What is the name of your state? Ohio
I have posted a couple of questions about my son being stabbed last year and the legal proceedings thus far. Yesterday, the defendant entered a plea of not guilty by reason of insanity. Apparently he has been diagnosed paranoid schizophrenic since he has been in prison on an unrelated case. Frankly, I don't buy it. I have known this person for 15 years. I've never seen any signs that he was paranoid, or any signs of schizophrenia. I know, I'm not a doctor. I'm just so angry right now.
Can someone please tell me what to expect next? What happens when an NGRI plea is entered? If he is found to be "insane", does he just walk?
