Stuart Shipko fails again as he tries to smear victim in murder case to get killer's conviction overturned in Ohio

How low will Dr. Stuart Shipko stoop as a forensic psychiatric expert to try to get his paying criminal clients off the hook from jail?

How about smearing the character of the victim in a murder case? That's what Dr. Shipko tried, but failed, to do in a murder case in Columbus, Ohio from December 29, 2001.

In June 2002, Kevin Alan Tolliver was convicted by a jury of his peers in the shooting murder of his live-in girlfriend, Claire Schneider, an Ohio State University senior in Spanish and international studies, inside the apartment the couple shared together in the Olentangy Village Apartment Complex in Columbus, Ohio.

On the night of December 29, 2001, Tolliver and Schneider went to a night club. Shortly after they returned to their apartment, a female neighbor overheard a male's voice screaming, "No, no. Don't don't. Oh please. Please." The woman called police, but they were unable to find the source of the disturbance and left the scene.

Thirty minutes later, Tolliver called his ex-wife, Natasha Tolliver, and insisted she bring their daughter to his apartment. When the ex-wife arrived at Tolliver's apartment, she saw blood smeared on the front door, her ex-husband dressed in a blood-stained robe, his hands and legs were soaked in blood, and there was blood on the living room wall and kitchen floor.

To understand just how far psychiatrist Stuart Shipko will prostitute his professional reputation as a psychiatrist to pick up a paycheck as a paid expert witness from anyone willing to hire him as a forensic "mental expert," one needs not look much further than Shipko's embarrassing and dishonest work done on behalf of the defense in a trial involving convicted murderer Richard Glen Williams, 53, of Grass Valley, California.

Richard Williams was convicted in November of 2007 by a jury of his peers in a three-week trial in Napa, California of murdering his estranged wife, Hendrika "Hetty" Williams, by first strangling her, then shooting her twice in the head and once in the heart with a high-powered concrete nail gun on October 22, 2005. Williams then turned the nail gun on himself.

The crime took place in the home the estranged couple had once shared on the 10000 block of Alta Street in the sleepy small town of Grass Valley, not too far from the Sierra Nevada mountain range in Nevada County, California.

Hetty Williams was pronounced dead shortly after the shooting, while the accused, Richard Williams, slowly recovered from his self-inflicted abdominal and chest wounds during a month-long stay at Sutter Roseville Medical Center.
