Psychological Report Prepared for Arlington County Circuit Court Psychological Report for Ms. Susan Wilson NAME OF EVALUATOR : Ashley Turpin REASON FOR REFERRAL: Ms. Wilson has been referred to this evaluator for diagnostic clarification regarding the incidents that occurred on Day 5 at 4:26pm. Ms. Susan Wilson is being charged with resisting arrest, malicious wounding, and child abuse and neglect of her sons Peter and Jason Wilson. NON-CONFIDENTIALITY STATEMENT: Ms. Wilson was informed at the onset of each evaluative session of the voluntary nature of this evaluation as well as the limits of confidentiality. She was informed that all the information gathered during this evaluation had the potential to be included in a report that would be submitted to the Court. Ms. Wilson understood the non-confidentiality of the evaluation, its voluntary nature, and agreed to participate. SOURCES OF INFORMATION Day 5 – Victim Statement of Jason Wilson – Authored by Officer Ted Fryberger Day 5 – Witness Statement of Terrance Jackson – Authored by Officer Ted Fryberger Day 5 - Initial Police Interrogation – Authored by Officer Ted Fryberger Day 5 – Police Report – Authored by Officer Ted Fryberger Day 6- Jail Incident/Observation Form 2 – Authored by me Day 6- Behavioral Observations Interview – Authored by me BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Susan Wilson, a Caucasian, 5’11, 27-year-old female from Arlington, Virginia, is the mother of 10-year-old Jason Wilson and 8-year-old Peter Wilson. According to her neighbor Terrance Jackson she is currently unemployed and receives disability for some sort of ‘mental problem’. He also reported that Susan can be very loud, displayed paranoia, heard ‘cat noises’ with no cat present, and had pillows taped up on all her vents. Her eldest son Jason Wilson reported that his mother, Susan, has locked herself in her room previously and is always saying weird stuff. SUMMARY OF INSTANT OFFENSE On Day 5 at 18:48 hours, the reported instant offense of Ms. Susan Wilson occurred at her apartment 633 North Nelson St. Apartment 3B, Arlington, Virginia. Earlier that day, her 10-year-old son, Jason said that his mother Susan was in her room and would not come out. He heard her saying odd phrases regarding ‘cats under the building barking’ and that she is always saying weird stuff like that. Later that he was in the living room
watching television with his brother Peter, when his mother, Susan, started attacking Peter and ‘screaming stuff’. When Jason realized what was happening, he yelled and tried stopping her. Peter was screaming and pushing their mother off him. That is when Jason grabbed a lamp and hit her in the head causing her to fall over. This allowed him to drag his brother into a locked room and call 911 operators stating that his mother, Susan Wilson stabbed his brother Peter. Their neighbor Mr. Terrance Jackson had the day off and was also watching television when he heard Peter and Jason screaming. He proceeded to go next door and knock on the door, but there was no answer. He tried to unlock the door but was unable to do so which led him to call the police. Officer’s Fryberger, Fox, and Rahaim were discharged to the scene as well as emergency medical staff being en route once the officers arrived at the scene. When they arrived at the scene, Ms. Wilson was yelling ‘open this damn door Jason, the devil is coming for you both’ and banged on the door. Ms. Wilson was not responsive to the officers and continued banging on the door. When officers broke down the door, they instructed her to drop her knife, or they would resort to tasering her. Since she did not respond or acknowledge the presence of the officers being there, Officer Fox deployed his taser and Susan fell to the ground, dropping her knife. Officer Rahaim put her in handcuffs while Officer Fryberger and Fox informed Peter and Jason that the scene was safe and to open the bedroom door where they had locked themselves. This is when emergency medical personnel arrived and addressed their injuries. Following this, it is stated that Ms. Wilson tried to get out of the handcuffs and screamed “the little ones are not safe here. Why won’t you let me kill them?” The children were secured from the apartment and Ms. Wilson was read her Miranda rights and taken into custody. She was transported to the police station for questioning. Officer Rahaim reported that in transport, Ms. Wilson continued saying odd things referring that her sons will ‘spend eternity in hell’ and its ‘all your fault’. Susan continued to make odd remarks ad sayings throughout her interview. BEHAVIORAL OBSERVATIONS: On Day 16 at 14:30 hours, I met Ms. Susan Wilson in Arlington County Detention Center where I conducted a behavioral observations interview in her jail cell. Appearance: When I began my interview with Susan, she was wearing an orange jumpsuit and looked younger than her stated age of 27-years-old. Her eyes were red and puffy and seemed to be dilated. Upon further looking, I noticed that she had her nails painted pink and her hair seemed like she had not showered in a day or two. Her posture varied throughout the interview, as she either leaned forward or sat up straight. Behavior: Throughout my interview with Susan, her behavior started to become more noticeable. She continuously touched her hair and brushed her fingers through it. Multiple times she readjusted how she was sitting as well. Her eye contact was strong, but it was evident that her pupils were dilated. She would have trouble concentrating but would stare at me when I would talk to her. Her eye movement increased when asked about Page 2 of 4
