Discussion List for campus-based and allied personnel working to end gender-based violence on campus.

In 2005, Illinois v. Mertz - the supreme court of illinois ruled that there 
is no data whatsoever that lariam is causally connected to violent behavior

in 2002 - US v Mezvinsky -- a federal court ruled there was no evidence 
linking lariam to psychosis or irrational decision-making -- 

in short -- while any defense rooted in methodologically sound science should 
be presented to a jury - there is no evidence that lariam is causally 
connected to sexual violence or any other criminal activity - thus, while a 
defense attorney can easily find a hired gun to testify otherwise - it is 
also appropriate for prosecutors to file motions to prevent such testimony as 
it is expensive and distracting. ? And nonsensical claims that seek to 
mitigate personal responsibility distort rather than elucidate the truth --
