and mental exam, and they’ll determine if he needs special
treatment while he’s institutionalized and they’ll make
the proper recommendation," Assistant District
Attorney Holder told sonicnet.com. "All we’re trying
to do is get him into the state system, and that’s what
Frankel (Ol Dirty’s lawyer) is trying not to do. This
case has been going on and on for a while. Enough already.
Let’s just move on with it."
"His
mentality is totally different, he’s not himself anymore,"
Ol’ Dirty’s wife, Icelene Jones said. "He’s scared
to go back to jail because people are threatening to
kill him there," she continued. "Me and the
children know that he’s not doing so well."
