Carly Gregg, 15, seen texting stepdad seconds after allegedly fatally shooting mom
, psychiatrists testified at her trial Thursday — but one argued she committed a “diabolical” act that keeps her from meeting the requirements of an insanity defense.
“In my opinion, Carly does not meet Mississippi’s standard for insanity at the time of the offense and she knew the nature and quality of her actions on that day.” Other psychiatrists at the trial painted a picture of a girl who was suffering severe mental illness in the lead-up to the alleged murder — including one who insisted Gregg was hearing voices.Dr. Jason Pickett testified that Gregg’s text to her stepfather demonstrated that she knew what she was doing during the murder.“She said she had been hearing one voice, a male voice, since she was young — maybe around five or six years old,” said Dr.
And Rebecca Kirk — a counselor who also met with Gregg in January after her parents said she was having severe intrusive thoughts — testified that the girl insisted she was not hearing voices. Clark suggested the news of her mother’s recent discovery of the teen’s marijuana habit, coupled with the emotional turmoil she was going through, might have sparked a psychotic episode.
