I totally agree! This is just crazy ---- think all murderers have PTSD :panic:

I think it is another version of the same old story that the devil made 'em do it... :P

Poor thing, poor McTear. Do they have prayer groups in prison where they can beat the living ptsd out him on a daily basis?

That has me cracking up! :floorlaugh:

I think solitary would be better though, as to not hurt anyone else.

I am still cracking up! :floorlaugh:

I get so sick of people being allowed to use how they were brought up as an excuse for how they behave. I can tell you my life story, but I will spare you the details and not go there. We can CHOOSE to be who we want! and not let our circumstances control who we are! End of rant!

Well good for her, she is partially responsible for this monster.

maybe Dr Gold can offer her some free counseling while McTear is on death row :rolleyes:

Florida does not require a unanimous vote on death penalty. Simple majority of 7-5 will do it. #McTear #McTearTrial
