CO - James Holmes Trial Discussion - Begins April 27, 2015 # 9

Good summary! I don't know what purpose def. keeps beating on the mental illness that was diagnosed by THEIR (hired guns, IMO), now after the murders. It really doesn't connect for me that was the case on 7/19 & 20, nor does it connect that he was legally insane at that time. I hope the jury doesn't see a connection either.

Wait a minute! Don't we still have questions from the jury at the end of Reid's testimony???? That will be very revealing!!!!

They keep on saying schizophrenia when Dr Reid didn't diagnose that. They are trying to confuse the jury into believing JH was diagnosed with schizophrenia. Very sneaky!

anyone waiting for one of those female defense lawyers to put their arm around jh? That's another def. trick for the jury.
Wait for it.

I'm not sure he would like that very much. They might not try it just in case he freaked out. Can you imagine?!

I'm really impressed with Dr Reid. He's got an amazing memory for a 70 year old!

King argues that Holmes' fears of being followed by FBI vans is a delusion -- characteristic of schizophrenia? Maybe. #theatershooting

Does anyone know what mistake they are referring to about Lynne Fenton and a prescription?

I agree 100%..He's sharp as a tack!!! Knows his stuff too. I think Dr. Reid, tho won't say it..that there is much evidence that JH is malingering periodically, embellishing symptoms then contradicts himself later with something that he doesn't even realize it actually undo's his efforts in that particular symptom....LOL Obviously JH hasn't done his homework as he hasn't been consistent.... I do believe tho that he has exactly as Dr. Reid described..Schizotypal ..
Anyway..Dr. Reid has honed his skills..and hasn't become a dottering old man like King was trying to suggest with his veiled questions about age discrepancy with the other Dr.'s!!

I think Dr Reid already confirmed his belief that JH isn't a malingerer.

I really like this Dr and as someone said yesterday, if I was mentally ill I would want him to treat me.

Me to as Dr. Reid treating myself or family..He's as honest as the day is long..

I know he said..no to malingering but I think he's suspicious..however this Schizotypal personality disorder fits him to a "T" and wouldn't say Malingering..but these people (JH) often behave that way too..so refused to call it actual malingering since he can't prove it..and we all know he wouldn't say or diagnose something without being sure....I trust Dr. Reid very much!!

Hi folks,

Just calling in to say Hi. Newbie to this thread and to this trial but fascinated by the videos recorded by Dr Reid. Equally I am appalled by a few sites that I came across of people supporting him as if he is some kind of victim and philosopher with something worthwhile to say.
Must admit I am surprised by Reid's opinion that JH is not malingering at all. Especially seeing as he misdiagnosed himself as having so many disorders in his notebooks and because he has to dress everything he did as something it is not. ie. A mission was a vengeful reaction to various rejections IMO
