On job as a psych tech, Mark Hacking played at being a therapist

SALT LAKE CITY Former patients at the psychiatric hospital where Mark Hacking worked as an orderly say he also conducted unauthorized group therapy sessions.

Hacking is now in jail, accused of murdering his missing wife, Lori. He'd told clerks at a neighborhood store he was a therapist.His actual job title was psychiatric technician. University of Utah hospital spokeswoman Ann Brillinger says techs deal with patients' basic needs, but aren't allowed to provide counseling. The university says Hacking ran group "activities," not therapy sessions.But two former patients recall Hacking would act as a therapist, asking about their concerns and taking notes on their behavior.

Hacking's name tag said "Franz," and he insisted on being called that. Brillinger says it was a take-off on Saturday Night Live characters, Hanz and Franz.

If he tries to go for insanity, it ought to be interesting to see how his employers explain their missing the signs in his behavior.

Heads up, Miz.

Next, Lori Hackings father expresses outrage over her murder, on the Greta Show FNN.

Lori's dear father has had a change of attitude and issued a scathing press release condemning Mark's cowardly deception.

" As the facts of my little girl's death emerge, I am outraged. The innumerable lies she was told by her husband for years and years on end were selfish and shameful. The cowardly way in which she and her baby were brutally murdered in cold blood while she slept is dispicable.

The gutless attempt at covering up this monstrous act is appalling and is difficult to imagine a more disrespectful way of disposing her remains. No family should lose a daughter this way."

Here we go again.

Not only that but he was conducting "unauthorized" therapy sessions for the inmates. That oughta be good for at least one lawsuit.

I'm glad to see at least ONE person in the family saying they are not "loving and supporting Mark."

For cryin' out loud, he killed their daughter!

Very cowardly, very brutal and put her body in the dumpster and then went to the landfill compost, like she was yesterday's rubbish!!
