Selective memory to suit her diagnosis...SMH
YES! IMO, she pretends to recall what GB asks her about-BUT, when he asks details, she says "I do not remember that. He did not bring it up with me. I didn't ask him about that". WTH?
Not only are her notes not detailed enough to support her opinion, neither is her head! What DID she actually DO to help the defense to earn her boatload of $$?
She came to Colorado to see the patient, to diagnose him, and to testify at trial. So, she gets to work, reads however much she chooses -- I assume she saw the shortcomings (in her view) that the ones before her had done, and she stood up, straightened her skirts, and sat down to do a proper job of it.
She saw the patient -- prolly got only a little way down the road with him -- read more, saw Reid's films and prolly laffed and shook her head in pity at his almost getting it right -- decided JH was indeed schizophrenic right then & there -- she was a leading expert, doncha know -- and talked with the poor insane young man some more -- she knew what he had done, surely the work of a madman, and she looked for it in him & saw it. Period.
She handed her notes to a Fellow or a grad student -- one of her most promising -- and had her notes expanded as she talked with the Fellow to fill in the gaps. The Fellow agreed with all she said -- she was an expert in the field, ya know -- and wrote it up.
She looked at his brain pics, compared with the test group -- uh oh, look at the size of those ventricles -- no doubt -- just as I thought -- and that pathetic little amygdala, too. I'll pronounce him schizophrenic and insane and the world will change. Those who blew the diagnosis will realize where they were wrong, poor fools, and by the way, I don't wanna talk to Feinstein or Fenton, either -- they don't deserve my drawing a breath to converse. She finalizes her stuff, goes back to Colorado -- make sure his meds are right, people can be so careless -- talks with him again, yep he's got a case to beat all cases, what a waste of a good IQ, he was looking at neuroscience -- he might have come to work with me if he weren't insane -- pity, that one. Oh, it's time to take the stand -- outta my way, dobie, the Doctor is In.
