Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is D because the requirement for a GBMI (Guilty but Mentally Ill) verdict does not typically include the necessity for the defendant to have exhibited psychopathic tendencies prior to the crime. The key elements for a GBMI finding generally include proving the statutory elements for conviction, determining that the defendant was not legally insane, and finding that the defendant was mentally ill at the time the crime was committed.
