Content:
A man kidnaps his two children, murders one, and attempts to kill the other. At his trial, the defence turns to more than 100 examples of the defendant's artwork, created over his lifetime, to determine whether he was mentally ill at the time of his crimes. Describing an outstanding example of the use of forensic art therapy in a criminal case, David Gussak, contracted by the defence to analyse the evidence, recounts his findings and presentation in court, as well as the future implications of his work.
