Has seen other students like JH that have gone on to become good doctors
During break, attys and judge having a discussion. Anyone want to take over?
OK, please don't throw anything at me for saying this...
But the Defense attorney that goes against Braucler...her voice is really irritating! It may be seem worse, since she is against Mr. Smooth Talker...but I don't think by much. It would be hard to listen to her on an extended questioning sequence!
Just some ramblings.
Its interesting how this witness is saying he was good on paper which I take to mean his grades were good.
Did JH already have a BS degree?
If so, then I wonder if he had trouble passing a certain graduate school class or 2 that was required?
It seems I recall it was previously stated that he started to struggle in grad school.
Maybe it was a couple of his required courses that he had to pass for the graduate degree he was pursuing and maybe it was the first time he struggled with grades.
Just wondering if it may have contributed to his mental instability?
It would be traumatic if you were pursuing a certain degree and had to have certain classes and realized you could not get a passing grade on them.
There are certain courses that must be taken.
Sometimes you run into a course or a teacher that seems impossible to pass because of the way they go about it the course.
I once took a course and I studied like all the others and when I saw the first test I could not believe what I was seeing. It was like a different language and even though I attended class each day and took notes I realized there was no way I was going to pass that test.
I had to drop the course and take it the following semester and then once i learned how that professor handled the tests, I had to prepare for it a whole different way. I barely passed the class .
Just wondering if JH ran into trouble with his classes like that. Maybe he was never in that situation before and he could not handle the stress of not being able to pass the courses he needed.
If so, it surely wasnt the only thing that threw him over the edge.
He seemed the type of person that had multiple issues going on.
Girlfriend issues too and that could have been traumatic as well.
Maybe a combination of things put him over the edge.
like - he is this way all the time - I wonder how he felt sitting across from JH saying negative things about him?For me, the professor's testimony about Holmes' attitude and behavior was exceptionally revealing
I'll....I'll be in and out thoughDuring break, attys and judge having a discussion. Anyone want to take over?
:blushing: Anderson......Have I mentioned that Mr. Smoothtalker reminds me of Anderson Cooper ?

I found this very interesting document while searching for the address. I am sure it has been discussed here, but maybe not for a long time, since this was put out during a document dump (most likely) during a pretrial hearing (or something like that)
This is his school record for admissions to University of Iowa Biosciences Department (that's the best I can gather). 2 people on the Admissions Committee specifically stated for John Holmes.
One said
Do NOT offer admission under any circumstances
Another said
I agree with Dan. Don't admit.
I wonder what the basis for that was??
Trying to bring this over from the old thread..... I really wonder what "Dan" saw in JH.... Very interesting!
