"During the hearing, defense psychologist Jacqueline C. Valdes testified about Jeffries' behavior, stating, 'He was just saying things without a filter,' referencing his recorded comments to mental health examiners."
"Valdes noted that Jeffries used inappropriate language, saying, 'He was repeatedly described as being a little too personal,' which included using words like 'bitch' in conversations with prison staff."
Michael Jeffries, former CEO of Abercrombie & Fitch, is facing sex-trafficking charges and is undergoing a mental competency hearing. His defense aims to prove he is mentally incompetent to stand trial. Federal prosecutors argue he is competent, supported by their doctors and recorded phone calls. A defense psychologist testified about Jeffries' behavior in prison, including a recorded statement where he expressed a desire to be found incompetent. Jury selection is set for October 26, with two co-defendants involved in the case.
