Psychiatrist: Morva has personality disorder
Dr. Bruce Cohen, a forensic psychiatrist who conducted extensive interviews with Morva and his family members and reviewed documents related to Morva, just took the witness stand and testified that he found Morva to have schizotypal personality disorder and narcissistic tendencies.
Also, he said, Morva's IQ is in the range of "superior intelligence" and is in contrast to the "very little he has accomplished" in his life.
In conversations with Morva, he said, he found that Morva had planned his escape - but not necessarily the murders -- in advance.
Cohen is the thirteenth witness to testify for the defense today.
Morva's mother has not taken the stand, and it's unclear if she will.
