Hollywood Law | |
| Dream Lover / int_3322dd48 | comment |
Hollywood Law: Ray is committed to a mental institution when his scheming wife Lana makes him look crazy. He gets revenge by luring Lana in to visit him and killing her, proclaiming that since she's had him declared insane, he isn't legally responsible. He states, "In a year, I'll be sane again, and they'll have to let me out." It would entirely up to the psychiatrists at the institution to determine whether or not he's actually "sane" and when to release him. They may not choose to make that decision for many years, if ever. He would also still be tried, and most insanity defenses don't succeed (there is a big difference between mental illness vs. legal insanity). Statistically, people acquitted by reason of insanity tend to spend more time institutionalized than they would have in prison. | |
