>During a December 2021 court hearing, Michele Killough Nelson, a psychologist who specializes in forensic evaluation of juveniles for court, said, “There is something just off with Dylan. There is something funky going on, but none of us know what it is.”

>Nelson diagnosed Williams with unspecified trauma and stressor-related disorder and unspecified neurodevelopment disorder. But she added that treatment would be difficult without a clear diagnosis.

>Williams’ father was murdered when the boy was 2, and he watched his mother die from an asthma attack at age 12. He never received grief counseling. His custody was unclear in the intervening years, and he was likely exposed to domestic and sexual abuses, according to testimony at the December 2021 hearing.

Thanks for sharing. I read psych cases at work and have never seen a diagnosis of "something funky going on" before. I'll have to share tomorrow w coworkers

The court psychologist in the article says he’s too “funky” to be accurately diagnosed
