Medical Malpractice Complaint Against Dr. Lisa K. Clayton
September 12, 2005
Statement of Facts about the case.
Dr. Lisa K. Clayton is a Forensic Psychiatrist
Texas State Board of Medical Examiners License Number: J2543, Issuance Date:
11/14/1992
Date Of Birth - October 17, 1961
Social Security Number ----------
Primary Address 9400 MacArthur Blvd., Suite 124-606, Irving, Texas 75063,

In June 1946, Harold "Buddy" Vest was found hanging in his cabinet shop in the small town of Gainesville, Texas. Buddy's son, Herb, always thought there was more to what happened to his father that night.
Now, 58 years later, he launched his own investigation and is offering a $100,000 reward for "relevant information". (http://www.murderingainsville.com/MIG/)A June 25, 2005 CBS news story proclaimed, "Buddy Vest was just an innocent bystander at the hands of her boyfriend's rage," said psychiatrist Lisa Clayton, who is part of Herb's investigative team. "She essentially created this death and this tragedy because of her own immature poor judgment that she had at the time."
It was Clayton's job to analyze the letter. "I imagine what she did over the years was just try to bury it, and almost act like it really didn't happen and put that in the back of her mind," said Clayton. Now, she believes Smith is trying to atone for her sins and that Smith thinks writing the letter may be enough: "I've done my part. I'm atoned. I'm forgiven. He knows the truth. Let it be. If he wants to send money, good. If he doesn't, at least he knows."
(http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2005/06/23/48hours/main703749_page3.shtml)
Dr. Lisa Clayton's statements are clear fabrications since she is not in a position to ascertain the mental or emotional of the "boyfriend" at a moment 58 years ago. Dr. Clayton cannot with any certainty determine whether the "boyfriend" was manifesting a state of "rage". Dr. Clayton further compounds these slanderous remarks by stating "She essentially created this death and this tragedy because of her own immature poor judgment" referring to the wife of the man suspected of murdering Harold Vest. Dr. Clayton's analysis of the letter mailed to Herb about the murder led to the conclusion, "I imagine what she did over the years was just try to bury it" clearly reveal that Dr. Clayton has used her imagination in the forensic, psychiatric analysis of the letter. This is completely unacceptable. It appears that Dr. Clayton is fabrication information with a view to providing the most information, fabricated as it was, and collecting the $100,000 reward.
The February 26, 2004 Ellis County Press article proclaimed, "Waxahachie - Kent William Sprouse was found guilty of two counts of capital murder Tuesday, Feb. 24 in the 40th District Court. "Sprouse admitted he was angry when he drove to the gas station after having an argument with his father, forensic psychiatrist Dr. Lisa Clayton said.
A court-appointed psychiatrist, Dr. Jay Crowder said Sprouse couldn't tell him why he shot Moreno. Dr. Clayton testified she met with Sprouse two times last June to determine his mental capacity. She said she didn't think Sprouse was psychotic during the killings. "He did not have a severe mental defect and he did know what he did was wrong (on Oct. 6, 2002)," Clayton said. "If anything he's a bright, articulate young man." Crowder testified he met with Sprouse multiple times to determine his mental status. "He (Sprouse) was certainly psychotic on that day," Crowder said. (http://www.elliscountypress.com/archive%202004/022604.htm)
Dr. Clayton's statements contradict the statements and determination of court-appointed psychiatrist, Dr. Jay Crowder, on at least 2 issues. 1. whether Sprouse remember doing the killing and 2. whether Sprouse was mentally incompetent.
Dr. Clayton's statements that Sprouse was a bright, articulate young man are non-credible considering that Sprouse was found guilty of 2 counts of murder at a gas station of a police officer and a bystander after an argument with his father.
Either Dr. Clayton is incompetent to perform a psychiatric evaluation of a patient or she fabricated her mental evaluation with the second agenda of securing the maximum penalty for a 'cop killer' in order to please her employers, the Lew Sterrett Justice Center in Dallas where she works as a Staff Psychiatrist. It appears that she will say anything to please those who pay her enough money.
Dr. Clayton did not determine that Sprouse acted in a fit of rage as she had with the killer of Harold Vest 58 years earlier, whom she'd never examined since the murder occurred before she was born.
Can anyone who kills a police officer and a bystander in an act of rage be mentally normal? This appears to be a case where the decision was made before the examination was conducted.
Dr. Clayon testified for the defense at the January 28, 1997 trial of Darlie Routier who was accused of stabbing her young sons to death and stabbing herself. The State of Texas vs. Darlie Lynn Routier, Criminal District Court, Dallas County, Texas NO. F-96-39973-J & A-96-253
(http://www.fordarlieroutier.org/Legal/Transcript/Simmons/Vol-43.htm)Dr. Clayton testified about "psychic numbing" stating "it just describes how some individuals are essentially -- go through kind of a state of, I guess, psychic shock". I guess?
Dr. Clayon's actual testimony on the witness stand:
Question -" And, what are the facts or underlying data that you used to form that opinion in this case?
Answer - "Various, I guess, psychiatric textbooks, there's some articles that have been written about psychic numbing, but predominantly, I guess, psychiatric and psychological textbooks."
Question -"Have -- is any of your opinion based on the interview with the defendant?
Answer - "About the psychic numbing?">
Question -"Yes."
Dr. Clayton states "I guess" that the facts or underlying data that she used to form that opinion in this case came from psychiatric textbooks. What about her patient? Dr. Clayton is guessing during her forensic psychiatric testimony at a murder trial. Or using more imagination.
Dr. Clayton is then asked, "Is any of your opinion based on the interview with the defendant?" Routier's attorney, and Dr. Clayton's employer, had to prompt Dr. Clayton for the answer that he wanted. Dr. Clayton answers, "About the psychic numbing?" Duh! Of course about the psychic numbing. Dr. Clayton is supposed to be the authority or she should not be testifying.
Dr. Clayton further testifies, "Women, very rarely, kill themselves with a knife. In fact, most -- in the American culture, it's very rare, I guess, maybe common with Japanese soldiers, but it's very rare for a woman to try to kill herself with a knife."
Common with Japanese soldiers? Is she referring to World War II Japanese soldiers? How many World War II Japanese soldiers were women? Was it common? How does this support Dr. Clayton's determination that Darlie Routier could not have 'self-inflicted' her stab wounds because World War II Japanese soldiers commonly kill themselves with a knife?
Dr. Clayton further testifies, "That, again, there is -- my opinion is that there was no lover, or any reason why she needed to rid herself of the two younger children. Again, usually those type of murders are -- you don't just, I guess, murder one of the children, or some of them, it's usually the hole [sic] group of children if the mother wants to be childless. Or in the few situations, I guess, where a child has been born by one father, and the mother might kill the children that have been born by the father who she is no longer with, and just want to keep the baby by her newer husband or newer father. So, it's my opinion that she does not fit in that category either. Dr. Clayton is doing more guessing and imagination at a murder trial. These ramblings are incoherent and scary.
She is, therefore, in my opinion, for sale and a disgrace to the medical community.
