Episode 382: What We Need to Know About Forensic Psychiatry with Dr. Mark Levy, Part I Episode Notes Are you curious to learn how human behavior and the law interact? Dr. Mark Levy delves into the fascinating world of Forensic Psychiatry, shedding light on the intriguing dynamics at play. Join us as we explore the riveting cases of The People vs. O.J. Simpson and The State of New York vs. Donald Trump. It’s a fascinating discussion that will make you think! Dr. Mark Levy is a licensed clinical and forensic psychiatrist with over four decades of experience. He has degrees from Columbia University and the San Francisco Psychoanalytic Institute. He is certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology and the National Board of Physicians and Surgeons. He is an Associate Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at the University of California, San Francisco, and an Adjunct Associate Professor of Psychiatry at Stanford University School of Medicine. Dr. Levy and his team of 22 board-certified psychiatrists and 10 forensic neuropsychologists practice forensic psychiatry at Forensic Psychiatric Associates, L.P. (FPAMED.com). Dr. Levy has been retained as a forensic psychiatric expert in more than 500 civil lawsuits and related matters. He has published numerous articles and presented countless talks on forensic psychiatric topics, such as “Mental Illness In the Workplace” and “Shrink in the Courtroom: Forensic Psychiatry and Law.” I chose to discuss the O.J. Simpson and Donald Trump cases because they spontaneously came up in our conversation. Our legal system has loopholes that get exploited. In one case, someone is guilty but found innocent. In the other, the offender was found guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records that kept a sordid extramarital affair from the public before the 2016 presidential election. The men accused in both cases committed the crimes. O.J. Simpson died earlier this year on the 30th anniversary of his yearslong 1994 criminal case, The People vs. O.J. Simpson. He was found not guilty by a Los Angeles jury of the gruesome murders of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ronald Goldman. Just because he was found not guilty doesn’t mean he didn’t commit the crime. We discuss the role of the prosecuting attorney, the broader cultural context, and the impact of societal influences on legal cases, which can blur the facts and conceal the truth. We taped this podcast conversation in the middle of The State of New York vs. Donald Trump trial. I asked Dr. Levy if he thinks Donald Trump is a psychopath. Dr. Levy explains the Gold Water Rule and the ethics of diagnosing people you haven’t examined. Dr. Levy gives insights into Donald Trump’s reactive and impulsive behavior and transactional focus in relationships regardless of norms or the law. Irrespective of the nation’s needs or individuals in the country, Donald Trump is focused on what is in Donald Trump’s best interest and projects onto others so whatever he accuses others of doing, it is really him who is doing it. If he calls President Joe Biden a criminal, flip it. He is talking about himself. That is what we can predict. Two psychopath researchers give us insights into how psychopaths operate. Hervey Cleckley, in The Mask of Sanity, labels psychopaths as “grossly selfish, callous, irresponsible, impulsive, and unable to feel guilty or be able to learn from experience or punishment.” Robert Hare defines psychopaths as “social predators who charm, manipulate, and ruthlessly plow their way through life… violating social norms and expectations without the slightest sense of guilt or regret.” If we cannot learn from our experiences, we are stunted in our capacity to grow, heal, and change with new information. We can stop being manipulated, shamed, and traumatized by electing leaders who have the capacity to grow, heal, and change. Authentic leaders, respect the rule of law, show compassion for themselves and others, stand up for the truth with courage, and have an overall desire to make our world a better place, not destroy it. Other highlights in our conversation to understand human behavior and the law: Dr. Levy and I discuss what we learned from reading Mary L. Trump’s book, Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created The World’s Most Dangerous Man. Mary Trump, Ph.D. is Donald Trump’s only niece.Norms vs. Codified Laws.Corruption and bias in our Judicial System and Supreme Court.The need for transparency and enforcement of rules to protect our democracy.
