So Nurmi paid the murderer a visit today. Looks like he didn't bring her a cinnabon. 1 hour with her and I bet he came out thinking "one more week with her and I am done". Done"
He's already done. A defense attorney in a death penalty case who is committed to "represent" the wishes of a client who has stated publicly that she wants death. And now he has to get up and present mitigation factors?
How about the most obvious one? Impaired judgment, which is a symptom of her lifelong Borderline Personality Disorder, which the prosecution has presented.
If I were her attorney, I'd argue that much of her behavior demonstrates this impaired judgment, such as lying when the truth is obvious to everyone and then illustrate this with examples: gas cans, hair color, gun theft, sending of flowers to grandmother.
Her inappropriate behavior such as sleeping on Travis' lap in a public place, accusing the victim of a horrible crime of pedophilia without a shred of evidence, giving a long interview immediately after being convicted (against attorney's advice) and telling people that have the power to kill you that you want to die even when you don't.
My son with schizophrenia has a delusion which he calls IU, which he defines as opposite speech. If you give him a compliment, he glares at you because he knows you mean the opposite. When he says something mean about the food I've prepared, I have to shrug it off because if I ask him, he'll just say, "Oh, that's IU, but you already know that." Why do I know that? Because part of his delusion is that I am the one person in all the world who decides what words mean, like a queen. And when I die, he will take over for me."
Thanks to all the people who have emailed me or posted with words of comfort and appreciation. I don't know what a "friend" request is, <modsnip>.
