Richard Bain returned to the stand Tuesday where he continued to say he doesn't remember anything from the night of the shooting at Metropolis.
He repeated that his last memory of the night in question was of taking his anti-depressants at around 6:30 p.m. that evening – but that he does remember the second round of questioning by investigators.
Bain also said he had a vision of his late mother who appeared in front of him and said, "Richard, what are they doing to us?"
Afterwards he said he had a total blackout and doesn't remember speaking to the police that night.
The court played a recording of his first police interrogation which took place around five hours after his arrest.
In the video, Bain doesn't speak very much and appears to be half asleep. He complains that he has a headache and says he doesn't understand anything the police are telling him.
Asked by a detective what murder and attempted murder charges mean to him, Bain mumbles, "I don't know."
However, when asked if he wants a lawyer he clearly indicates that he wants civil rights lawyer Julius Grey.
Eventually the officers in the video give up and call Urgences Sante to see if Bain needed medical assistance.
On Tuesday afternoon the court showed the second interrogation video which Bain says he does remember.
Bain appears more alert in this video, answering police directly and reciting the Lord’s Prayer, adding, "If I ever needed you, it's now."
He was also seen eating a sandwich, singing and humming.
The charges include first-degree murder in the shooting death of lighting technician Denis Blanchette and attempted murder after the same bullet hit another stagehand, David Courage.
Bain has pleaded not guilty to all six charges, including three of attempted murder and two that are arson-related.
