E53 - Insanity

Subpar Talks

We hear a lot about the insanity defense in murder cases, but the reality is that it’s hardly ever used and even when it is, it’s hardly every successful. But what does it mean to be “insane?” This week we look at a current case juxtaposed with the assassination attempt of Ronald Reagan, and learn how the insanity defense changed in this country. Also, what are the most widely read books of all time? Chris had the unenviable task of venturing into a government office, and we end up with some questions.
