she look?

Price:
|
She was laying in bed kind of passive. Uh.
. .
she...
|
.initially that’s how she looked. And I presented
myself to her. I introduced myself to her and asked her did she want to speak with me. And I also asked
|
|
her if she wanted me to ask the people around the bed
|
to leave at that time.
She. . . she was slow to respond in.. . to all of my questions. There was always like a slight hesitation when I asked her questions. And my assessment consists of. . .1 just ask “Are there any medical problems?”.. .“Do you have asthma, diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure?” I think her responses to all those questions were “No”. And then I. . .you know. . .1 asked her who she lives with. . .if she
|
|
was married. I remember her saying that and that she
|
didn’t mind if the.. .her.. .she described it as her
friends from the congregation.. . if they stayed at her side. And so they did and I completed my assessment.

When I did ask her questions, like I said, she had

|
|
|
|
with that. And I said “Lisa, I notice when I ask you
|
|
|
|
a question you cross your eyes.” And she had her eyes
|
|
|
|
• crossed when she answered and she said “Well, it helps
|
|
|
|
me concentrate better”. I.. .1 thought that was kind of
|
|
|
|
strange behavior on her part.

Det.

Sudler:
|
Were these questions that you were asking her questions
|
|
|
|
that would take a lot of concentration?
|
|
Price:
|
|
Not really. I.. I asked her questions such as “Do
|
|
|
|
you have any prior psychiatric history?” She responded
|
|
|
|
“No”. I asked her was she currently thinking of hurting
|
|
|
|
herself or anybody else and she responded “No”. I
|
|

|
confronted her with her alleged bizarre behavior. By
