виновен, но ментално болен

виновен, но ментално болен

A finding that an offender is guilty of the criminal offense with which they are charged but, because of their prevailing mental condition, they are generally sent to psychiatric hospitals for treatment rather than to prison. Once they have been declared "cured," however, such offenders can be transferred to correctional facilities to serve out their sentences.
