The description of what he was observed to be doing is evidence of bizarre aggressive behavior. You put the two together that to me says he was

impaired, he was intoxicated with and there's a slang term he's whacked on this PCP.

From W.B. E.C. Chicago and the Chicago Tribune, this is 16 shots, the police shooting of LeQua Mcdonald. the Jason Van Dyke called witnesses to aid in his defense.

W beez's Patrick Smith is at the courthouse and Patrick today a specialist in the effects of

the drug PCP testified for the defense.

What did you have to say? Yeah, the defense called Dr. James

O'Donnell. He's a pharmacologist to testify. You know, the reason they called

them is because we know that there was PCP in the Quam McDonald's blood the night he was

killed by officer Jason Van Dyke. However, the Cook County Medical

Examiner last week testified that it was a low level. Today Dr. O'Donnell testified that he could tell

based on looking at the video and other police reports that LaQua

McDonald was high on PCP when he was killed, that his behavior was altered by that PCP.

You know, he testified about possible effects that being high on PCP can have, including hallucinations, making someone act aggressively,

making someone not be able to feel pain or have superhuman strength.

And the reason he was up there is because the defense wanted him to help paint that picture that they've been trying to paint since day one of

LeQua Mcdonald as a scary dangerous person the sort of person that it would be justifiable and

reasonable to be afraid of, the sort of person that you might need to use or

did need to use deadly force on.

To my opinion, based on all the evidence I reviewed he was intoxicated and impaired by

PCP at the time of his death as demonstrated by aggression, failure to heed orders from the police assault on the police vehicle, continuing aggressive movement toward officer Van Dyke.

He looked unfazed.

He looked like he was looking over us or through us.
