16. Drug addicts cannot get NGRI (not guilty by reason of insanity.)

Thu Dec 18, 2025, 07:53 AM

And it is hard to get NGRI when it is obviously a premeditated murder.
Killing people in their bed as they sleep is not in the heat of an argument.
It is a cold blooded decision to murder them before he arrived to the home.
This is not acute psychosis.

But of course rich people can commit crimes and get away with it.
They hire attorneys who don't care about justice.

Also this guy is dangerous. His attorney doesn't care about that either.
He just wants the billable hours to get rich off the family's tragedy.
