewalk.
I do think Shannon Smith has done quite a good job with the image. She's only 45 and she's been dressed and presents as if she's much older. Granny Crumbley, favorite hobbies - board games, carving pumpkins, family camping trips and wholesome activities.
Hope that the jury had time to take notes with plenty of question marks and also reflect on JC's performance over night before the barrage starts up again on Day 7. ( Smith's antics might make it hard for jurors to focus on complex evidence and hold their train of thought because of all the small explosions, smoke and mirrors in the courtroom. )

I do think some people are missing a chip, grey matter…there are many theories. They are self absorbed & it’s very important their created image is upheld . Children are appliances that should -preform - to make the parent look good. IMO she gave up on him a long time ago. I know ppl of this ilk . They just busy themselves in things that support their ego. Maybe throw the disappointing child a bone once in awhile.
