Whether Teresa Nore Is Competent to Stand Trial

Three mental health professionals examined teresa nore to establish whether she was competent to stand trial. While it couldn't be ascertained what exact mental health issues teresa faced when she murdered susan and shelar, her remaining children agreed that she suffered from paranoia and delusions. Her half brother had a history of cruelty to animals, violent assault, burglary and armed robbery. This behavior culminated in a double homicide so brutal that knife markings were left in the wooden floor underneath the two victims. Reports suggest that having her mother die in her arm from a hard attack when she was 12 might have triggered teresa's lifelong mental health problems.
