[SuziQ]

No brain damage or associated psychosis.

 

[SuziQ]

Cobbins failed to answer questions on standard test.

 

[SuziQ]

State basically saying....how do you know Cobbins told the truth.

 

[SuziQ]

Narcissistic. Displays a sense of self worth. Superficially charming and use skills to manipulate others. seeks to exploit others.

 

[lizzybeth]

The prosecution is asking all the right questions. He's tearing down everything the defense built with this man.

 

[SuziQ]

Relationships to enhance to inflate his own grandiose sense of self.

I love that this is being brought up before he testifies.

 

[SuziQ]

If his self image is threatened...he acts out....sexually......

in other words he did what he did so he wouldn't look bad. Sacrificed others for his own self preservation....my words.

Psych - Cobbins "potentially" have casual sex with stranger to boost his ego

Psych - Cobbins a narcisist. He loves himself!

On at least one test signs Cobbins tried to flunk it but psych says overall results solid

 

[SuziQ]

He was defiant in school. IMO, Not the actions of a follower.

 

[SuziQ]

He's an instigator with many problems with other children.

 

[SuziQ]

Psych will not admit that this indicates independence.

So I take it as Cobbin's was a bully in school, and thought he was above authority.
