If this guy says "Um" one more time, I just may question his sanity, lol

Interesting, that she attacked the only person who was very vocal and disappointed about her lies, her Mother! . Not her dad, because her dad was like "its okay, we will get thru this" ....

In her so-called psychotic state after murdering her mother, she has the wherewithal to say there was a break in 🙄🙄🙄 that’s not a mental state… that’s planning 🤦‍♀️

The amount of times this Doctor said “ummmm” is mind boggling!

@aprillucas-boyle222 3 years ago

The attorney should reel this guy in. He is so long winded you lose the topic of the sentence.

If she didn’t know what she did was wrong, why lie? She tried saying someone broke in.

Good too see most people are seeing through this girl.
Hope the jury isnt swayed by her poor family's need to keep her out of jail.

@mirkawessels5978 3 years ago

She answered the call from the school, tried so sound like her mother, and hung up when she was found out! That seems like a very calculated and clear minded decision!

Smells like BS to me 💩

I would not want this monster within spitting distance of me or any of my loved ones - ever! No matter the outcome of this trial, it is blindingly evident this girl has dad wrapped around her little finger. Mum out of the way? Voila! She has simply come down with terminal laziness

She's not crazy, she's guilty!!!!

If I took a shot for every time this man said “um” or “uh” I would require medical attention 😂

If she was hallucinating than why actually brake the window ?

@Rubybeebuzz 3 years ago

Even if she doesn’t have schizophrenia, that was some kind of rage to hurt her mother like that to the point where she died, that is not normal!

@susanwhalls6230 3 years ago (edited)

It’s called no coping skills, that doesn’t make murder ok. She was so perfect, her feelings were hurt when she got kicked out & parents couldn’t fix it. Giving her the schizophrenia diagnosis is insulting to people who truly suffer mental illness.

Her family decided what her defence would be and got her the resources accordingly

@ytkimberly4629 3 years ago

I just cant get passed the "um, um, um." How can someone not recognize this in oneself?

@crazyflowerlady1060 3 years ago

So put her in a mental health facility for the remainder of her life and be done with all this.

@princekareem 3 years ago

She looks a wreck in court but looks cheerful & confident outside when she thinks cameras aren't around. Makes ya think. Even with her family supporting her, you'd think they'd be kinder to Brenda's memory and the gravity of the crime against her
