Taylor suffered serious emotional distress, part of which was fear for his and Mya’s life which led them to fleeing their home state of Massachusetts as a result of Murray’s continuous intimidations during four months. The issue in this case is whether Taylor has a claim against Murray for the intentional or reckless infliction of emotional distress. Under Massachusetts law, the court will likely conclude that Taylor has a claim against Murray for his conduct toward Taylor because (1) Murray intentionally inflicted emotional distress to Taylor; (2) Murray’s conduct was extreme and outrageous; (3) Murray’s conduct directly caused Taylor’s emotional distress; and (4) Taylor’s emotional distress was severe. See Agis v. Howard Johnson Co., 371 Mass. 140, 144-45 (Mass. 1976); Quinn v. Walsh, 49 Mass. App. Ct. 696, 706-07 (Mass. App. Ct. 2000); Cady v. Marcella, 49 Mass. App. Ct. 334, 340-41, (Mass. App. Ct. 2000).

Stepp asks that the court charge him with second-degree murder on the account that he “was unable to perform the specific intent to kill” due to his PTSD.

May I please the court, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, opposing counsel. This is a simple story of betrayal. A story of laziness that lead to rounded corners. Not only did this laziness lead to a broken friendship, this plagiarism possibly led to the loss of $20 million dollars promised to Regan Buschell. The defendant, Regan Buschell stabbed Becca Ables alone at the festival for this money. If Regan graduated from Wheeler U with a GPA of 3.5, he would gain $20 million. But when a hard class came along, Regan Buschell plagiarized to keep that precious green paper. But rightfully so, when Becca Ables went to turn Regan in, she was stopped by the blade. Unable to be here today due to her physical state, unconscious at the hospital and hanging
