Michael Welner Biography

Michael Welner is one of the most popular and richest Psychiatrist who was born on September 24, 1964 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States. In the time leading up to the shooting, Xerox management became more committed to phasing away the copier Uyesugi had been using. Fearing that he would not be able to keep up with the technical requirements of the machine, he refused to learn it. Uyesugi was able to work around his refusal of learning the new machine. His manager insists that Uyesugi would start training on the following day, November 1, 1999. Uyesugi instead went to work that day, shooting his colleagues, narrowly missing an eighth victim. He later revealed to Welner that he waited by the water fountain with “butterflies” in his stomach, and contemplated the shooting before deciding to go ahead with the shooting.

Welner is the youngest of four children. Both his parents were born in Poland and lost their families in the Holocaust. His father Nick was civil engineer; his mother Barbara, who dropped out of school as a wartime refugee, entered nursing school in Britain unable to speak English and finished as valedictorian, going on to specialize in gerontology. Dr. Welner lost both of his sisters in accidental deaths. Dr. Welner’s oldest sister, Sandra Welner, M.D. was a Maryland-based gynecologist who fought through severe neurological disabilities suffered in a stroke to become internationally renowned for her medical research and advocacy for the medical care of the disabled before her untimely death in 2001.

Khadr, a fifteen-year-old Canadian expatriate living in Afghanistan, was charged with the killing of U.S. Army medic Christopher Speer at an al-Qaeda safe house in Khost. Khadr was captured by American forces on July 27, 2002 and held first in Bagram, Afghanistan and then at Guantanamo Bay detention camp. He was prosecuted through a U.S. military tribunal.

Damon Thibodeaux admitted to the 1996 rape and murder of Crystal Champagne. He was convicted and sentenced to the death after being tried. Despite the fact that the verdict was upheld by appeals, defense lawyers raised many points to the Jefferson Parish district attorney to prove Thibodeaux innocent. There was no DNA evidence to disprove the case and there had been speculation about other perpetrators. Thibodeaux’ confession was crucial to Thibodeaux’ evidence. Paul Connick, District Attorney, asked Welner review the evidence and to consider Thibodeaux vulnerabilities. This would help them in their decision-making. In a case where defense and prosecution cooperated with Dr. Welner, Thibodeaux was also interviewed on videotape. Welner determined that Thibodeaux’ confession was false due to physical findings which were grossly inconsistent with his statements. A 53-page opinion was issued by Welner describing the factors and causes of the false confession. The defendant’s deep guilt over his cousin’s fate, his failed polygraph and police convincing Thibodeaux that Thibodeaux had made false statements during interrogation sealed his guilt. This proved to be a turning point in his denials. Thibodeaux was released after the District Attorney learned of Dr. Welner’s findings. Crystal Champagne’s murder remains under investigation.

Welner served as a spokesperson and media coordinator for the Ross Perot presidential campaign in New York in 1992 and 1993. Welner voted in support of Perot during the 1992 election campaign.

Byran Uyesugi, a forty-year-old Xerox service technician, killed seven of his co-workers on November 2, 1999 in the worst mass murder case in the history of Hawaii. Uyesugi began working for Xerox in 1984. He began making unfounded accusations of harassment and product tampering against fellow repairmen, who had great difficulty placating his anger. Coworkers told Welner, who interviewed family, friends, neighbors, co-workers, and Uyesugi prior to trial, that as early as 1995, Uyesugi was openly speaking of carrying out a mass shooting at the workplace were he ever to be fired.

Andrea Yates was prosecuted by the State of Texas for the murder of her five children. She claimed legal insanity as a defense at trial for the murder of three of her children. In 2002, Yates was convicted of murder, and sentenced her to life imprisonment. In 2005, the conviction was overturned because the prosecution witness, Park Dietz, falsely testified that Yates’ behavior and defense was identical to an earlier episode of Law & Order. There was no such episode. In anticipation of the 2006 retrial for the drowning of her five children, prosecutors asked Welner to assess her diagnosis and Yates’ appreciation of the wrong of killing her children at the time of the crime, the criteria for legal insanity. In the videotaped interview with Welner, Yates admitted that she had actually determined to kill the children two months earlier and at a time of relative stability, and was waiting for her first occasion to be alone with them. She knew she would otherwise be stopped. Welner diagnosed Yates with psychotic depression, but concluded that she elected to kill her children because she was overwhelmed, timed with the departure of her mother-in-law that left her as sole caregiver of her five children. Welner also discovered that Andrea Yates locked up the family dog, which was usually free to run around in the house, before drowning the children. Welner included this as one of 68 examples of Yates’ appreciation of the wrong of killing her children at the time it happened.

In March 2011, Canadian Public Safety Minister Vic Toews wrote to U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, asserting that Canada would need to review the sealed tape of Welner’s interview in order to consider repatriating Khadr. After reviewing the interviews, Canada repatriated Khadr on September 29, 2012 under heavy pressure from the United States government. However, Canada echoed Welner’s previously stated concerns about the nature of Khadr’s dangerousness and placed him in a maximum security facility. In October 2013, Khadr’s prison transfer application, considered independently of Welner’s involvement, was denied. Over the objections of the Canadian government of Prime Minister Stephen Harper, a judge released Khadr to the community in 2015.

Prosecutors first involved Welner at the early stages after the arrest, before filing charges, to consider defense claims from several psychologists that Hernandez was mentally ill and intellectually disabled and falsely confessed. The defense presented multiple expert opinions in support of their claims that Hernandez was and that his confessions were unreliable. Welner interviewed Hernandez for sixteen hours, interviewed police, studied confessions he had made many years earlier to a prayer group and to a fiancée, as well as to an acquaintance, and the more recent confessions he made to police interrogators in 2012, medical staff, as well as Welner himself. Welner concluded that Hernandez confessed because he felt intense guilt and that the spontaneous, voluntary confessions Hernandez made decades earlier to a prayer group and his fiancée couldn’t be attributed to a psychiatric condition.
