Prosecutor implies Hans Reiser is narcissistic

�(02-21) 13:54 PST OAKLAND -- The prosecutor in Hans Reiser's murder
trial suggested Thursday that the defendant's well-chronicled social
ineptitude was caused not by mild autism, as defense lawyers have
theorized, but because he has a narcissistic personality disorder
characterized by arrogance.

Beverly Parr, a psychiatrist who has known the 44-year-old Reiser
since he was a toddler, testified for the defense Wednesday that he
showed all the signs of having Asperger's syndrome, which is marked by
impaired social skills and a fixation on things.

The defense has maintained that while Hans Reiser may come across as
strange, that doesn't mean he killed his estranged wife, Nina. She was
31 when she disappeared in September 2006 after dropping off the
couple's two children at his Oakland hills home. Her body hasn't been
found.

During her second day of cross-examination Thursday in Alameda County
Superior Court, Parr again acknowledged that she had never diagnosed
Hans Reiser. She was also reluctant to agree with prosecutor Paul
Hora's theory that Reiser is narcissistic.

Hora read from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental
Disorders, generally considered by psychiatrists as the bible of their
profession.

"How about a father who insists that his son is gifted, is brilliant,
is a genius, is inadequate in school because he's smart and is bored?"
Hora asked, referring to sentiments that Hans Reiser expressed
regarding his son, now 8. "He's in first grade but should be in third
or fourth? A father who sees his son like that, is that a trait of
narcissism?" Hora asked.

What if he were talking about his father or wife instead of his son?
Sound like anyone here?

"I'm not a specialist, but it could be," Parr said.

Hora continued to read from the manual, saying, "They are likely to
insist on having only the 'top' person (doctor, lawyer, hairdresser,
instructor) or being affiliated with the 'best' institutions, but may
devalue the credentials of those who disappoint them." Had Parr known
Hans to act this way? Hora asked.

Wow, that hits close to someone, eh?

"I know many people ..." Parr began.

"Ma'am," interjected Judge Larry Goodman. "Answer yes or no."

Makes you go Hmmmmmmmm.........
