You know, he had this very pronounced...
stammer and this sort of childlike way of speaking.
And he was trying to explain something about a bag of chips.

As I got to know Robert, as he's so much more than just a very impaired person, the best analogy I can give is that he's like Forrest Gump.
He has no guile.
He does not lie.
He takes everything very literally.
He has autism.
He's in this state of shock, and one of the fundamental symptoms of autism is that when you're experiencing high stress, you actually shut down.
Your ability to convey your emotions becomes even more crippled.
Wondered if that would make any difference to some of these witnesses who had judged him really quite harshly as an unfeeling, uncaring person because he, you know, they kept talking about he just sat there.

He didn't cry.
