Criminally Insane Novelas e Histórias

Douglas chastised after taking me to a private chamber to calm me down. "This is absurd, Douglas. There was no temporary insanity. Or hell, maybe there was. Maybe that's what happens in the mind of every criminal. They just lose it and do something stupid. By all means, let's give them all a free pass." The sarcasm dripped from my lips like thick molasses. "Get it out. Say whatever you need to say in order to go sit back in that courtroom looking poised."

Erica, who had already lost her life, shouldn't have to face such a result. Darren sighed softly and shook his head at the puzzled police officers. The officers withdrew from the room. As he sat her back down, he kissed her cheek soothingly before saying softly, "It doesn't matter if she's pretending or not. I'll make her madness a reality. Hannah, just rest assured. She won't get away with it." Karen would be naive if she thought that pleading insanity would allow one to escape from responsibilities. A murderer gone mad would be a social threat and danger. Therefore, they would be sent to a mental hospital for proper care to prevent them from going mad and killing people again.

He couldn’t believe he’d had anything to do with such a slimy bitch and… “Erm… according to the file here….” Mr Paul started glancing at the papers in his hands, “She has Brain Cancer, bipolar disorders and some other mental disorder that wasn’t disclosed here. It is to note that she’d associated with hard drugs and overdosed on a certain medication that is not stated here too. All these were before the attacks on you and Miss Madison, and right now, her lawyer and father are claiming that she was not in the right senses when she committed all those crimes.” “What!” Damien and Madison both said in unison, their eyes straying until they met each other, and at the same time, their jaw dropped

- he added, looking at Laurens with obvious contempt. - I would like to recall the testimony of my client, confirmed by the evidence I have collected.- Alair spoke up.- Laurens Vermeulen experienced a trauma in his childhood, which was aggravated by his unsuccessful relationship later... Which certainly had an impact on his psyche, so it would not be strange if he had any problems of a psychological nature.- he remarked, looking first at the judge, and then at the prosecutor.- In my opinion Laurens Vermeulen have, at the least, diminished capacity to know that what he did was wrong, it is also very possible that he was insane when committing the crimes. That is why I am requesting, on behalf

Far from that bastard. Should I try drowning him? No. I don’t want to be a criminal! I’m not such a person, unlike that bitch. Tch! And besides, I don’t hate Gavin… much It’s weird that I can’t understand him and he’s making my life miserable yet I don’t hate him much! Maybe I got infected by his weirdness. Unfortunately, I also met some weird people in a short period of time making it more infectious. Should I be scared if one day I’ll become insane if I stay here for a bit longer?

Her lawyer had argued from the beginning for a psychiatric framework — erotomania, the clinical term, a delusional disorder in which a person believes someone of higher status is in love with them. The prosecution did not dispute the diagnosis. What they disputed was whether the diagnosis diminished Claire's criminal responsibility for seven years of documented harassment, the drugging, the fabricated evidence, and the coordinated campaign she had willingly participated in. The jury took six hours. They found that the diagnosis explained the origin of her behaviour without excusing the extent of it. Guilty on the drugging charge. Guilty on fraud. Guilty on harassment. Guilty on conspiracy.

But what struck me most was the look in her eyes. Blank. Like no one was home. Her lawyer stood. Slick suit. Too confident. “Your Honor, my client intends to plead not guilty by reason of insanity,” he said smoothly. “She was experiencing a drug-induced psychotic episode, exacerbated by untreated bipolar disorder and borderline personality disorder. She was not in control of her actions, nor capable of understanding the consequences.” Bullshit. My nails dug into Stacy’s thigh. “She obtained a firearm. She waited outside his clinic. She pulled the trigger,” I whispered.

Defiant. "Your crimes are severe. Deliberate. Sustained over a decade. You conducted experiments without consent. You caused deaths through procedures you knew were dangerous. You permanently altered human beings for research purposes. You showed no remorse during trial and have expressed no regret afterward. These are some of the most heinous crimes imaginable. Crimes that in any functioning legal system would warrant maximum punishment." Catherine looked at the rescued subjects.

They agreed with her lawyer in most of their arguments, so much that Serena's lawyers were worried it was a trap. But Serena was delusional. She believed Claudia had bought them off and kept her promise since she never snitched. For this reason, her case had been the quickest to be concluded. "The Court finds the defendant not criminally responsible by reason of temporary insanity during the time of the crimes." The judge paused, allowing the words to settle over the courtroom. He’d been bought too. But it didn't matter. He already had the reputation as a corrupt judge. "The defendant is hereby committed to a secure psychiatric facility for treatment."
