dbp:quote
  • He [Lamb] was one of Elliott [Barker]'s ... I wouldn't want to say 'all-stars', but he had about as cold a personality as psychopaths have and he really seemed to warm up and benefit from the program. (en)
  • ... his comrades gave him a hero's funeral. Back home in Windsor, Ont., however, Lamb was anything but a hero... (en)
  • ... Would slick con artists have a field day in striving to be classified as insane and not criminally responsible? Would the shrewd psychopathic criminal have a much easier time in the hospital for the mentally ill than in a federal penitentiary? ... (en)
  • ... Here was a young teenager who had a glaring defect in his capacity to feel or appreciate what he was doing. Here was a young teenager living in a fantasy or dream world, unconnected with reality. Here was a teenager who was insane at the time of the shootings. (en)
  • When Matt Lamb was released into the community he had a better mental health clearance than you or I. (en)
  • He did not really appear to be deeply concerned as to what would happen to him as a result of the charge against him even though he faced the death penalty if convicted of capital murder. He seemed quite prepared to let justice take its course. (en)
  • ... we isolated him at his own request because he was afraid of what he might do. Lamb had two totally different personalities. When he was in his proper state of mind, he was a fellow you couldn't help but like. But he could be vicious. (en)
