Did Judge Weller fuel Darren's delusions? You bet he did.
You would agree that you've become a lot more familiar with this particular divorce than you actually did when the divorce was occurring. Isn't that fair, Judge Weller? No. Well, you didn't know Mr. Mack's first name, and he'd been in front of you for over a year.
You treated Mr. Mack differently than you did other people who appeared before you, didn't you, Judge? No.
With this question, I do apologize, but I have an obligation to Mr. Mack to ask it. You hadn't been sleeping with Charlotte Mack, had you? No, sir. Okay, that would be crazy.
We've given him hope, we've given him an opportunity for his family and his kids to feel that he's not gonna be locked away in a max prison forever.
I think it's been one of the greatest injustices that I have ever seen in the criminal justice system, and I've been doing it for 17 years.
You could bring in any competent expert. Darren Mack is not insane. It's an absolute joke what they did. You're not competent to argue self-defense if you're insane.
Am I correct that Darren Mack is the one that said, I'm not going with an insanity defense on Charla? This was self-defense? Yeah, there's no question about that. And you did not think that was a smart thing to do?
No, because he came to the garage with a knife and a gun in his pocket.
had told us that after he stabbed her, he put his knee on her head and she was gurgling. When he told that to us in preparing for his testimony, I got physically ill.
This is a horribly disturbing situation I'm in right now. Because when I learn something from my client, I'm not telling anybody.
So the second conversation, he indicated to me that he had meditated on what we had talked about and described to me in fairly significant detail what had occurred in the garage that included this gun.
I had two concerns. The first concern was that perhaps Mr. Mack was being less than candid with me, or alternatively, the dumpster had been moved. So I decided to go with the dumpster had been moved as opposed to him being less than candid with me. Your Honor, the defense will call Darren Mack to the stand.
The truth will set you free, not the fear of the truth. And that's what happened here, Judge. They were afraid of their own case. They tried to tailor this man to an insanity defense, and he is not insane.
I mean, if I had a dollar for every time somebody said to me, this guy must have just snapped.
What does that suggest to you? If that isn't a clear example to a lawyer or my colleague to have psychiatric analysis of our client, that's what that says to me.
People need to remember that Mr. Mack came back voluntarily so that he could present his defense.
Our investigation shows that this woman was violent and could get angry and do things that were inappropriate that may actually raise the question of self-defense.
It's not for lawyers or prosecutors to decide, it's for experts.
I'd have to know who wrote it before I could tell you.
