Barisone Verdict Is In: Not Guilty By Reason of Insanity

I don’t know. Perhaps a lawyer can chime in. I would think they would keep her somewhat abreast of their efforts and give her some summary at least in preparation for testifying. The IM posts were just wrong enough that they could be a precis of progress filtered through a gotcha no lawyer brain, and communicated to a sockpuppet if IM is not a performance by LK.

“We have hired a very highly qualified psychologist to refute the insanity claim.”

“Can you testify that this transcript of your all to SS is accurate?”

Etc. Once you peel back the initial supercilious tone and all the “facts” and predictions that turned out to not be true, including bombshell, there is not much substance to IM.

Nobody in the prosecutors office would be engaging with us older ladies on an obscure chat group because that risks having the trial jeopardized. Also they have no reason because our opinion is irrelevant to the outcome.

I think IM was trying to perform a version of a supercilious witty lawyer as seen on TV, and started with some grandiose claims to know both sides and be able to speak objectively. But that performance fell apart later on.

It’s hard when someone lies as a matter of course on SM or indeed IRL. Before you know this you will put rather too much energy into talking to them and processing their information. Even after you know it, default mode is still to try to put their various statements into a coherent context.

But as the recent Bob/Rob posts cited above show, at a certain point liars are just twisting in the wind. They will double down on obviously false claims that have been disproven in court. We see this in other sectors of public speech these days, with all kinds of conspiracy theories and misinformation.

I am guessing they think if they keep pressing, SFG will offer them a settlement just to stop the bleeding in attorney fees and get the K-Klan to go away.

I fear they are going to be disappointed. SFG, after all, was doing the big push to get discovery, including deposing LK when the civil suit was put on pause. I’m going to just throw out there that if they watched her testify, they cannot wait to get her under oath again.

Still looking for the posts claiming JK negotiated a bunch of the agreements, especially the one about the work/barter arrangement.

Found this one amongst the many ironic ones….

So either Rob lied on the stand or is lying now. I think now is most likely.

Why can’t it be both?

Yes, and they were trying very hard to push back on us obsessed previous victims who just would not let it go! They desperately wanted to change perceptions for their benefit and the benefit of “the family”. There was a post near the end by IM touting that the tide was turning and team LK was gaining support, or words to that effect. I’m not sure who they were trying to convince, but it does not go unnoticed that the prevailing opinions on these threads actually came to pass. IM truly does not comprehend how intense the dislike for LK & Co is. They have covered and cleaned up and protected for so long, this was just another mess to spin…funny, @Seeker1 actually used the word “mess” in a recent post talking about the entire situation.

To try and put MB in a position where he has to sell his Florida farm and declare bankruptcy is my guess.

Remember what I wrote about LK deciding to destroy someone who SHE KNEW had mental health struggles (and had worked SO hard for SO long to succeed despite them)? That it was like pulling wings off of a butterfly? Well, destroying him financially for fun is very much in keeping with her character.

I spent a lot of time working on gang-banging cases. Those made more sense to me than this level of depravity and ugliness.

That’s hilarious.

She probably should not hold her breath waiting for an apology from anyone who was convinced of her truthfulness by watching the trial.

Well, the behavior is similar.

Speaking of which (entitled behavior) - is anyone else hooked on Mandy Matney’s “The Murdaugh Murders” podcast? I gasped yesterday. I wasn’t necessarily surprised by the information but it still horrified me. It is worth listening to the podcast from the beginning.

Agree, But the K’s seem to be desperately trying to convince everyone that THEY WON the criminal case, which makes me think that if they are truly delusional enough to believe that, they are delusional enough to believe they can also win the civil cases. As I said earlier, there is something odd about the way their brains work.

Normally I would not expect Stephen Colbert to remember one story he did a decade ago. But that particular outing was probably pretty memorable for him. It certainly was for the rest of us, anyway!

Yep, “verifiable” for sure!

Odd is an understatement. I wonder what will happen in their heads when the civil suit doesn’t turn out the way they want? What next?

In one of my contacts I linked the video of the tiara segment with the gofundme as well as a link to the verdict.
