He was demonized and legally penalized for traits he can not help or change. Seeing his lack of eye contact and flat affect being demonized as a sign of guilt of harm and violence hit very close to home to me. Autistic people are often used to smears equating us to serial killers and abusers

A Dr prescribed his daughter w/ meds we now know can be lethal to kids & pinned her death on him A nurse even lied on the stand, fraudulently pretending to be a Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner just to vilify an autistic man as a pedophile & abuser, despite NO evidence & her lying about her credentials

Also if it was SBS and he’s sufficiently mentally disabled shouldn’t that be closer to manslaughter? Is that death penalty worthy??

They set him up in many ways, including having someone lie about their credentials to paint him as a child rapist, despite the contradicting evidence. Also, he had no evidence of intellectual disability during the trial (I also don’t think he is). The jury itself found him guilty of capital murder
