Osborne hearing reconvenes at 2:15

After a break for lunch, the Jesse Osborne hearing resumes at 2:15 this afternoon at the Anderson Courthouse. Having called a minister and three psychiatrists this morning, the defense may have called its last witnesses. And, if that’s the case, the courtroom audience will look to Judge Edgar Long for a decision on whether the boy will be tried as an adult on the charges that arose from the day of the Townville Elementary School shootings in 2015.  Prosecutor David Wagner said he’s unsure if Long will announce a decision today or take the matter under advisement.  Among this morning’s witnesses was Dr. Ernest Martin, a forsensic psychiatrist. Martin said Osborne suffers from early signs of psychosis and hallucinated after he allegedly killed his father that he saw his father after he was shot dead. A second defense witness, minister Bill Davis, was asked on cross-examination what he thought of social media comments attributed to Osborne on the day of the shootings which had Osborne saying that he felt he was “on the wrong side of righteousness and the right side of Hell.”
