And it was always depending who he was talking to or how he was feeling that day. Mm-hmm.

While at Rampton, he would speak openly about his drug and alcohol abuse prior to being arrested and was very, again, grandiose and theatrical when describing acts of violence in his past. Staff interpreted it as an attempt to impress the other patients. That said, it does appear that he derived some enjoyment from talking about his past acts of violence. That makes sense.

He would often smile as he spoke of the attack on Nisha. That's gross. Like it made him happy. On the other hand, when he spoke of the future, he would become depressed. He understood that he was going to be in the hospital for the foreseeable future, and he found that distressing. In fact, during one court appearance in 1994, he expressed absolutely no remorse for the murder. None.

But he did regard the event as a matter of great regret, as the outcome was that he was now crippled and facing a bleak future.

So he literally said, I don't give a shit that I did that. The only reason I'm upset about it is now I have to deal with pins in my legs because I jumped off a building and because now I don't know what's going to happen in my future because of it. This is so bleak. Yeah.

In March 1994, he pled not guilty to the charge of murder, but he pleaded guilty to one charge of manslaughter and guilty to a charge of assault for the attack on Bobby. In the years after that, he continued exhibiting bizarre behavior and psychotic thinking, but the psychiatrists at Rampton could not find a diagnosis either. Right. They were just as at a loss as the other psychiatric team.

Because he ticks off a lot of boxes, like, everywhere. And the problem... Like, all across the board. So as a result of them not being able to figure out a diagnosis, they found it very difficult to assess his degree of dangerousness.

Well, as this is all going on, social workers continue to interview Brian's friends and family, looking into his background, trying to find anything that might help explain his mental state.

According to his sister, they had been raised in a home where violence was a regular occurrence. That makes sense. Mostly at the hands of their father.

Now, despite this, those who knew him best said that they insisted that Peter had been mostly pleasant and a hardworking child, which completely... Who the fuck said that?

Now, the first sign of mental illness appears to have been noticed by a family friend in late 1991 or early 1992.
