Hayda has a history in her records of bipolar disorder, Glynn said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe is diagnosed as having borderline personality disorder and post- traumatic stress disorder,\u201d Glynn said Wednesday afternoon on the sixth day of testimony in the trial. Jury selection took two days.<\/p>\n<p>PTSD is recurring flashbacks and panic attacks, Glynn said. Hayda met that criteria because of her \u201csignificant trauma history\u201d beginning in her early childhood.<\/p>\n<p>Borderline personality disorder is a pervasive and \u201cnon-curable personality pattern of intense fear of abandonment,\u201d Glynn said. They\u2019ll often want to get out of relationships or stay in bad relationships, Glynn testifed.<\/p>\n<p>Hayda was found in a Vail dumpster in an early morning of March 27, 2018. She claims her ex-husband abducted her from an Avon parking lot after work, hit her, put a plastic garbage bag over her head and threw in a dumpster about 200 yards from an apartment where her ex-husband was living with their two children.<\/p>\n<p>Vail police and prosecutors say none of that is true and have charged Hayda with false reporting, tampering with evidence and attempting to influence a public official.<\/p>\n<p>Hayda\u2019s part of the dumpster incident could stem from her rocky relationship with her ex-husband, Glynn said.<\/p>\n<p>Several criteria define borderline personality disorder. Glynn said Hayda falls into five:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Dissociative disorder<\/li>\n<li>Multiple suicide attempts<\/li>\n<li>Emotional instability anxiety<\/li>\n<li>Multiple relationships<\/li>\n<li>Fear of abandonment<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Juror questions<\/h3>\n<p>Colorado is one of three states that allow jurors to ask questions during trials. The questions are written and handed to a judge. The jury in Hayda\u2019s case has been especially inquisitive, peppering witnesses with questions after the attorneys are finished.<\/p>\n<p>A juror asked, \u201cIs making self-serving accusations a characteristic of borderline personality disorder?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt can be,\u201d Glynn said.<\/p>\n<p>PTSD is not a criminal defense, Deputy District Attorney Johnny Lombardi said Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen someone diagnosed with PTSD violates the law, they should be incarcerated. Correct?\u201d Lombardi asked.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCorrect,\u201d Glynn said.<\/p>\n<p>The digital examination of Hayda\u2019s phone found dozens of internet searches for news stories related to the incident, Tim Rhodes, a computer forensic technician and deputy with the Garfield County Sheriff\u2019s Office testified.<\/p>\n<p>Hayda texted a woman named Felicia 33 times, Rhodes said.<\/p>\n<p>Among the text messages was one in which Hayda wrote: \u201c(Hayda\u2019s ex-husband) did this to me and he\u2019s walking free.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.summitdaily.com\/news\/woman-found-in-vail-dumpster-has-personality-disorder-her-therapist-says\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: Summit Daily<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Linnea Hayda, left, and defense attorney Stacey Shobe argue that Hayda was in an abusive relationship when she was found in a dumpster in Vail.
