Summary:

The prosecution's first rebuttal witness began with qualifications and method; no case-specific opinion had been stated by the noon cutoff.

Body:

[VERIFIED FACT] After the defense rested, the Commonwealth called Aram Mack, who identified himself as a psychiatrist and professor with board certifications in psychiatry, child and adolescent psychiatry, and forensic psychiatry. [SWORN TESTIMONY] He said the prosecution retained him for an independent review and began explaining general forensic methodology and Massachusetts criminal responsibility. [UNKNOWN] His direct examination was still underway, so this card does not state his ultimate case opinion or a complete rebuttal roster.

Structured claims:
- [sworn_testimony] Aram Mack identified himself as a psychiatrist and professor at Thomas Jefferson University with board certifications in psychiatry, child and adolescent psychiatry, and forensic psychiatry.
