in the county jail it did so by exploiting mr gauri paranoid schizophrenia for which he had not been treated in the more than three weeks in venice the county jail in the state  exactly those statements by repeatedly threatening mr gauri that he would never see her again unless he confessed his involvement in the murder that she was sent to investigate and by promising him that she would marry him if he and clean so that they could have a fresh beginning and that she would effectively drop the charges of kidnapping in domestic violence that were pending against him and for which she was actually jailed at the time in the face of this questioning mr gauri dig and by immediately asking her put money on his books so that he could see the doctors at the county jail and get back on his she proceeded through an hour long interview with him that was taped using a recorder that was provided by the court and pleas detectives who drove her to the jail after reviewing that tape those officers t wouldn't come come forward he he wasn't explicit with her and in knowledge in what the officers were hoping he would acknowledge that suggests that in fact is free will was an overwhelming he was still being very cagey and cautious in terms of what  exploded his deficiencies as well as his lack of medication is true he didn't completely confess i know either of the interviews in the first interview he acknowledged being at the scene he acknowledged an assault essentially on murder victim but said he was alive when i left and that i was there with elvis parker easy parker and his brother blaine ross rico who ended up being two witnesses against in the theater in the subsequent interview a week later when she returned and began this pattern of never seen again you know baby i want to make a clean you know i want to start together but you got to tell me you not tell me everything and there she's armed with a truth i'm going to know and you'll never see me again but if you tell me the truth i'm going to marry you there he does a lot more and she elicits a lot more from him see a list of the statements i think tie up state's haste and demonstrate the error i'm alluding  harmful in particular he says a guy came out and i cannot play a cat and it was some reference that before that i ran out in the sign says he's alone no one else was with him i tackled him ultimately she gets him to say i slammed his head into the floor and think that are exactly as the guy i was in with killed and the one sort of independent witness at the trial of lee is a neighbor saying when he came out i charged in my room going into the store that coupled very well with what the neighbor observed and was the only other dependable but i have trouble with figure out how how how one can issue in this case mr gauri characteristics are that he has a highly mentally retarded individual with psychiatric problems who is deeply dependent on this one person he's a paranoid schizophrenic who only trust things and she breaks him down over the first time she gets statements not quite enough or wait a week and send him back to him another week off his meds at least that's what what happened in the states well aware of his condition he's asked for his they didn't get anywhere with him it was december first when they interviewed ms dobbins for the first kind of sex that is they set up the first interview for december tenth so at that time it had been twenty three days i believe that he at least that he'd been off his medication the next interview was a week later so thirty days that i just so so we do know that that is i think them is really by the record is that here's what the problem is at least you can tell me why didn't the problem the reason she was doing what she did may not have been because she's a police agent may have been because he a threatened and scared i have today and she had personal reasons that she may have you talk about how long he had had medication and truth that he had had his medication but it's also true that his resistance was and that even without his medications he acted one time he thought he was allowed her to be impeached as a witness at the trial just based on the admission she claims he made with her much more not yet but for these tapes which which are that are harmful error but take a look at take a look at one of the tapes nine sixty four here's a man whose free will is going overcome by the so directions of the arms he doesn't know what he's saying he's saying anything possible just to placate her and here's  i have what you have to do is put it in on the company car what i'm going to try to do i will be able i might i can beat the robbery three i got the time sir gawain no problem says ok only serve ninety days that's no problem wh have to do is beat the burglary this is a man who's talking about strategies for his defense and you say his will is totally over i'm saying that his statements are absolutely involuntary after this confession  no evidence to that effect in the record with respect to the motion to suppress the suppression hearing he presented no expert testimony whatsoever about the extent to which you suffered from paranoid schizophrenia the only testimony  indicating that he did was that from his dobbins who said that he was only paranoid only acted paranoid when he was under the influence of drugs and mr glory in his in the transcript indicated at one point that he was not using drugs while he was incarcerated there's a claim that mr grey suffered from i q of sixty there was no evidence whatsoever to that effect in the suppression hearing the only time that was alluded to was at the trial so somewhere that you don't have to go and in my view because well and and that very well may be correct but what i would like to point out is that the context in which he is at the trial and which is the issue of mental retardation was presented conversation with ms dobbins and there's more more evidence to that effect in addition to this discussion about how he's going to beat the robbery or the burglary charge he also talked about how he was going to resolve the prole matter  in addition i'd like to point to some other portions of the record in which he establishes that he's certainly functional enough to to render his statements voluntary one of the most important aspects of th case is that this was not a situation which his job instead had the upper hand the entire time she was a victim of domestic violence and and was in a horribly terrifying situation with him for  two weeks in which he held her and her children captive and then essentially came out her with a roofing hatchet and in throughout the course of this conversation it continued to exist this is controlling attitude that he had over her he instructed her not to associate with argument thank you i'll give you a minute for vital largely the dysfunctional relationship they had i would say that is a red herring although ms dobbins testified that she was vastly ahead of him in terms of his functioning and her emotional functioning as well as me down i feel good now i feel better i got to visit you go back there and make those calls yes he's capable of having some some plans and being rational in some ways but she absolutely  role and his mental weaknesses that's exactly what conley and span opened down and it's a movie that a contrary decision was unreasonable the court was reasonable in suppressing in the one case the s
