Text: David Nissen, a registered nurse at Mary Lanning Memorial Hospital, testified that he was on duty when police officers brought McBride in around 3 a.m on February 5, 1995. He stated that McBride, who was in street clothes, had a minor bloody nose and a few minor cuts and bruises. He also testified that McBride's hands were gloved in blood up to his wrists. He asked McBride what had happened, and McBride responded, `Done pissed me off, son bitch' and `[t]hat's all right, it was worth it.' Nissen asked McBride how he had been injured and how he had come to have all the blood on his hands. After getting little response to his questions, Nissen asked McBride if he had taken any drugs or alcohol. McBride responded that he had `[j]ust beer' and had used `turkey.' McBride then said that he `didn't get my Boy Scout female survival badge.' Nissen said he did not know what to make of these statements, so he just wrote down what was said. Nissen noted that McBride did not appear to be intoxicated, but did appear to have been drinking.
