Pick a syndrome man, pick a syndrome and stick to it..

He omits to mention how convenient the drop off place was to her motel..
Carry on..

Also that it was dark, and they had had an unexpected dry spell, she was expecting the water level to be higher and for it to carry Gannon off out into the gulf never to be seen again.

That's why she wasn't lying when she told Al she didn't know where he was, because she thought he was gone.

Tolini is now talking about Dr. Lewis, the defense’s psychiatrist who conducted a sanity evaluation on Stauch. Tolini said she’s 85 years old, and has been researching people with mental illnesses for decades. “She was groundbreaking in her field,” said Tolini.

Tolini said Dr. Lewis has more expertise on this subject that anyone else in the country. He admitted that Dr. Lewis confused some things with her memory during her testimony. “I’m not disputing that… Do not discount her decades of her experience. To not discount her expertise.”

Tolini said that Dr. Lewis said, “Mrs Stauch is one of the most mentally ill people she’s ever dealt with.” Tolini said, she didn’t endorse that it was Maria who did this. What she said was that Stauch dissociated the memory of the homicide because she can’t bear to deal with it.

Pick a syndrome man, pick a syndrome and stick to it..

Why? T hasn't.

She's got them all. Just no one of them all the way to the diagnostic threshold.

You are going to garner zero sympathy for LS, Tolini. Stop, just stop.

 

[Megnut]

"This  thing that happened to Gannon"????

Tolini said Stauch cannot accept the idea that she committed this brutal, horrible homicide. “To accept the fact in her mind would crush her, would crush her soul, would crush her identity. So she’s trying to come up with another fantasy of what happened.”

Hang on so he just ignoring the DID with Maria the assassin, Taylor the valley girl and jetpack James pr whoever it was and now saying she's NGRI because of BPD?!

Tell that to Jodi Arias who is the poster girl for extreme BPD

AND IS STILL 100% GUILTY

I'm not recalling any of the three Court Ordered evaluators from CMHP (Torres, Gray, etc) diagnosed LS with BPD.

I recall they opined she showed characteristics of borderline personality disorder as well as narcissism but she did not present with sufficient criteria for a medical diagnosis of the same.

Correct?

Sometimes when I watch a trial, the defense's closing statements make me a little nervous.
This guy? Not even once. Not even a hint of a hint of nervous.
This guy couldn't convince me water is wet.

 

[kittythehare]

DID well discredited, better pick another-
chocolate box
PICK ONE.
Stop reading.

I'm just hearing burrrrrrrr burrr burrr..

Who wrote his speech?

 

[arielilane]

Defense attorney Josh Tolini began his closing argument immediately saying the state cannot come up with a motive as to why accused stepson murderer #LeteciaStauch would kill her stepson Gannon in 2020. "Brutal rage," Tolini said describing the death of Gannon.

[Amster]

Did anyone EVER say the killer was abused by stepdad?? Did mom?

 

[nonniecita]

"This  thing that happened to Gannon"????

The thing that happened to Gannon was T.

He called Gannon's murder a brutal "attack" earlier.

 

[arielilane]

Prosecutor Dave Young wrapped up his closing argument by urging the jury to convict #LeteciaStauch of all charges. "There's only one right verdict," Young said. "Guilty." Stauch is on trial for killing her stepson Gannon.

lol... did Tortelini even hear the good Dr. Lewis on the witness stand?

Maybe he had toilet paper in his ears.
