"Kreutzer did not plead insanity. However, his appeal lawyers argued that his original defenders did not properly marshal the information, expertise and arguments regarding his mental health that may have served as mitigating factors and avoided a death sentence." And on the endless saga goes. Does anyone today remember this depressing specimen's victim, Major Badger.

Kreutzer's lawyers did not dispute that he was the killer. If I recall correctly he fired from concealment, andtried to get away after he shot. This suggests to me he wasn't insane- i.e. he knew he shouldn't be doing what he was doing.
