That’s not what I meant. The parents in the Pines family were not mentally ill. The father was a successful medical doctor, the mother was a prominent attorney. They were neglectful, selfish parents. They divorced. The father kept the children and married a prostitute. She was abusive and mentally cruel to the younger son. The older one was already away at boarding school. What she did to the child, compounded by his parents’ indifference, caused the boy - who was brilliant - to go mad. Biology had nothing to do with it.

You suggesting a “Flatliners” type of scenario? ... who knows very well could be. Although maybe one day, since we actually captured this animal alive he may tell his story.

Could be. In the meantime, his pictures from the courtroom show him looking dazed, confused, and clueless about everything going on around him -- almost like Nancy Pelosi does.

The lawyers provoke conflict to inflate their fees, the real estate people move in for the kill.

That too. I was thinking more in terms of doubling the number of households with each divorce and all that includes. We generally go from ONE of everything to TWO of everything; living quarters, vehicles, refrigerators, big screens, you name it.

Verily. But speaking what many have concluded to be the unvarnished truth on this forum will not likely win you any Dale Carnegie awards.

I know someone who's about to get nailed...

Give him my best and tell him not to trust ANYBODY; even his own counsel. "You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy."

This psychiatrist was alerting people about Holmes, when no one else seemed concerned. At least, she should be given some points for that.

I agree with that point. Credit where credit is due.

Still, her eyes are strange in appearance.

What is “old” is “new” again.

Look at the lighting in the photo. It is from above and slightly behind. That doesn’t mean it wasn’t bright out, but there is no direct light in her face. (So why squint?)

[Smokin' Joe]

Is it my imagination, or does this “discovery” feel like a drip in a managed PR campaign?

It does smell of CYA to me. It may even be true, but the University, the Department, and those involved are definitely trying to provide preemptive exculpatory material.

Hiding what is within?

The look strikes me as sun in her eyes while posing.

Maybe that's what struck me as odd. If you look at the light on her hair, you realize the light isn't in her eyes.

That set off my Fauxtography alarms from waay back in the days of green helmet guy.
