  • concluding that, just after the attempted murder, defendant's statement to eyewitness that \they had to leave\ suggested sanity
  • noting that our supreme court in Thompson reaffirmed that the finder of fact is entitled to decide whether to credit the opinions of experts on insanity, even in the absence of lay witness testimony
  • “The ‘insanity’ defense is an affirmative defense for which the burden of proof is on the defendant.”
