A riding student is shot by her Olympian trainer. Will he be found "not guilty by reason of insanity"?
CBSN
Just days ago, former Olympic equestrian and trainer Michael Barisone was back in a New Jersey courtroom. In 2019, he was charged with the attempted murder of one of his students, Lauren Kanarek, and her boyfriend. At his trial, Barisone's legal team tried a rare strategy -- the insanity defense. They argued Kanarek used social media to push him to his mental breaking point. Barisone speaks out to "48 Hours" contributor Nikki Battiste in his first television interview since the end of his trial. STEPHEN COLBERT ["The Colbert Report"]: Is this how you start it? You just pull this like a lawn mower? MICHAEL BARISONE | 911 CALL | July 31, 2019: There's a war and it's going to be dealt with right now. I've had enough of these people. I need them gone! 911 OPERATOR 361: What's the address of your emergency? "Everyone should be worried. I'm not responsible for anything my other personalities do when they're threatened." MICHAEL BARISONE TO 911 | August 3, 2019, 9:35 a.m.: They're nuts. They're stalking us, they're harassing us. MICHAEL BARISONE TO 911 | August 3, 2019, 9:35 a.m.: And we are in fear for our lives. LAUREN KANAREK to 911: I've been shot in the heart! … Michael Barisone shot me. Please help, please help … ROB GOODWIN [911 call]: Stop f***ing moving! Stop f***ing moving! Stop f***ing moving!
Michael Barisone, 58, spent a lifetime standing proud in the winner's circle. MICHAEL BARISONE to 911: They have chased us out of our house, and I need this dealt with tonight …
Nikki Battiste: We see pictures of you at the Olympics looking like a king.
