Suarez thought it was strange when Rothman disclosed that he'd been suffering from auditory hallucinations - hearing things - for the past 15 years because Rothman had never mentioned this to any of his doctors. That doctor referred Rothman to a neuropsychologist, who diagnosed Rothman with mild cognitive impairment in March 2007 and sent him to a neurologist for further testing. In August 2010, 17 months after Rothman was found guilty, the judge ruled that Rothman was incompetent to proceed to sentencing. Everyone said Rothman was incompetent, except for Suarez, who insisted that Rothman didn't even have dementia. [Extracted from the article] |
