More on Dr. Cunningham- in Steven Hayes trial:
"..With red pointer in hand bouncing across page after page of a PowerPoint presentation projected on a courtroom movie screen, Cunningham spent the entire day on the witness stand trying to convince jurors that Hayes would be likely to have "a positive adjustment," free of violence, if given a lifetime prison term.
Hayes' defense team hopes Cunningham's testimony will help persuade jurors to vote against executing Hayes for the July 23, 2007 killings of Jennifer Hawke-Petit and her daughters, Hayley, 17, and Michaela, 11, at their Cheshire home...
Hayes' defense team had asked Cunningham to conduct a violence risk assessment of Hayes. He testified that he received $300 an hour for 50 hours of work. Cunningham said he has testified in about 100 state death-penalty cases...
"Being convicted of a murder doesn't make you more likely to commit violence in prison," Cunningham said. "Murderers look just like the other guys they are side by side with."

Sounds just like the blah, blah he is spouting in this trial.
Wonder if missy :jail: will have someone like this in the retrial??
BTW: Hayes was executed.
