The odd interlacing of the fingers, and the tightness of the grasp. You can see the muscle tension in the top of the left hand.
Also, maybe it's just the photo quality, but his hands look really pale compared to the skin on the face & neck.

A Saturday afternoon. He threw on a jacket and a MAGA hat, came in and gave a “I don’t care” appearance, and left. It set the tone for the rest of his disaster handling of the whole thing.

He was released because of his advanced syphilis.
He had reverted to the mental state of a preteen boy and was no longer considered a danger.
As there was no cure, they sent him home to die there.
