Court records show Harrouff told the psychologist in the days before the murders he felt god-like, invincible, hyper and paranoid spirits would get him.

He seemingly describes the murders, describing two figures whom he attacked.

The psychologist says Harrouff was experiencing an acute psychotic episode and could not distinguish right from wrong.
