NEW YORK-Police say Wendy Gabrielk prentended not to be able to speak or hear for three years to delay his trial for robbery. The New York Daily News reports:
Wendy Gabriel, who communicates with judges and prosecutors through handwritten notes, has apparently feigned the disability since his May 2008 arrest, psychologist Barry Winkler says.
“There is no dysfunction,” said Winkler. “He’s not speaking because he doesn’t want to.”
Prosecutors said Gabriel used the ploy to secure 64 adjournments and to delay trial for nearly three years.
