3. Eric Hawkins:

   We are getting indications through my officers that the suspect was somewhat incoherent afterward, and so there's a question about his stability.

4. Amy Nell:

   This ruling was made with incoherent justifications, not based in science and facts — frankly not even remotely focused on the merits of the case presented. since the beginning of the school year it has felt like bizarro world.

5. Craig Peters:
