Among the pieces of evidence released Thursday in the penalty phase of the Joshua Komisarjevsky trial was this hospital discharge file. Also released were numerous photographs of Komisarjevsky as a child.

Joshua Komisarjevsky’s father testified Thursday that he never saw a report from a psychiatric hospital that his son “enjoys violence” and “likes to fight.”

During cross-examination by State’s Attorney Michael Dearington, Benedict Komisarjevsky said, “I can’t recall a time when he loved violence.”

The elder Komisarjevsky also testified Wednesday as the defense team showed photos of the younger Komisarjevsky as a child.
