The accused Lincoln-Sudbury killer has amnesia?!


From the Boston Globe:

A 16-year-old boy charged with fatally stabbing a fellow high school student may be close to regaining his memory of the alleged crime and could eventually be fit to stand trial, his lawyer said Friday.

John Odgren, of Princeton, is charged in the Jan. 19 killing of James Alenson, 15, inside a bathroom at Lincoln-Sudbury Regional High School. He has pleaded not guilty.

On March 26, a court-appointed psychiatrist told the Middlesex Superior Court that Odgren was found competent to stand trial, but defense lawyer Jonathan Shapiro noted then that the report also said his client did not remember the killing.

Since then, Shapiro told The Boston Globe on Friday, his client has been working with mental health specialists in an effort to recover from his amnesia.


If you want to cure the amnesia, just hit him in the head with a frying pan. Geeze, what's the matter with mental health specialists? They never watched cartoons?

Funny how I'm joking about hitting an accused murderer in the head with a frying pan...I'm one insensitive bastard...Happy Good Friday!
