Qué contiene

Resumen con IA When a person is found not guilty because of insanity, a court must decide if they should stay in a mental health facility. This law gives judges a specific list of things to look at, such as a person's past behavior and mental health history, to decide if they are still dangerous. It also says a judge cannot decide someone is safe just because they haven't acted out recently. (Todavía no está traducido al español.)1
