holding that impaired judgment and irrational thinking did not warrant an exceptional sentence
rejecting no prior criminal history, emotional and psychological stress, and impaired capacity as mitigating circumstances
rejecting no prior criminal history, emotional and psychological stress, and impaired capacity as mitigating circumstances
under RCW 9.94A.390(l)(e), a defendant’s impaired judgment and irrational thinking may be considered as a mitigating factor only if the court finds that those problems significantly impaired the defendant’s capacity to appreciate the wrongfulness of his conduct and to conform to the law
fact that \`defendant has never before been convicted of a crime'\ may not be used as a mitigating factor because criminal history is one of the components used to compute the standard range (quoting State v. Pascal, 108 Wn.2d at 137)
