#LoydTrial // With that, state rests it's case for death penalty. They presented their arguments in this phase just like trial. Quick and straightforward. Defense will be up next. From openings, sounds like they have several witnesses including Loyd's family, friends & doctors.

Dunn says he concluded Markeith Loyd was "psychotic."
"I believe he’s a paranoid schizophrenic and has an extreme example of cultural paranoia," the psychologist said. "There was nothing normal about this man's development."

Dr. Marvin Dunn - a psychologist - is now testifying, saying #MarkeithLoyd grew up like "a weed in a manure patch" without anyone giving him proper guidelines. Dunn says Loyd is psychotic and a paranoid schizophrenic with developmental disorders. #News13Orange @MyNews13

This defense expert is compelling but his diagnosis about ML's psychosis seems to be unfounded. His analysis of the community issues and upbringing is spot on and I don't think many people will find issue with that. But these experts always want to come in and claim the defendant is psychotic when there's no basis for it. Smh.

'Go on about your business': Markeith Loyd addresses judge before court recesses (with clip)

Oct 21, 2019

"ORLANDO, Fla. - The state rested its case Monday after calling a handful of witnesses in the penalty phase of the Markeith Loyd trial....

Testimony came Monday from a former Orlando Police Department officer who testified Loyd punched him in the face after he pulled him over for driving without a license plate.

A probation officer also informed the jury that Loyd was on probation at the time of Dixon's death.

Loyd's siblings also took the stand to explain how Loyd had no role models growing up....

Another sister testified that Loyd became the provider on some of those nights the children were hungry and that he'd sometimes have to steal food and sold drugs to help pay the household bills.

Loyd's mother, Patricia Loyd, told the court about the day Markeith's cousin Wesley was killed and that Loyd cried when went to the scene and saw his body. ...

Loyd's attorneys later called Dr. Marvin Dunn to the stand, who called Loyd delusional and psychotic....

Before court wrapped for the day, Markeith Loyd addressed Judge Leticia Marques, objecting to an email that was sent to her about his alleged brain damage. He believed the information should have been shared with a jury and not her, at one point telling her to "go on about your business," before giving a head nod to cameras. His objection can be watched below...

Testimony is slated to continue Tuesday at 9 a.m. Defense attorneys plan to put three other doctors on the stand during the penalty phase before going to the jury. ..."

Markeith Loyd trial: Expert says killer grew up like ‘weed in a manure patch’ as jury weighs death penalty (with clip)

OCT 21, 2019

"Markeith Loyd grew up in a “poisoned environment,” an expert witness on race told jurors Monday....

Lenamon argued Loyd’s traumatic childhood experiences, as well as a history of mental illness, should be considered by the jury as they weigh the death penalty. The attorney said an expert found Loyd had a “significant delusional disorder” on the psychiatric spectrum.

“He’s not insane, but it’s a consideration that you must now put into play,” Lenamon told jurors...."

Sesta reviewed Loyd's school records from @OCPSnews and hospital records from recent years. #WFTV #MarkeithLoyd


Field Sutton‏Verified account @FSuttonWFTV 2h2 hours ago
Sesta: “He has a lot of head injuries. He has one from when he was 13 and on a military base. He got beat up with a pool cue and they found him wandering and took him to the hospital.” #WFTV #MarkeithLoyd


Field Sutton‏Verified account @FSuttonWFTV 2h2 hours ago
Sesta, regarding another alleged head injury: “He was kidnapped for about four hours, and when they found him, according to them, he looked like the elephant man, he was beaten so badly.” #WFTV #MarkeithLoyd

Sesta: “All those head injuries we were talking about, either he’s lucky and they didn’t do anything or they did and he healed.” #WFTV #MarkeithLoyd

Sesta: “Mr. Loyd doesn’t have any problems intellectually, but that’s not to say he doesn’t have problems psychiatrically.” #WFTV #MarkeithLoyd


Field Sutton‏Verified account @FSuttonWFTV 2h2 hours ago
Sesta is discussing Loyd's delusions: “He gets targeted and gets arrested more often than others. He used to run the whole City of Orlando. So I’m thinking these are some strange thoughts.” #WFTV #MarkeithLoyd

Sesta administered the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) to Loyd. #WFTV #MarkeithLoyd

Sesta says Markeith Loyd scored so high on his ideas of persecution that a test couldn't measure it further.
"His big thing is delusions of persecutions, essentially that individuals are trying to hurt him or harm him for no perceptive reason."


Field Sutton‏Verified account @FSuttonWFTV 1h1 hour ago
Sesta: “His big thing is delusions of persecution, essentially that people are trying to persecute him. And that’s big for us in forensic cases, because often that precipitates violence.” #WFTV #MarkeithLoyd

Sesta: “The bar shows you how for out the criminal scores go. He’s way past even the bar for criminals.” #WFTV #MarkeithLoyd

Field Sutton‏Verified account @FSuttonWFTV 1h1 hour ago
Sesta: “I do think he’s suffering from a psychotic disorder. Both persecutory and grandiose delusions. Certainly, in a case like this it’s something that should be on our radar that it could be very important.” #WFTV #MarkeithLoyd

Campbell: “He told me stories about his mother beating him extensively, when she did get home, with belts and switches. He reported that one of the criteria for this was that she wanted to beat him until he cried.” #WFTV #MarkeithLoyd

Campbell: “He basically explained to me that his family doesn’t believe in mental illness. But I was able to talk with some of the other experts and confirm that there is a history of mental illness in his family that’s largely been ignored.” #WFTV #MarkeithLoyd

Campbell, regarding Loyd's lack of family support: “He said ‘I looked out for them. It never even occurred to me that they would look out for me.’” #WFTV #MarkeithLoyd

Campbell: “He has very well developed self defense mechanisms. He has worked very hard to put his emotions away and not let them come through.” #WFTV #MarkeithLoyd

An unidentified person was arguing with a deputy near the courtroom door in the Markeith Loyd trial.
Circuit Judge Marques warned everyone about disruptions and said that person was kicked out for the day.
It appears the person was coming in with Loyd's family.


Field Sutton‏Verified account @FSuttonWFTV 44m44 minutes ago
The trial has abruptly stopped due to a disruption. For several minutes, either Jameis or Jamesia Slaughter has been causing a commotion at the doors to the courtroom. #WFTV #MarkeithLoyd


Field Sutton‏Verified account @FSuttonWFTV 44m44 minutes ago
Jameis is Loyd's ex who was arrested but never prosecuted for helping him while he was on the run. Jamesia is her identical twin sister, hence my inability to know which one. #WFTV #MarkeithLoyd


Field Sutton‏Verified account @FSuttonWFTV 47m47 minutes ago
Judge Leticia Marques has admonished everyone in the courtroom. She says whichever Slaughter is currently out in the hall is out for the rest of the day. (She had been seated in the gallery prior to the commotion.) #WFTV #MarkeithLoyd


Field Sutton‏Verified account @FSuttonWFTV 49m49 minutes ago
The jury was out for that, but has come back in. Dr. Campbell continues his testimony. #WFTV #MarkeithLoyd
