Aw, geez, can’t they just leave the poor woman alone? She obviously just flaked out.
They found a detailed list of items and other plans. She knew exactly what she was ging to do and it wasn’t ‘talking’.
My oh my that is pitiful. That video demonstrates her detachment from reality.
What did it say her plan was?
Precisely. She’s had a mental break. Sad, but it happens.
She’s crazy as a loon, but extremely dangerous. Mental hospital or jail? I don’t know.
A woman who rose to the rank of Navy Captain and Astronaut had to be a fairly remarkable person. I have to believe she just wigged out, because this behavior is so out of character. They ought to fine her for some misdemeanor and the Navy should let her retire.
Like Jackie Gleason said in Smokey and the Bandit, you can think about it, just don’t do it.
I can’t fathom why this was released! This woman is seriously mentally ill and has a right to privacy like anybody else. If she has a competent attorney, she’ll be suing the government for millions over the release of this video, and win. Imagine this woman’s poor children, who now have to face friends and acquaintances who’ve seen this. Nowak belongs in a secure mental hospital.
“Seriously” mentally ill? What diagnosis?
I think it’s obvious she snapped. I’m not sure it will absolve her of guilt, though. I wonder if she’s gotten psychological help in the meantime.
Bust her to E3 and assign her to a garbage scow.
When you return to Earth they turn on.
In fact, T-cells that were never really working turn on.
There are a host of genetically driven conditions that can occur in association with T-cell overproduction of antibodies.
Among them are Scandinavian Porphyria, Celiac Disease, Lupus Erythematosis, and so on.
Those early photos after her arrest suggest she was suffering from Lupus, and I just bet her urine would turn purple in sunlight. The diaper is symptomatic of someone just now discovering the delights of intermittent Celiac.
None of this would have happened if she hadn't been returned from space.
FOUR HOUR VIDEO?
I think I'll just wait for "Lisa Nowak's Greatest Hits" instead.
Stark raving loony. I’ll let the psychiatrists pick a fancy scientific name for it.
Nowak has taken the last train to looneyville. She’s completely off her nut. At this point I think jail is the last place she needs to be’ I would say the looney bin is far more appropriate. At least there she can get the help she needs. It’s very sad to see how far from grace this one has fallen.
Looks like a bad case of diaper rash. Of course, it depends.
She has had an acute break from reality. It is called psychosis. Depending on the stressors even some people without a psychiatric history can break. With treatment she should come around to some normalcy. But can you imagine what she will suffer emotionally when she is rational again and made aware of her actions?
This is really sad. I think the video can only help her defense in her trial.
