You may well be right, but I suspect that it will be in keeping with Molly's personality to want to take the stand, and even to insist upon it despite legal advice. I could be quite wrong, but that is my feeling.I agree...just as she has a right to defend herself...I only ask because I'm curious...phrased another way ...in dealing with an adult child with mental illness, how long do you think a diagnoses applies if there has been no treatment for a long period and that person appears to be functioning fairly well?...as far as taking the stand I don't think she will...IMO....
As I said, a very difficult position for her lawyer, as he cannot prevent her from doing so, even if he advises her not to do it.
As for Tom, not a hope that he will take the stand, he knows how counterproductive it would be.
