IM said that pleading NGRI was hugely risky and there was no telling what a jury would do. He also pointed out that defendants who successfully plead NGRI sometimes spend just as long confined to a mental institution as they would have spent in prison.
Whether Barisone was found NGRI or guilty, how would that permit them to “take over everything he owns in Florida and proceed to go after MHG”? If you don’t want any discussion of MHG, why do you keep bringing her up?
Whether Barisone was found not guilty, guilty, or NGRI, the only legal avenue LK has against Barisone is the civil suit.
Nobody here is “eating crow” in response to the NGRI verdict. But isn’t the celebration for the NG part of the verdict a bit premature, given the RI part? Are people assuming that he’ll be released after the first hearing?
Perhaps he will be, but the risk that he’ll be confined for years is still there.
