An avid Dungeons & Dragons player "became his fantasy" when he slashed his co-worker to death with a homemade sword in October 2004, his attorney said Wednesday.
The defense attorney said his client was in the throes of a schizophrenic episode on Oct. 27, 2004, and believed he was a ninja killing a foe when he attacked and killed his 43-year-old co-worker.
The prosecutor said she believes the accused actions were not based on fantasy. She said his was instead acting out his "own grudge and own anger" against the victim and his other co-workers who he thought were bullying him over his obsession with fantasy-based games, his black nail polish and other eccentricities.
