Helen Leary Called
Pathological fLiar
- Bj'Dr S. Or KoHs
Have you a' dictionary close at hand?
Very ' well, listen to , what Dr. S. p.
Kohs, county psychologist.- says about
Helen Leary. the- girl who told the
strange and lurid murder etory about
Cask and Karl Weir:
"She is 20 years - old, of .sub-average"
intelligence, and although she is not
subject to delusions or hallucinations
and .presents no symptoms of dementia
parecox or hysteria, there are definite
indications of constitutional psycho
pathy, and she may be classified as a
pathological liar. . She is subject to
criminalistic ; and ; mental imagery1, or.
what is commonly interpreted by the
lay mind as periodic sullennesa or
moodiness. - ;
: ''Pathological lying- is generally as-
sociated with an earlier history of run-,
ning.away from home, petty . larceny,
filthy language and considerable se
delinquency.. In moral discrimination
she is egocentric, with, little realisation
of the profounder social effects, of ber
behavior." ::.'
fn other, -words. Dr. Kohs accept
Helen Leary's own version of the case,
which . was that she was a -"natural
