I think she uses “We” in the royal sense, as she often states or implies heavily, that she is royalty, divine, of great noble ancestry, a person of great importance, etc. and makes references to Princess and Queen on occasion.

It seems to have rubbed off on RG, since I noticed to use the word “we” quite a bit in his testimony. “We” trained with MB, “we” showed at that show, etc., etc.

Here is the article from the Chronicle, the gracious host of all our BB activities:

Give the boy a break. He did most all of the real work in the training, after-all. 
Seriously though, I think he just says “We” a lot because he has to keep on her good side and always make her feel like she can depend on him and that he won’t run away from her, as all accounts say that she’s completely helpless without him.

Notice that it says “Chronicle Staff” instead of a specific name. They probably don’t want to open up employees to the wrath of LK.

While there has been some disingenuous gloating from posters who will remain unnamed, I think this is a great outcome for MB. He was exonerated on all charges and will be connected with mental health support.
I don’t generally do evaluations for commitments or extensions, but the organization I work for handles hundreds of them per year, so I have filled in on occasion in that statute area and I have colleagues for whom that work is their bread and butter.
Without knowing him personally, I see MB having a lot of very positive prognostic indicators, for the reported diagnosis in specific and overall mental health outcomes in general. Everyone I know who does commitment evaluations takes the idea of least restrictive environment very seriously. One can also remain under a commitment but return to the community. It may be that MB returns to the community after his 30 day assessment and even if he stays under a commitment order for a period of time to ensure his recovery is going well, commitments are evaluated regularly to ensure they’re needed.
And, not to be too defensive of my colleagues haha, in-patient mental health providers do also want the best for their patients. Not to minimize the experiences of those who have had negative experiences, just recognizing that there are lots of providers in those settings who are passionate about the work and compassionate and empathetic towards their patients. And there are people who find relief and benefit from their in-patient stays - I hope MB is one of them and can return to the community soon.

Gag. It makes me think of her old pal YankeeDuchess.

And… she’s back up online. Commenting on Dressage Hub’s YouTube video about her hot takes from Michael Barisone’s Attempted Murder Trial.
And she is gloating about MB having to go to a psych facility, and arguing with people, and claiming he will be remanded to remain in NJ, etc…
Just… warped.

It looks like a decent verdict. Lauren is safe for now and hopefully enjoying her horses and MB can get a real evaluation and some decent medical workups so he can get some help. i hope you can all continue healing from this.

Did the judge say the case would remain in his courtroom? In my state, it would be moved to probate, since it’s no longer a criminal issue.
(Granted, I doubt any of what is being posted there is based on facts, that just stood out to me as very counter to my experience)

Wow! She has learned absolutely nothing. If two slugs to the chest don’t cause someone to reevaluate how they’re showing up in the world apparently nothing will. Unbelievable.

I have a hunch that Sharp/TLC may be eyeing her for a reality show.
How likely is that to be allowed to be transferred to FL?

Apparently the next hearing at the 30 day mark will be back in front of this judge.
I found your comments really interesting about the “least restrictive environment.” That makes sense to me. Inpatient psychiatric beds in ANY facility in the US are very limited. I have to imagine if MB is ready to move on to the next phase of treatment, he will be moved out of the Anne Klein facility as soon as is safely and reasonably possible.
Does it make sense to you that he would be remanded to remain in NJ though, if he no longer has a home there? His property was sold while he was in jail.

The farm wasn’t his. He was just leasing it for several thousand a month. His farm in FL is where he could reside, but with LK’s new lair being a few miles up the road from the farm, it’s not likely that he will be allowed to reside there, if she has anything to say about it. Like all things, it is up to the discretion of the court, so we’ll have to wait and see how things go with the rehab and therapy in NJ, for the next few months.

In my state, it would be able to be transferred, so long as the “receiving state” (where he’s going) has similar statutes. Im guessing N.J. is similar - some states also allow for transfer to private facilities, especially if the client can pay for the services.

Not by accident I’m sure….more evidence of the evilness of this situation.

Normally orders of protection are for 500 feet. He should be able to go home. That’s where his recovery lays.

Yikes. I can visualize Rob driving an ice cream truck up and down MB’s street with LK hollering into the microphone.

I think most protective orders have max distance limitations. Typical orders are 100 yards. But… in other cases, they can specify that people can’t go within a certain number of streets of one another.
I would think a few miles apart would be allowed, even under the terms of a very stringent protective order.
But it’s NOT ideal for them to be in the same town.
