Quite possible! I don’t recall the source of the comments. On the other hand, it’s hard to imagine that even Lauren would want anyone to really believe that she committed an incident of that nature.
Someone said that someone who knew her from her childhood in Livingston posted it, but I found no corroboration anywhere. I now believe that much of the “hype” around Lauren Kanarek - beyond the associated criminal charges over the years - was self-generated by her to put fear in others and intimidate them into staying silent, cause she would go bonkers whenever people would bring up stuff that was known to be true, yet didn’t bat an eyelash when something really crazy came out about her, from left field.
I hope I am still allowed to speculate. Maybe the lawyer believes the judge is already on his side and no real paperwork is needed to get what he wants.
Sort of like the political developments and documents.
He did not state that Barisone was found Guilty but Insane.
He stated that the verdict Barisone received indicates that the jury determined that his actions were consistent with attempted murder but for the fact that he was not criminally responsible for the act due to the finding of insanity.
You know this.
On the justification for the remote disposition, his main points were that it is more efficient, less costly, and has been standard for several years now. While the Covid aspect was secondary, I liked his point that, dud you being shot in the lungs by the defendant, the plaintiff was at higher risk due to Covid. He didn’t actually kill her with the gunshots. Wouldn’t it be ironic if his lawyers compelled her to travel unnecessarily, she gets Covid, and dies? Who gets sued then?
I also found the inclusion of the picture of a horse in Deininger’s filing bizarre. What the heck does that prove? It shows she doesn’t bother with masks on her horses? Was it even a picture of her horse?
Don’t you think that traveling to serve as a witness in a major criminal trial is a different sort of thing than being compelled to travel for a mere deposition that could more efficiently be done remotely?
Things to think about when you consider pursuing a suit as a plaintiff - do I really want to travel back and forth possibly numerous times? Do I want to drag my mom and dad into this as witnesses? Am I prepared for multiple days of questioning by three different teams of lawyers? Is it worth it?
I do not intend to debate reading comprehension again with anyone. ALL one has to do is read the document with an open mind and see the discrepancies and grammatical errors. But, of course one must be able to actually read the document with an unbiased eye rather than overlook the errors to benefit their narrative.
The filing today is a complete joke as many of us have discussed above. If this man was my attorney he wouldn’t be paid for this prelaw, unproofread mess. How disrespectful to the court.
The COVID restrictions have pretty much been lifted in the area and the testing sites are mostly closed down now, so it’s either not a problem or they just don’t give a damn at this point. Earlier on, the local government was fairly adamant that citizens should be cautious and wear masks, but the attitude of most citizens down there was fairly cavalier from what has been said.
Oh, I will apologize. He did not insert the legal term NGRI, as you point out. I apologize. He did correctly provide the implication of the verdict Barisone received, and which I stated in the part of the sentence you edited out.
I have edited the post eliminate the incorrect assertion that he wrote down “NGRI”. The edited post still contains the more important part (edited out by you) that “the verdict Barisone received” indicates that the jury determined that he shot her, but was not criminally responsible due to the insanity finding.
He said “guilty” (non capitalized) of attempted murder. He did not say Guilty (capitalized) of attempted murder. That tells me that he’s not using the word guilty as the criminal verdict Guilty, but saying that the jury determined that “he shot her”. Which it did.
ETA. Of course he did not write “Not Guilty of Attempted Murder”! He was referring to the verdict with respect to the charges against the plaintiff, LK. WRT LK, Barisone was not found “Not Guilty”, no matter how many times KnightsMom makes that ridiculous claim.
