I feel that was all part of his plan to go for the insanity plea. I don't think it will work though.

It shows more premeditation which hurts his insanity plea, IMO

Yes, it does. But he will try to use it towards his insanity plea.

Not to hear them tell it....they're doing it for your best interest....I guess that's why 95% of the lawyers are democrats.

Because we don't know what's good for ourselves.

Speaking of lawyers.

I got rear ended in my work truck on Tuesday.  Thankfully no one was hurt.  Did a lot of damage to her car and minor damage to the F-150 I drive.

But I've received 3 letters from ambulance chasers so far wanting to "tell me my legal rights".

They even enclosed a copy of the police report.

I blame ambulance chaser lawyers as one of the reasons auto insurance rates are so high.

When I got a speeding ticket here in NC, the next day I was getting those same types of letters. All the other speeding tickets I recieved in FL, GA, and AK, nothing.

In my area we have about ten ambulance chasing lawyer offices. As well as a couple of injury lawyers trying to get people to call for all kinds of stupid things. And they wonder why people sue for anything these days.

The post office had to recall the lawyer stamp. No one knew which side to spit on.

I forgot where I read it, but one county here has 1 pending lawsuit for every 3 people. One of the most litigious counties in the country.

I don't want to be trite and have not been able to read all the posts, so sorry ahead of time if I am re-hashing stuff already discussed.  Is anybody besides me thinking that this kind of incident will increase with more gun control and less freedom to bare arms? I remember my brother and I teaching my son's Japanese exchange teacher how to shoot a .357.  She was like 90 lbs, and after a day she could out shoot either of us.  I am thinking to myself that if that little girl had been present in that theater with a revolver, maybe one person would have died before the nut-job was "taken out".  I mean, sure guns require some training, but so does driving a car, and the huge majority of people would act to stop a terrible thing, not cause it.  I mean even liberals, properly trained, would do the right thing here!  Police can never be present in time and nut-jobs will always be among us, so it seems to me that more "regular people" need to be "packing heat", or many many more innocent people are going to die.  Do we have anything resembling intelligent leadership left??

... sorry, still chewing on this subject here ... I was just thinking about the University incident back in '07 (I think?).  It was Virginia Tech, down in southern Virginia.  I think over 30 kids were killed. I mean they were college students, but I am a grandfather so I get to call them kids.  Anyway, how many "kids" on that campus, out in the country in VA, do you think there were, that knew how to fire a weapon??  I bet there were many many.   So I think it is safe to say that if not for laws stopping them, several young men and perhaps women, would have been armed at the time.   If so,  do you think more, or fewer people would have had to die that day?  I think over 30 young students lost their lives that day.  Remember that in the similar case in Texas back in the 1960s, it was an off-duty COP and some "regular citizens packing heat", that ended the campus tower incident.  I seriously believe that armed citizens are THE ONLY protection against "nut jobs".  Who will stand up against the onslaught of those who imagine "gun control" makes us safer?? It seems to me that many lives depend on it, but maybe I am just an old fool.

I wonder why more on our side don't bring up Pearl, Mississippi or Virgina School of Law. For those who don't know, a kid went crazy and shot some other kids in a HS, then was going to go continue at a Jr. Hi. An assistant principal ran to his car, got his (legally owned) handgun, and stopped the kid until the cops arrived.

Virginia School of Law-guy was upset at his professor, shot hm, two students (off duty officers taking law classes) retreived their handguns and shot the guy before he went on a rampage.

Imagine if they were allowed to carry in the victim zones?
