From The Front Fuller Continued From Page One March 3, termed Fuller an antisocial sociopath and a potential danger to society. "Persons with antisocial behavior have not internalized appropriate conduct and functioning," Hester said. "They have a lack of conscience, and they don't feel remorse or what effects their behavior have on others and their welfare.

They view people as objects who can be manipulated and used."

The Associated Press and the Texas Daily Newspaper Association. sistant County Attorney Kerye Ashmore, Hester testified Fuller exhibited many of the traits associated with antisocial behavior, including finding "excitement in doing the forbidden; planning and executing the forbidden; (obtaining) money and cars to accentuate their self-importance; poor impulse control; wanting is synonymous with having." "Would you agree with me that they lack empathy, consideration of others, they often dehumanize their victims such as torture or whipping, and they are liars?" Ashmore asked.

"Yes," responded Hester. "They give the impression of being trustworthy and honest when that's not really true?" "Yes." "They lie under any circumstances, even to the point of believing it themselves?" "Yes, that can happen." "They cast blame on others and rationalize their actions? They have difficulty, maintaining monogamous relationships? Women are sexual objects to them?" "Yes." "Do you consider the defendant to be a dangerous person?" "Yes, I would." Hester said Puller also showed traits of having a passive- aggressive personality complex. Such persons typically have marginal functioning abilities, deal poorly with authority figures and tend to deal with those problems passively, rather than directly. "Mr. Fuller is sensitive to the needs of others.

He is very imposed to hitting women and has respect for his family. He has some traditional moral values interjected with some antisocial values," said Hester. "I found that early in his childhood he was exposed to violence and family discords physical violence between his mother and father. He had very poor parental role models." Hester told the jury that a life sentence would allow Fuller an opportunity for treatment of his personality disorders, with hopes of overcoming them. Still, Hester said both murder and speeding through a school zone could both be considered antisocial acts and that predicting future dangerous acts is difficult.

"Yes, it is possible to predict future acts of violence, though not accurately. It's a 50-50 chance he will or he won't." Another defense witness, Prof. Jim Markhorth of Sam Houston State University, an expert in criminology, testified regarding a study he did of 69 Texas Department of Corrections inmates who had their sentences commuted or dismissed. Of six of those who had since reentered society, only one had committed a subsequent violent act, a murder. But again under cross- examination from Ashmore, the professor, who admitted he disagreed with Texas' special issue question regarding future dangerousness, acknowledged statistics show that only one crime in every 25 results in an arrest and agreed that anyone could commit crimes and not be caught.

Also, the six former death row inmates studied had only been reintroduced into society for less than five years. Defense character witnesses to testify included two Merico employees who supervised Fuller when he was employed there in 1982 and 1983. Fuller was fired from that job, where he was said to have been earning approximately $6.50 per hour, because of his being jailed on a burglary charge. Testimony had been entered Tuesday that Fuller had twice previously been convicted of burglary and twice sent to prison. Both former supervisors said Fuller was a good employee who worked productively and never caused problems.

Also testifying was a former Sunday school teacher and a former assistant principal at Paris High School who said the most trouble he remembered concerning Fuller was truancy problems. Eric Tate, vice president; Homer Thornton, treasurer; and Linda Suarez, secretary. Other members included David Denny, Bill Kennedy, Barry Russell, Paul Trull and Susan Swint.

"I also would like to see more parents get involved in the actions and activities within the school district," he said. "Our children and our money are invested in the schools.

Crime pays up to $1,000 cash for information leading to an arrest and grand jury EMS Calls Continued From Page One "Last fall, I learned firsthand what it's like to have reporters looking up every friend you've had in the last 60 years, or asking what you ate for breakfast," he said. Tower supporters temporarily were cheered by Bentsen's decision.

"I think that the timing would have been better if it came earlier in the debate. But at this stage, 111 take him any time I can get him," said Tower friend Paul Eggers. But Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell, D-Maine, had already told reporters he didn't need Bentsen's vote. And after Bentsen spoke, four Democrats considered as possible swing votes announced they were against the nominee. Bentsen's decision was consistent with his position in January when he presented Tower to the Senate Armed Services Committee, praising him as a good choice not only for hawks but for liberals critical of Pentagon overspending.
