...Estes, Patrick Fostso, Jennia McCray, Yasmine McGee, Inga Payne CJA/354 October 22, 2012 Samara Belgarde, J.D. Insanity Defense The criminal justice system in America is one of the fair systems in the world where anyone will be innocent until proven of guilt. The whole concept of the court system emphasizes how our laws work regardless where we come from and how we look like or healthy or not anyone is entitles of due process. The idea that our justice and court system are fair to anyone on trial due to an arrest by probable cause and sentencing by a verdict guilty and not guilty of the jury. In the case or State v. Stu Dents, where the defendant was accused of killing his former girlfriend. We are going to elaborate how the charge of insanity can be plead in the defense case and in the other hand give some understanding how this plead play a role in the defendant case during the trial and after the trial in some states and particular California. Does your team feel this defendant is competent to stand trial? Why or why not? We believe that the defendant may not be competent to stand trial, due to the fact that he had has emotionally and mental issues. The defendant has no knowledge of the crime or its consequences, if put on the stand he may revert back to that emotional state of mind and will not be able to give and accurate statement and will not be able to understand charges and sentencing. What is required in your state for an insanity defense? First of all...

...In Poe’s story, the repetitive beating of the old man’s heart served as the peak for the narrator’s insanity. He says, “I fancied a ringing in my ears: but still they sat and still chatted. The ringing became more distinct:-It continued and became more distinct.” ( Poe 16 ) By hearing the repetitive but random ringing, the narrator’s sanity continued to deteriorate. In Dickinson’s poem, the repetitive sound of an instrument leads her down the path of insanity further. She hears, “A service like a drum kept beating, beating, till I thought my mind was going numb.” ( Dickinson 6-8) The repeated beating of the drum began numbing her mind, which helped in the decline of her sanity. In both Poe and Dickinson’s works, both use repetitive ideas to showcase the decline in one’s...

... Through the setting, characters, and symbolism, Poe reveals the message that phobias can cause people to lose their sanity. The setting in "The Masque of the Red Death" symbolizes Prince Prospero's mind and his isolation from the terror that haunt him. The story demonstrates this by taking place in a palace that exists detached from the chaos outside. Everyone in the fortress remains oddly cheerful even though an unruly disease kills people outside the castle walls. In actuality, the villa symbolizes the Prince's mind and his mental solitude from the...

...Reconciliation What is sanity? Some might say that sanity is the ability to see the world, as it is right now. If that is the case, how can we ever know, if anyone is sane? The question of sanity becomes topical in the short story "Reconciliation" written by Polly Clark in 2006 and the word reconciliation has a very central meaning for the main character. The main character and narrator, Laura seems to see the world a little bit different from other people. The narrator of the short story is a first-person narrator, and therefore she is, by definition, subjective. The story she tells us is seen from her point of view, and it is always a problem, if only one point of view is used on actions. Especially if the narrator has problems seeing the world as it really is. The narrator's mind seems to be quite untidy. At first, she forgets to bring proper shoes to work, and then she decides to explain it with mountaineering. That is probably one of the worst possible excuses for forgetting anything. This tells us, that the narrator's sense of occasion and sense of order is not the best. Furthermore, she tells us, that she has dry washed her hair, probably without success. That also does not witness about the greatest sense of order. Perhaps the narrator is looking for order. It could be, that she continuously searches amongst others for the one thing she cannot produce herself. It seems that the narrator is in a drastic psychological development. She is married, but yet she wants...

...preliminary design work is reduced to solving the simple tasks that have already been identified. The developers communicate directly with customers and other developers to understand the initial requirements. They start with a very simple task and then get feedback by testing their software as soon as it is developed. The system is delivered to the customers as soon as possible, and the requirements are refined or added based on customer feedback. In this way, requirements evolve over a period of time, and developers are able to respond quickly to changes. The real design effort occurs when the developers write the code to fulfill the specific engineering task. The engineering task is a part of a greater user story (which is similar to a use case). The user story concerns itself with how the overall system solves a particular problem. It represents a part of the functionality of the overall system. A group of user stories is capable of describing the system as a whole. The developers refactor the previous code iteration to establish the design needed to implement the functionality. During the Extreme Programming development life cycle, developers usually work in pairs. One developer writes the code for a particular feature, and the second developer reviews the code to ensure that it uses simple solutions and adheres to best design...

...The Tell Tale Heart, a literary masterpiece by Edgar Allan Poe. Esteemed by many, but narrated by a potential madman. The narrator attempts to make a case throughout the story of how his acts are deliberate and thoughtful. Although, throughout the story as the narrator insists he is mentally stable, the tone and phrasing of his words does nothing, but emphasize his ravings as those of a madman. The narrator’s arguments are based on nothing more than persistence, narcissism, and a reliance on the readers trust in a narrator’s facts to be unquestionably authentic. With every mention of the narrator’s sanity and the possibility of his mental instability he persists in dispute that he is no madman. The over emphasis of this causes the legitimacy of the narrator’s claims to appear fabricatedand even add to the counter case. In addition, at a point he is unsure of the reason for the murder: “I think it was his eye! Yes, it was this!” A sane man would never forget a reason to even provoke the thought of murder, let alone persuade the action. Every night he would come and watch the old man sleep for eight nights, clearly he had been thinking about it and...

...One also has to take into account that the director clearly depicts Joan of Arc being raised during war time, and because of this, what she sees in her "vision" can most easily be attributed to what she saw growing up daily. The war like portrayal of Joan of Arc comes in when the audience first sees Joan as an adult. In this scene, the king received her letter and it is revealed that she is writing to him in regards to gaining an army of men for herself so she can go into battle. Because of the earlier portrayal of Joan and her visions, this scene came across as Joan wanting to push her own agenda, rather than fulfill her visions purpose. The portrayal of Joan of Arc leads into the relevant themes throughout the movie. Joan's sanity is a continuing theme throughout the film, most obviously seen when she has her visions. Watching the scenes in modern day, it is obvious that...

...clearly negative portrayal which is hard not to adopt. Being written during a time when lobotomies were still widely practiced, I believe it is an excellent resource and one that serves to highlight its detrimental effects to the public. Along with providing us with insight into the horrors of a lobotomy, Kesey gives us added insight into the lives of patients in the psychiatric ward famously used as a metaphor for the oppressive nature of 1950’s American society. This symbolic novel relays the story of an inmate standing up against the powerful forces that operate a mental institution, but it represents much more than just a classic case of “man versus establishment”. The questions raised by Kesey are almost as chilling as his horrific tales of inmate abuse. He compels us to think about just how thin the line is that separates insanity from sanity and treatment from control. The lobotomy is the establishments way of quieting the unruly protests of those brave enough to speak their minds. The audience realizes that the therapy doesn’t function to...

...Introduction In this paper, you will read about the different insanity statutes being used in our country and a little about how they became our insanity statutes. I am going to discuss which insanity statute is being used in the state I live in and how often it is used. Since we will know how often this defense is used, you will also learn how successful it is. I will discuss the major criticisms and whether the psychologist should provide an ultimate opinion in sanity cases. Lastly, we will learn about some of the difficulties in providing appropriate psychological treatment for the mentally ill who are not seen as insane and are subsequently convicted of their charges, while incarcerated. The Insanity Defense During a pretrial a defendant may opt to plea “not guilty by reason of insanity” (NGRI). The insanity statutes are; The M’Naughten Rule, Model Penal Code (which is now known as the Brawner Rule). “The M’Naughten rule was developed to determine whether or not an individual accused of a crime was mentally ill at the time the crime was committed, and if they would be held criminally responsible for their “wrongdoing” (M’Naughten Rule, n.d.). The Brawner Rule “states that a defendant is not responsible for criminal conduct if he, ‘at the time of such conduct as a result of mental disease or defect, [lacks] substantial capacity either to appreciate the criminality [wrongfulness] of his conduct or to conform his conduct to the requirements of the law’” (Greene, 2010 p 210)...

...{A Case Study of Madness } Robert “Devin” Earl {Friday, February 5, 2016} Throughout Edgar Allen Poe’s work Tell Tale Heart several patterns, and symbolic elements are present. Each of these elements play respective roles in revealing the purpose of the work as a whole. Poe wants to convey a feeling of paranoia and mental illness. Its as if Poe wants his work to function as a summary of a case study about mental deterioration. He uses his diction purposefully and scarcely in order to have the main character convey a feeling of obsession with very specific entities of the old man. The main character has a unhealthy fixation on the old man’s eye, his heartbeat and even his claim to sanity. As the story progresses sever different psychological contradictions come to illumination that each contribute to the general profile of a murder. In example the narrator openly admits “to being dreadfully nervous”, however he is unable to comprehend why he is thought of as deranged He articulates his self-defense against madness in terms of increased sensory ability. Instead of of viewing this hypersensitivity as a clue to being mentally unwell the narrator uses it to prove to himself his possession of sanity and not a product of madness. Another symbolic element that proves Poe is conveying a study of the mentally unstable is the narrator’s detachment between emotional feelings such as love and hate. Poe uses his story to explore a psychological paradox between those who cannot truly...

...In the beginning Macbeth’s prospects look very adjective. Infact, even better than good considering how well his victories are earning him rewards per say. However, as soon as Duncan is murdered, the guilt from the action begins to affect his sleep and consequently his sanity. Macbeth exclaims to Llady Macbeth, “Methought I heard a voice cry, “Sleep no more! Macbeth does murder sleep”—the innocent sleep\ Sleep that knits up the raveled sleave of care,\ The death of each day’s life, sore labor’s bath,\ Balm of hurt minds, great nature’s second course,\ Chief nourisher in life’s feast” (2.2.35-36). Not only does Macbeth begin to hear voices which in no way is a positive effect but also he feels as though in a way he has murdered the innocent sleep. Through Macbeth’s words, his feelings that sleep is the solution to all problems as well ahas a crucial part of what makes life worth living are shown. This feeling that he has lost the one thing that truly acts as a brace and to an extent make life worthwhile, slowly...

...Metamorphosis of King Lear Through the course of the play, King Lear goes through a process of attaining self-knowledge. With this knowledge, he goes through a metamorphosis of person, much like a caterpillar's change into a butterfly. In the beginning, King Lear's vanity, and the image and exercise of power dominate his person. But a series of losses (based on his own bad decisions), a wise "fool", a powerful storm, a seemingly crazy man, and the death of one who truly loved him clear his vision and allow him to see himself and the world as they truly are. The pain and suffering endured by Lear eventually tears down his strength and sanity. Lear is not as strong, arrogant, and filled with pride as he seems in the beginning of the play. Instead he a is weak, scared and confused old man. At the end of the play Lear has completely lost his sanity with the loss of his daughter, Cordelia and this is the breaking point that leads Lear to his death. In the beginning, King Lear shows his need for praise is how he chooses to divide his kingdom among his daughters. The one who praises him with the most "love" shall receive the largest area of land. This is even more evident when considering that Lear already has divided up the kingdom before the praising even begins, as he gives each daughter her land before hearing the next daughter's praise. Thus the entire arbitration is just a show and an ego boost to himself. It is because of his love for praise that makes him react so strongly...
