What is the insanity plea? Not guilty by reason of insanity is a very specific plea that covers the intersection of the mental health system and the criminal justice system. In this lecture based class, students will be introduced to the world of forensic psychology in relation to insanity. By looking at some important insanity cases (M'Naghten and John Hinkley Jr) as well as some of the most common misconceptions about the insanity plea (how often do you think it comes up in court?), we will cover what insanity is and what happens to those who are deemed insane.

Orientación para padres
Course mentions violent crime, mental illness, and secure psychiatric facilities which may be disturbing to some students. It is not suitable for students under 17 as we will be talking about psychotic disorders (hallucinations and delusions). Violent crime will be mentioned; however, the class primarily focuses on the legal wording and implications of the plea. Discussions of dangerousness and mandatory treatment for those who are insane will also be present. Please reach out if you have questions about content. I am more than happy to provide more details.
