JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Two attempts to re-examine Kimberly Kessler’s mental capacity have failed, News4Jax learned Thursday.
A defense lawyer arranged for a doctor to evaluate Kessler on two occasions, but Kessler refused each time. At the hearing to review the evaluation, Kessler refused to come out.
A Nassau County jail officer told the judge, “I spoke to Ms. Kimberly Kessler and she said she will not come out to court-- that she would put out a show and begin to try to take off her smock.”
