As a person on the spectrum, I can only say that this lawyer is a despicable human being for saying this tripe.

1. People on the spectrum are disproportionately less likely to commit violence. This lawyer is demonizing people on the spectrum in a clearly disingenuous attempt to save his (almost certainly non autistic) client from blame.
2. People on the spectrum are by no means unintelligent. A huge proportion of cases, myself included, are high functioning, and would neither commit violence nor buy into QAnon bullshit like the Q Shaman did.

@mathlover @Nike Right, his lawyer is playing a "insanity defense" kind of thing but it's just thin gruel
