Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A person who plans to kill someone for personal gain is not eligible for the insanity defense. The insanity defense is only applicable if the person has a severe mental illness or defect that prevents them from understanding the nature and consequences of their actions. In this case, Edith's statement that she planned to kill her boss for his money shows that she was aware of the nature and consequences of her actions.
