I got interrupted! How many churches did McTear go to?

#McTear judge back on the bench. Prosecution not going to have expert testify re antisocial personality disorder, only going to rebut PTSD

I do not have a workable link, at this time.

Lazarou saw #McTear on Saturday, the first time she was able to see him. Reviewed abt 1,000 pages of interviews, reports, etc.

Elaine Silvestrini ‏@ElaineTBO 52s
Also reviewed a large amount of letters #McTear wrote while incarcerated

Elaine Silvestrini ‏@ElaineTBO 13s

"He has had an extensive amount of trauma that has occurred to him over the course of his life," Lazarous says re #McTear

Elaine Silvestrini ‏@ElaineTBO 15s
#McTear doesn't have trouble sleeping. People w PTSD often can't sleep because they're hyper aware, Lazarou says

Elaine Silvestrini ‏@ElaineTBO 19s
#McTear told her, "I never get nervous." Lazarou says someone w PTSD have a lot of anxiety.

Elaine Silvestrini ‏@ElaineTBO 45s
People w PTSD will flynch or look behind them when noises behind them. #McTear didn't react to attorney sitting behind him, Lazarou says

Elaine Silvestrini ‏@ElaineTBO 13s
Lazarou examined #McTear and saw scar on back and neck. McTear didn't have problem letting her look.

"Obviously, Richard has experienced a lot of trauma," Lazarou says re #McTear. People w PTSD usually avoid reminders of trauma.

Elaine Silvestrini ‏@ElaineTBO 38s
"I know that Richard had opportunities to go w other relatives, but he chose not to, partly because he loves his mother," Lazarou says

Elaine Silvestrini ‏@ElaineTBO 1m
"It seems that at times he would go toward violence" rather than avoid it, Lazarou says re #McTear

#McTear "was very social w other people," Lazarou says.

Elaine Silvestrini ‏@ElaineTBO 50s
"Betrayal trauma" "Did not have any bearing on his actions in this case," Lazarou says, dismissing other doc's testimony re #McTear

Elaine Silvestrini ‏@ElaineTBO 28s
"In this particular case, he actually created a trigger," Lazarou says re #McTear. People w PTSD don't initiate conflict.

Elaine Silvestrini ‏@ElaineTBO 38s
"People w PTSD have a very bad temper," Lazarou says. "They don't seek out agressive situations. They retreat from those." #McTear

Prosecution has no further questions. Defense starting w. Lazarou now. #McTearTrial

Elaine Silvestrini ‏@ElaineTBO 1m
#McTear defense going over PTSD diagnostic criteria w prosecution expert Lazarou

Elaine Silvestrini ‏@ElaineTBO 1m
"Only 1 percent of people that suffer from a trauma get post-traumatic stress disorder," Lazarou says.

#McTear jury being sent out of courtroom. Prosecution says 15-20 minutes for closings. defense says 30-45 minutes

Elaine Silvestrini ‏@ElaineTBO 5m
Parties going over mitigating factors the #McTear defense wants jurors to consider. Prosecution agrees to 35 factors, wants others out..

Defense attorney tries to read from a biblical passage. Prosecution objects loudly. #McTearTrial

I am glad the Prosecution objected to that, it didn't belong in her summation. imo
