Psychologist: Malvo | ||||
2003-12-09 | ||||
Sniper suspect Lee Malvo was so brainwashed by mastermind John Allen Muhammad that he could no longer tell right from wrong when an FBI analyst was killed outside a Home Depot during last year’s shooting rampage, a psychologist testified.
"You see officer - I drank 2 fifths of Vodka and ’lost touch with reality’. So I should go free — sorry about the deaths but you see it really wasn’t my fault." Exact same excuse as a drunk driver. "He is, in my experience, a very unusual, rare case," he said. Just like eveyone else who goes ’sniping’ like this. Malvo told him he was the spotter - not the shooter - in all of the sniper shootings except the last one, Cornell said. That contradicted a confession to police in which Malvo, laughing at times, said he was the triggerman in all of the shootings in metropolitan Washington that left 10 people dead and injured three. Jurors previously listened to the audiotape of that confession. Prosecutor Robert F. Horan Jr. expressed skepticism about the diagnosis, noting that a dissociative disorder from brainwashing is poorly defined in the medical literature. Simple solution. Simply have the person who pulls the switch on ole sparky have a ’disassociative disorder’. Horan was expected to continue cross-examining Cornell when the trial resumed Tuesday. Cornell interviewed Malvo in jail more than 20 times since February. Malvo initially defended Muhammad but after several months, Malvo said he realized that Muhammad had manipulated him, Cornell said. "He realized he was an expendable person" to Muhammad, Cornell said, recalling that Malvo wondered, "If I was doing right, why did God let it stop?"
Learning how to fly 747’s no doubt. No need to learn to take-off or land..... By the time Malvo had been fully subjected to Muhammad’s indoctrination, "the effects were he believed what he was doing was right and that John Muhammad was a chosen person of Allah." Cornell also testified about Malvo’s intense interest in the film "The Matrix," which Malvo watched more than 100 times - including just before Franklin’s shooting.
This explains why we have hundreds of thousands of snipers since the film and games release...... oh...wait.... Cornell said the film seemed to represent how Malvo viewed his situation, with a hero chosen by a black father figure to lead a revolution against "an evil government" that oppressed people. Its the ’Evil Empire’ again! Brahahahahah!!!! | ||||

#4 Malvo's defense team must've been watching "Law and Order" re-runs. The dissociative disorder defense didn't work on that show either. |

#2 "Psychologist: Malvo Has Mental Disease" That's not a very PC way to talk about the world's fastest growing religion. |
