CASE REPORT: BRENT E. TURVEY, Ph. D.
In advance of rendering these conclusions, this examiner finds it necessary to make the following statement and place it in bold-type so that it will not be missed in a review of this supplement. Perhaps the single-most important factor in the disposition of this
case has been the chronic failure of professionals to actually read through and examine the case material to develop a genuine understanding of the case facts. This includes those charged with doing so for the prosecution of the defendant, and those charged with doing so on his behalf. Without a full and genuine understanding of the case facts, it seems highly improbable that any jury could make informed decisions about the guilt or innocence of any defendant. - Brent E. Turvey, PhD
